This guy has the sign of someone who knows his shit but also someone who
might possibly kill a person for looking at him wrong.
Crazy how no matter what plan you look at, be it something as simple as
four exercises, or a crazy plan involving all kinds of whacky shit,
everyone says to do deadliest and squats, yet there’s NEVER a group
gathered around the squat rack.
I despise front squats. HATE them. Every time I try my wrists feel like
they’re gonna snap. I’ve done them with personal trainers (two different
ones), in front of a mirror… everything. I hate them. I’ll stick to my
back squat and behind-the-back-deadlifts thanks :)
My 4 are :
1. Squats
2. deadlifts
3. Bench Press
4. Bent over rows.
I appreciate how practical and articulate you are. You might consider
losing the foul language because you really don’t need it. It simply
detracts from the exceptional content you are delivering. I would love for
my sons to hear you explain these things but would be hesitant to because
of just a couple words (totally gratuitous) in the entire clip. It’s funny
how so many feel compelled to use them even though they are totally
unnecessary. Hope you will accept that as constructive criticism to help
your channel grow. Thanks for the excellent content.
It hurts.
Just cracked off some work… good lord I have slipped far!
Deadlifts, 90lbs + bar. 2 sets of 5 reps only.
Front squats, couldn’t do… legs and butt knotted up!! Shitty.
Wide grip pulldowns, 110 lbs, 2 sets… 8 reps and 8 reps only
Dips..body weight… 6 reps and 8 reps. Both were only ¾ depth lowered.
Wow. Really bummed out about where I once was and where I am now. But…
turning 49 I guess I should know better. Going to go for a short walk
tonight, roll things out and come Friday I should be healed enough to go at
it again.
Decided on the 4 basic exercises to get my foundation back in the game
first.

Anyone else just started up again? Thinking about it? Come join me by
sharing back and forth what we got done. If I guilt you that I put in a
session and you haven’t yet… it might be motivation to get one in right?
Or vice versa.
I can’t believe he said dips instead of bench/dumbell press smh
i found a good comment guys,
Dips: chest, triceps, shoulders; this is your “push” exercise and it works
all your pushing muscles
Pull ups: lats, biceps, rear delts; this is your “pull” exercise and it
works all your pulling muscles (besides maybe traps)
Deadlift: works basically every muscle, self-explanatory
Squats: best exercise for legs, nuf said
So yeah, these exercises, as Elliott explained, are great for overall
strength, flexibility, and muscular balance. If you work them all equally
you will have no muscular imbalances, unless of course you have imbalances
prior to starting the program, which is not uncommon.
I honestly think that it should be mandatory to watch this video before
stepping into a gym for the first time. I see way too many beginners come
into the gym and swing some 20 pound dumbbells around in attempt to do
curls and they think that this will make them buff lol.
But I digress. The point is, if you do just these 4 exercises (with good
form and a good diet, of course) you will become both strong and aesthetic.
I’d recommend doing each exercise twice a week, giving you a 4 day split
(ie. dips/deadlifts on Monday and Thursday, pull ups/squats on Tuesday and
Friday)
1. Bench Press
2. Standing Calf Raises
3. Curls
4. Squats
These are important, but Military Press is also as important as dips and
pull ups.
I do calisthenics, are these exercises good or should i mix them up? Would
be happy to hear from anybody 🙂
1. Squats
2. Push ups
3. Crunches/leg raises
4. Pull ups
The best videos and information on the net!
Anyway i could get a kettlebell version? Would kettlebell deadlift,
kettlebell squat, Swing and Snatch work? Great vid btw
this guy reminds me of SPAWN…
I’d say do a lower body exercise, a push exercise, and a pull exercise on a
day. Nect time pick 3 different variations. Grips can be changed (or foot
position) to target different muscles slightly, and the angle of the pull
or push can also be changed.
examples:
Deadlift (Yes it’s a lower body exercise. It mainly targets the hams,
glutes, and lower back)
Bench press
Pull ups
back high bar squat
over head press
Bent over rows
low bar squat
Dips
chin-ups
high bar squat
incline bench press
underhand griped rows
Stiff legged deadlifts
decline bench oress
neutral grip pull ups
front squats
close grip bench press
wide grip rows
Is it bad that I don’t know what dips are? I got to get my dip game on for
2015 – will start by finding out what they are.
Elliot Hulse is such a valuable resource.
what was that about the abdominal wall? and these excercises would get u
ripped abs would it? i still like it though, also are other people wrong
who say u need to do a few different excercises per muscle?
1. 500/600sit ups
2. 10 sets of bicep curls to failure
3. bench
4. bench
Deadlifts, Dips, Front Squats, and Pull/Chin Up variations. Alright.
You had a golden opportunity to ‘SHOW’ the 4 exercises you talked about –
you failed to retain my interest in your channel – pity really.
can’t stand this fucking bro scientist. the ultimate fucking meathead.
1. Deadlift
2. [Front-] Squats
3. Chin-ups / Pull-ups
4. Overhead Press
5. [normal or close grip] Bench Press
6. Bent over rows / dumbell rows
(Optional: Dips & [Power-] Clean)
You’re insane.Deadlifts are worst exercise,you are practicly begging for
lower back injury if you do deadlifts.Smarten up kid don’t talk nonsense.
For me :
Squat
Bench press
Bicep bar curls
Deadlifts
