    May I ask why so many would do both squats and deadlifts?

    Honestly I didn't give it that much thought, those are just the lifts I most enjoy. I do see your point about balance though.

    While mine were chosen with great care and scrutiny

    OP, are you wearing a diaper? Or is that supposed to be your Mt Olympus costume?

    No it's a diaper.

    Well it looks smashing, if I do say so.

    hehe I love gifs.

    and thanks, if you're into diapers - I'm sure the internet has something to fulfill that.

    Along with dinosaurs, cartoons and all kinds of other fun things.

    Don't forget the kittehs!

    Overemphasizing a point?

    Squat
    Flat Bench Press
    Deadlift

    (But, if the Gods said that I could include a few more -hey, they have that power, right? :bigsmile: ), then I'd add:

    Pull-up / Chin-ups (pull-up grip is underhand, chin-up, overhand)
    Standing (Military) Press
    The Olympic lifts: Snatch & Clean-&-Jerk
    Sprints (not technically a 'lift,' unless you count 'lifting' your body down the road, but excellent for both strength and endurance)

    The big three officially are:
    Squat
    Bench Press
    Deadlift


    I think there really is no question.

    The fourth is Wide grip Pull Up.
