    love this. i feel like everyone is always saying you have to squat bench and deadlift. for me, squats kind of hurt my knees. so glad to know. i can leg press instead.

    As a physical therapist, everything that I have heard on this channel has been fantastic advice.

    Awesome info I really wanted to bench and squat but my shoulder and back just never heal so I deleted them &nbsp;just before seeing this… thanks for your work there’s so much ego lifting and bad advice…. 💪✌️✌️

    Been working out consistently for nearly 20 years now and never did a single bench press. I only do push ups and dips with weights added and have a decent aesthetic and strong chest.

    great video coach Wisdom. i&apos;m really glad you mentioned deadlifts, i&apos;m not really good at them. so i&apos;m really glad to hear i don&apos;t really have to do them!

    Agreed! For myself, I&apos;ve been doing martial arts and weight training for almost 20 years, but when I done more of the big 3 even for twice a week I wrecked my body and even my CNS. Training for longevity that&apos;s most important.

    Just what I&apos;ve been thinking. After years of lifting, my goto big lifts have been replace with incline dumbbell press, RDL and quad focused single leg leg press.👍👍

    I agree.. the stronger I got I just kept thinking I had to do more weight on the big three. And that’s when the injuries came.. shoulders especially.. I still do all three on occasion, but not every week and there are so many variations to these lifts and I’m making gains doing these alternate lifts

  • @William.T-w9v · 5 months ago

    I really enjoy doing Ring dips and Ring push ups over bench pressing, I feel like I can push harder to failure without worrying about injuring my shoulders.
