The Best Workouts Are Boring

The Best Workouts Are Boring

Modern day fitness has turned into a competition who can invent the fanciest looking exercise in the gym or get the most attention online 

 

Whether it's finding different ways to use machines or coming up with ridiculous looking movements that nobody has ever seen before and they think it's special or a secret exercise nobody knows about 

 

The truth is the best and most effective workouts are basic and boring

 

You don't need to be in the gym for hours every single day and you don't have to run miles on the treadmill  

 

Keep it stupid simple. Stick to the basics. Do the stuff that has been proven to work over and over for so many people

 

 

Legs:

Squats, deadlifts, lunges, split squats, calf raises 

 

 

Back:

Pull ups, lat pull downs, rows, reverse flys 

 

 

Shoulders:

Military press, lateral raises, front raises, face pulls 

 

 

Chest: 

Bench press, incline press, push ups, flys

 

 

Arms: 

Chin ups, dips, bicep curls, hammer curls 

 

 

Core: 

Dead bugs, bird dogs, pallof press, planks, side planks, farmer carry, leg raises 

 

 

Nothing fancy. Nothing crazy. Simple and effective exercises that have been around for decades. Don't reinvent the wheel when it works. 

 

The reality is many people avoid every exercise on this list because they are hard. The harder a movement is the more you should be doing it. 

 

Despite what you see on social media, there is no secret exercise that will help you lose weight faster.

 

There are no special exercises you can do to target specific areas of body fat.

 

There are no shortcuts.

 

Day in day out you need to work your ass off and give the process time. 

 

A basic strength and conditioning program paired with a quality diet will always be your best bet to reach your fitness goals no matter what they are.
