    What is a squat deadlift incline? I do squats and deadlifts but I've never heard of this.

    Squat, deadlift, and bb rows. Any big compound movement really.. Standing shoulder press, rows, dips, bench press, a db press, etc.

    I'm sorry my response did not quote the above person properly:



    Squats

    Deadlifts

    Overhead press

    I have lost a lot of weight and INCHES as well as gained nice muscle definition due to these exercises and variations of them.

    Huggies or pampers? Sorry my son is pottytraining and of course that's what I thought of when you mentioned pull ups!:laugh:

    Why 3? There are 4 basic compound lifts, you'd be losing out on one of the big ones right away. Most basic strength programs include 5-6 movements (Check out Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe or Stronglifts 5x5)

    Power Cleans
    Squats
    Deadlifts
    Bench Press
    Overhead Press
    Pull-ups
