“The Big Six” movements you should have in your workout programming
Thread👇

1. Horizontal push (e.g. bench press)
These movements work your chest primarily, triceps & delts as secondary
You can do any variation (incline, decline) of bench press to target your entire pectoral muscles
Use proper form and leave the ego at at the door on this exercise

2. Vertical push (e.g. overhead press)
Vertical push movements should be a staple in your routine.
Having strong shoulders makes life a heck of a lot easier + your shoulders can make or break your entire physique
Prioritize the vertical push.

3. Horizontal pull (e.g. barbell row)
This movement will work your mid/upper back mostly, with lower back and biceps/forearms as secondary
Excellent and necessary movement for good back development
Get strong on these and you will look thick

4. Vertical pull (e.g. weighted pull ups, lat pull down)
The lats become the primary target with this movement.
Get really strong on these and you will have a wide V-tapered back.
Strengthen your back and ALL of your major lifts will improve.

5. Lower body push (e.g. squat)
Squat is the #1 lower body & core exercise in my opinion, also my favorite
Squats use all muscles in your legs
Neglect your legs and you’re not doing yourself any favors!
(Life is easier if you have a strong set of legs too, just saying)

6. Lower body pull (e.g. deadlift)
Unarguably one of the best mass building exercises
Uses pretty much every muscle in the body.
However, more muscles used = more chance of injury
So take your time building your strength on this movement
And learn to brace properly!
