Standing OHP or barbell row

Pussies can have high deadlifts and squats but you only see real niccas mog on barbell row and OHP

How often do you see a 4 plate row? Or 3 plate OHP?

carrying a figgan couch up a flight of stairs.

i know plenty of other people who lift but somehow can't seem to move furniture without their grip giving out and needing to stop and switch hands or something.

probably use straps to dead lift.

The best is whichever exercise has least limiting factor.

For example deadlift is kind of stupid because ultimately you're depending on grip strength to determine if you can move heavy weight or not.

Squat, even leg press, make more sense in that regard.

[sweetmiscer]

None of you squats huh

But who was straps, chalk, hook grip, mixed grip?

If you want to be humbled really quickly in the gym.

Grab a barbell and overhead squat with it. It really is a full body thing. Not easy at all.

I am willing to wager that most gym goes will have difficulty with just the bar.

Normies will say the bench press, but realistically its the OHP.

[ogrelook0ultra]

In all seriousness, the OHP thing is more about mass and center of gravity than it is about strength.

The higher above your center of gravity the barbell is, the more stability is needed and the more you benefit from being a bloatlord since your bodyweight stabilizes.

The OHP is as the name states is overhead and requires the most stability. Next would be the squat on the shoulders. The deadlift is below your center of gravity and hangs and stabilizes itself. Even lower is bench or anything seated because the bench or seat is doing all the stabilization work.

thats just more mobility than raw strength

[BerserkGrom]

1. Deadlift (conventional)
2. in close tie: clean & jerk (any form, power clean, push jerk, strict press... just getting the barbell from ground to overhead)
