    Deads, push press, farmer carries. I actually rarely do the latter two, but these seem like they would have the most relation to real world applications. We have zombies to think about here.

    ^this is because they are not in the same family.

    I see your thinking - but it works totally different muscle groups.


    um. lol

    Isn't that what I said the first time around?

    although- you're leg lift option is a great variation- I use it to target low back- also amusingly enough- I do single leg lifted push ups as well speaking of variety.

    I'd always thought of push-ups as a "chest" exercise. So, when I started seeing a huge difference in my core muscles I kind of mentally re-classified them as a core exercise that also works your chest and arms. No biggie.

    Are squats better for the butt than lunges?

    why only do one?

    Depends on a lot of things. Mainly hip flexion angle during both of these exercises. Add sumo deadlifts and hip thrusts and you will build a massive booty (with appropriate macros).
