 Question is from Michael Salzel. If you had to add an exercise to the big four to make it the big five, which exercise would it be? So I'm assuming the big, because it's the big three, but easily number four, I would consider overhead press. So squat, bench, deadlift, overhead press. Okay. That's, that would be the big four, right? So what do you guys think would be a fifth exercise? If you had to throw it in there, either, either a bent over row, um, would be in there. Here's the thing, you're, I mean, you're, you're doing an incredible job with those big four of kind of attacking everything, right? You're, there's not a part of them. There's not a muscle that is not going to get worked if you do the big four. But I think another just staple, uh, exercise that has so much value, uh, a bent over row, maybe that's what I was going to say. Yeah. I would say either a row or a pull up or a lunge, maybe. Yeah. I was actually going to go in the lunge direction, mainly because if I could say like a multi-directional lunge, so that way I get more planes of, of, uh, you know, represented in this, uh, you know, list. But again, that's from the functional side of, of my thought process. Yeah. No, I like that. I like thinking of something that's either, you know, rotational or anti-rotational. So you get some benefits there that, that I think are, are incredible. The reason why these exercises are called the big three or big four or whatever is because the, just the, the results you get from these exercises. Yeah. They're just huge bang for your buck. It's really, really hard. And of course this isn't going to be true for every single person, but it's true for most people that, uh, you know, for leg development, for example, um, or lower body strength, functional strength and lower body development, it's hard to find one exercise that could compete with a squat for most people. Right. Um, you know, bench press, great horizontal pressing movement. You're getting the chest and the shoulders and the trices overhead press, very important to be able to lift something up above your head. A deadlift, you've got the hip hinging, but I think a row or a pull up because, uh, probably a row because you're not getting that like full extension and retraction that, that pulling back of the shoulder blades. Right. I think that would be better. And if you just combine those, and it's funny, that's like basically the workout I did for a while when I was a kid. Really? I was like, yeah, I was like, those five and I got the best gains doing just those, oh, if you have to reduce it all down. You're hitting like from every angle. It is. Um, you know, I would even make this argument. I would even say that the big three, you could probably interchange bench press and overhead press in terms of functional. Wouldn't you guys, what do you guys think? Well, that's why I think that makes it the big four, right? The four would be the overhead press. Like you got to have, I feel like that needs to be in there. It's just way too functional, uh, and not enough people have the ability anymore to even press things with full extension over their head. Totally. And you know, the more you really, when you really break down like human function and the things that we're supposed to be able to do, um, believe it or not, running is probably going to be up there. Um, it's something that we just don't do and we suck at. And, but it takes a long time. It takes a long time of training and mobility work to get there. It's just not one of the, to that point, that's why I'm making the case for like lunging, uh, is I think because we spend most of our time on, on one leg, you know, we're technically, uh, we don't walk with both feet together. We'd be hopping everywhere. Now from, from an aesthetic standpoint, if you're thinking like just developing an aesthetic body, um, I'd then, I'd say the row, right? It would have to be the row because the deadlift, although it hits the back, it doesn't, uh, fully get that, I guess that shoulder blade pullback position that you would get with the barbell row, but I get those will probably be the most important exercises. I'd say this, if you're working out and you're not doing those movements weekly, uh, you're probably missing out. Now it depends on the routine that you're doing, but you should probably do those movements or version of them. Yeah. These are all like hitting your foundational base of strength. And that's why I think it's good to have it all bilateral. And like everything is about like that, that gross motor movement and just building, you know, overall muscular development. And then we can get into the nuanced stuff and, and, you know, in access to that, where we're talking about like split positions, we're talking about, you know, lateral type exercises, like all that can kind of work around that. Well, the thing that's great too, about like the big three or the big four is that it's for most people, it's, it's going to be challenging to perform it perfect. And so the, the value isn't just in the doing the three movements. It's actually all the things that you should do probably to get better at those movements, if that makes sense. Absolutely. So that's part of the great value of just sticking to those three or four movements as staples. Yeah. As staples, isn't just that, oh, you just only do those. It's that, oh, wow, I, when I squat, I can't, you know, I can't break 90 degrees and I, I noticed that my knees cave in and it's like looking at it and saying, wow, it's far from perfect. Now, what are all the things I should be adding to my routine to complement this or to improve this movement? And you could spend years and years on just those, those movements and all the things that you should do to improve those movements. And that's what makes them, I think, in my opinion, so superior. And then when you get to a point, when you have a beautiful overhead press, you have a beautiful bench press, you have a beautiful squat, you have a beautiful deadlift, holy shit, now that the carryover that that has to all the rest of your body, I mean, that's why it's called the big three and it's the the irony, although it's more, it's better communicated today than ever. It's still not communicated well enough, because the irony is if you go to the average gym, those four or five exercises, if we throw in the barbell row, are the ones you see people do the least, except for maybe the bench press, bench press, you tend to see, you know, people get on the bench, probably because it turned into a way of guys that brag or whatever. But it's funny, like you go to the gym and just an average gym, I'm not talking about like a hardcore gym, and how many people do you see barbell squatting, barbell deadlifting, you know, overhead pressing, standing, you know, doing a proper barbell row or whatever. You don't see that much. No, no, and I feel like it needs to be communicated better to the average person, because the average person, not only don't they know that the benefits of resistance training, but the ones that finally go to the gym and say, okay, I'm going to do some resistance training, the exercises they pick are like, boy, you're you could be spending that time doing something that's far more effective than the exercises that you tend to do. Right. I mean, this is things I used to do with clients. And to get this point across is I would actually take those three or four movements and, you know, split it up over three or four days and like, you know, just two movements, right? We're just going to squat and overhead press today. And the whole routine would be around improving the squat and improving the overhead press. And you could go down the rabbit hole of, you know, and that's we live in a incredible time to get information like you could go on YouTube and, you know, improve my overhead press and put, throw that in there. You can go through it for art for sure. Ours we have a ton of tutorials and videos to help you get a better overhead press, to help you get a better squat, to help you get a better deadlift and all the exercises, movements, mobility drills that we provide in there. I mean, that you should be doing that to compliment and just trying to improve the squat, like just making that a goal. Like, Hey, I want to get better at my squat. Hey, I want to get better at my overhead press and all the movements and exercises that you do besides those movements are all ones that are designed to compliment or improve those movements. There's so much value in just focusing on that alone.
