You wake up early in anticipation for the workout ahead. Stumble into the kitchen and make your favorite breakfast to prepare for the torture you are going to put yourself through in precisely 68 minutes. Down the pre and off to church you go. When you walk through the doors of that hallowed ground you find your place of peace and war empty and calling your name. Plates loaded, the bar is firmly set on your squat pads(traps). Rep after rep, set after set you battle. Sweat pouring off your nose, legs shaking, stomach churning you now may start thinking about what accessory lifts you can do.
Unfortunately many people go into a weightlifting regimen under the impression leg press, calf raises, cable flies, lat pull down, curl for hell's sake and even crunches are the way to get RIPPED! My dear members, let us put down our dumbbells. Let us walk away from the cable machine and find our selves on a platform or in the rack. Get functional with the big three. Squat, Dead Lift and Cleans&Jerks. There are great applications for the other exercises, but only when paired with the serious ones.
