Some people like to focus more on one aspect of their physique or fitness more than others (e.g., chest, glutes, back, etc.) Other than possibly putting a bit more focus on one area or another, any good program will have you doing variations on a few common movements (push, pull, squat, hip hinge, etc.)0 -
^^All of these sound great!0
