Title: Top 5..
Post by: Brixtonbulldog on November 22, 2009, 09:10:51 PM

Let's say you could only do 5 different weightlifting exercises for the rest of your life.  Which would you choose with a priority on overall athletic strength and health?  Doesn't count bodyweight stuff life push ups, pull ups, crunches. etc.

1.  Deadlift
2.  Power clean to push press
3.  Squat
4.  Bench press
5.  Any kind of rows
