what muscles are left out if i only squat, bench, and deadlift?
What muscles are left out if i only squat, bench, and deadlift?
add pullups and your simplicity routine is complete.
rear delts +biceps
Do pull ups, dips and any core workout to get most of what’s missing.
Oh and something for shoulders m8, might as well throw OHP in there.
the unimportant ones
no not really, I just wanted to use this edgy response but my opinion is actually opposite
your shoulders, lats, biceps and perhaps triceps and traps would be lagging behind
at least add OHP and pull ups to it
Biceps, rear delts, lats, calves
Triceps and medial delts will probably be pretty small too
>Shoulders
>Triceps
>When benching
Lmao show me someone benching 300 with small triceps/shoulders
Shoulders, back, biceps
Those are the basics/ essentials. But like other anons said, add pull-ups/chin-ups for a well rounded and simple routine. Everything else is icing on the cake.
Tons of guys like that, see Frog
Face pulls
Only do heavy glute bridges and bloatmaxx and you'll be a braphog slampig in no time

I stopped doing cardio on off days a month ago and I think I made more gains.
Intake is aprox 3k calories a day.
Is this a clear sign of cardio as a gains killer
NOT NEGOTIABLE
ive had the opposite experience, but my cardio consists of HIIT sprints and rowing intervals.
Add pull-ups/chins for lats and biceps/brachialis
Add rows for posterior delts, rhomboid and middle/lower traps
Add ab work and leg raises
Add OHP for anterior delts, upper traps, more pec and triceps.
Add calf raises
Rate my routine, supersets in brackets. Max pull-up is 8
Monday and Thursday
5x(Pull-ups xF + bench x12)
5x (Inverted rows x10 + OHP x12
3x (Leg raise x15 + knee-to-elbow x15 + crunches x20)
Tuesday and friday
3x (DL x12 + Pull-ups x5)
3x (Leg raise x15 + knee-to-elbow x15 + crunches x20)
3x (squat x12 + calf raise x15)
Monday, wednesday
interval training15-20 mins
Saturday
8-12km running
i am essentially doing same routine with pullups.. but i feel bad about leaving OHP out, because then shoulders get nothing
>gains more weight after stopping cardio and eating the same amount
congratulations, you just discovered thermodynamics

could have some possible results depending on your goals, pretty much worthless for most people on Jow Forums

You should only be doing accessory exercises, if you don't look like an upside down triangle you will never make it.
Behold, the power of starting strength
>pretty much worthless for most people on Jow Forums
Why?
>your goals
I want to retain muscle mass, remain strong and healthy and get more pull-up reps, lower resting heart rate to increase breath holding time
If you add overhead press and either rows or (weighted) pullups, you're pretty much solid. That's basically what I do. I guess technically I could do more to specifically target traps, lateral delts, biceps, and calves, but I really don't care.
depends on your bench style. But anterior delts really aren't used much in bench at all.
because progression in terms of volume is going to be slow as fuck, resulting in minimal gains
your intensity is way too low
try doing some novice program or read actual literature on how to program strength training if you want to do it yourself
everything except your hamstrings, glute, spinal erectors, quads, chest and front delts.
you need sex for your genital muscles
>not like we need it anyways
Your calves might feel a bit neglected.
What do you mean?
>progression in terms of volume is going to be slow as fuck
Too low volume?
>intensity is way too low
Too many reps per exercise?
I mean I bench 280 and I don't look like I lift
i mean that you dont know anything and should read up
try the sticky
Imagine not isolating your facepullers in 2018
that's a big bulge
ur probably missing rear and medial delts
no such thing as medial delts though so that's fine
need some insight here senpai
proficient levels of strength according to symmetricstrength
For you
Neck, Rear and posterior delts, traps, rhomboids, lats, biceps, forearms, waist muscles, calves. Triceps, chest, erectors, glutes, hamstrings probably wouldn't get enough stimulus to get stronger/bigger on a optimal pace.
bbr is what?
barbell rows?
still doesnt hit your external rotators at all, injury waiting to happen
needs OHP, Chinups and Rows
