After losing nearly a hundred pounds, I trained for a solid year and never incorporated the big 3 at all. I of course didn't know what I was doing and was built like a malnourished bird. After listening to Mind Pump advice, I began incorporating those movements and within six months I could see and feel a tremendous difference in strength and body proportions. Sincerely I thank you guys.

Thats unfortunately most people's way of doing it... and for women is worse since they think they will look like the hulk in a week if they lift"heavy"... if men have a hard time building muscle with 12-20 times the testosterone women have how is the media convincing them they would blow up with muscle?? but they do believe that. Glad you change that, do those first, and add some you like later... but from ALLL you do you have to recover, so don't add too many extras.

Fullbody and consistent lifts of those big three has been the best advice I've gained in years. I've been focusing on 4 movements every day that I workout. Usually 2 big lifts and 2 minor lifts. Yesterday I did Squats, Incline Bench, RDLs, and Calve Raises. Tomorrow I will do Flat Bench, Front Squat, Z Press and Split Lunges.

When i wasn't motivated to go to the gym, i just said to myself you dont have to do a ton of weight just practice the movements. I felt amazing afterwards and moved weight. There have been many days like that in the last 12 months and everytime i just say practice the movement!

It actually takes a lot of courage to get into these big lifts by yourself with no trainer as a beginner.

My bench is stuck atm though 😢

I'd like to add to the AMP/SPEAKER analogy - there's a MISSING component!: the SOURCE! 🎶💿(ie. Your Movement Patterns) The QUALITY of the Source might be more important than your Amp🎛 or Speakers🔊. If your source (or form) is garbage then you will amplify those poor movement patterns, or poor source signal, resulting in bad sound or injury. Keep pumping! 🏋🏋♂🏋♀

I agree. However, the squat, the dead lift, and the benchpress all have different variations. It’s more common that you’ll see somebody doing a 300 pound squat then you’ll see somebody doing 100 pound pistol squat I would say pistol squats are superior just for the simple fact that they could be done anywhere with no gym equipment and it forces you to develop better ankle mobility. Also, it will just make you look like a bad ass that’s still a move that I haven’t even quite accomplished yet however, it’s definitely going to be on my agenda.

So doing a cut now which has been ACTUALLY WORKING.
