being shredded and being strong are not necessarily one in the same
Hence weightlifters v bodybuilders
So it depends what you're going for
I definitely want to be actually strong, not just have the look
I lean more towards the former, so if you want to focus more on the latter then you'll have to do more research into it; suffice to say from what I've seen it involves more cutting and focusing on isolated muscle exercises
rather than compound exercises
can't really go wrong with the holy trinity though
do you mean power clean, squat press, and bench press?
I keep it super simple
always squats
then I'll mix in two others, choosing from
OHP
Deadlifts
Bench
Power clean
You can build off of that
whats OHP
Overhead Press
like a military press?
```[On not calling "The Press", "The Shoulder Press]
We just call it the press, because how could you press without the shoulders? You can leg press... but that's gay. "```
`r i p p e t o e`
is it the same as a military press?
Mil press is a variation of regular press
lemmesee if I can dig something up
regular press?
regular press.
call it a standing press if you want
whatever works
i dont know these, I do bench press, chest press, shoulder press, standing military press
`chest press`
buh
like a weight machine?
or are you using dumbells
I try to avoid machines
When I was younger I thought you were supposed to start with machines and then move on to big scary freeweights
Except they tend to constrict your natural range of motion and by extension wind up teaching bad habits
Then you see people using freeweights awkwardly because they're used to the machine guiding them
i use both, the chest press and shoulder press are machines and then the standing military press and bench press with barbells
wait
you use a smith machine?
