If you are looking to put on some serious weight, I mean muscle of course, then you need to be doing these 3 workouts. Squats, bench presses, and dead lifts.
Why you ask? Because each one of these exercises uses a mixture of muscles. Each of these exercise programmes will compel your body to become larger and stronger. It might not occur overnite, but you can habitually add pounds every week. Let's take a more in-depth look into each exercise.
The bench press is a upper body workout. It works out over 7 different muscles with just the one lift. Including, your shoulders, triceps, and your chest. The bench press is preformed by grabbing the bar a little wider than shoulder width apart, bringing down the weights until your elbows sink below your body on the bench, then squeezing your chest to push the bar back up. That was one repetition.
You will see that I advised you to stop lowering the bar before you hit your chest. When you're lifting heavy weight it can do even more damage than help if you drop the bar all the way down to your chest. Since you are attempting to gain muscle mass, the more weight the better. There are upset arguments on how low to drop the bar in a bench press. However if you watch a professional muscle-builder, they don't touch their chest with the bar.
Next is the squat. The squat is a compound, full body exercise that trains essentially the muscles of the upper legs, hips and ass, quads, hamstrings, as well as bolstering the bones, ligaments and insertion of the tendons across the lower body. Essentially from your waist down is being used during this exercise. Like I revealed before the compound workout will help you gain strength and muscle if you perform it in the correct way.
This exercising is preformed by holding a bar on the back of your neck. Hands about shoulder width apart. While keeping your back straight you'll be wanting to flex your knees, and stick your buttocks out to lower your self close to the ground. The lower you go the more you will work your legs. Then you raise yourself back up. Do not lock your knees! This will slowly ruin them. Stop the lift just before you lock your knees. Keep good form, this is great lower body workout. But performing it wrongly can have harsh complication.
Last we will look at the dead lift. The deadlift is a weight training exercise where a loaded barbell is lifted off the ground from a stabilised, bent over position. It is one of the 3 canonical powerlifting exercises, together with the squat and bench press.
To perform one of those lifts, grab your barbell with an overhand-underhand grip about shoulder width apart. Keeping your back straight, lift with your legs. Be certain to hold that bar as near to your shins as you are able to. All of the way up the bar should be inside a half an inch of your body.
Keep lifting the bar with your legs till your body is completely vertical. Then hold the position for a second, and reverse on the way down. You don't lift this weight with your arms. Your arms will stay straight the entire time.
