Actually, deadlifts are probably the most compound lift bodybuilders do.Originally posted by REN

08-31-2002, 06:07 AM #7actually, can't you do them so they're not compound, ya know....when you don't bend your knees and just lower the weight with a bend at your waist? at least that's how i do em so as to not involve the leg muscles too much on back day.Originally posted by Big Daddy Shane

Compound exercises are multijoint. With stiff leg deadlifts, you use two different joints; the hip joint and the shoulder girdle. Therefore SLDL are compound.

08-31-2002, 06:36 AM #9hmmmm, point taken. i figured since the shoulder girdle mainly acted as a means of holding the wieght, it would not be considered as being "involved" in the actual exercise. but i guess techinically it is a compound lift.Originally posted by Big Daddy Shane

I'm only posting what I consider to be THE ultimate exercise for the Triceps, no other than the awesome SKULLCRUSHERS! god I love them and they give great results.

NP. SLDL also target the whole back as well as the shoulders, arms, hammys and glutes. One of the best exercises.Originally posted by REN

I've only been lifting for 6 months, so I prefer the basics:
Chest: DB press (flat, incline & decline)
Shoulders: military press
Biceps: DB curls
Legs: Squats
Upper Back: pull-ups
Lower back: DL
Abs: Crunches
I know, not too original, but they seem to do the trick
