Jason "Autismo" Blahino says the top 5 exercises for general strength/fitness are these:
>conventional deadlift
>push press
>front squat
>weighted Chinup
>weighted Dip
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKEr8yxbiHg
Why should I, as a non-competitive lifter, not concentrate on these 5 instead of the "big three" or the "big three + OHP + Row" ?
I actually agree, minus the deadlifts.
Squat
Press
Front Squat
Weighted Chinup
Weighted Dip
>>36880296
would do you good. do what you want. results probably wouldn't be that different.
also pls go, jason
>>36880296
Idk why but the guy in the image seems like a fugly alien for some reason.
For general fitness/strength you should have atleast one exercise, which developes power. If you want looks more, then you can switch it something else.
Front squat
Snatch / clean
Weighted chin up
Weighted Dip
Deadlift
>>36880318
perhaps because it's in human nature to convince yourself that someone else is worse than in reality to make yourself feel better
>>36880318
kek, he looks hot af.
Deadlift
Benchpress
Squat
Ohp
Doesnt really matter which variation of those you do. All of them work (some better then others, but theyll still work).
>>36880333
push press does develop power you fucking imbecile
>>36880385
I never said I was better desu faggot.
>>36880391
Maybe to the uggo's you live with. I see hotter people in a day to day basis.
>>36880296
hes right you know

He basically cribbed from Dan John and there's no reason not to. Read up on Dan John minimalist workouts.

>>36880296
I actually agree completely with his list, although I'd include the Power snatch.
>the "big three"
These are mainly a thing due to the sport of powerlifting. Although still good exercises of course.
Eh. For autistic moron I kinda agree with him on this.
>>36880296
He's a fucking eejit.
First 3 are fine, but the last two are total shit.
>>36880503
Or maybe it's someone who has a differing opinion to you?
> t. faggoty cuck
>>36880616
You just implied that you're a faggoty cuck.
Fuck off newfag.
>>36880447
I guarantee you're fat and ugly cunty
>>36880429
Wew lad
>>36880578
You only say that because you can't do them, lardass.
>>36880296
He stole this from Jim Wendler.
Plagerized several T Nation & 5/3/1 articles.
>>36880707
Lifting heavy weights is better than flailing around like a cross fit faggot with a bunch of weight hanging from your ballsack.
>>36880728
i believe you but sauce?
>>36880801
bro: the post
>>36880296
Because Jason Blaha looks like shit and has shit lifts for a fat guy who's been lifting forever.
He's also probably got actual mental illness, because he's living in a fantasy world.
>weighted Chinup
>weighted Dip
>weighted
holy shit are things better if you add weight. I felt like that was really relevant to add. Can't become a Blaha-tier bodybuilder if I keep doing regular chinups and dips after all!
>>36880931
There are a lot of people who do pull-ups to failure instead of adding weight. Since so many people have issues with dips, a lot of them do them without weight because of fear, "it's just assistance anyway". I had discussions about squatting technique with people who turned out to be doing fucking body weight squats in the gym. People are dumb, you have to specify fucking everything.
>>36880625
Lmao I never did that.
Did you practise to become this retarded or does it just come to you naturally? Your mother shouldn;t have bothered to stop drinking. Not like it was going to make a difference lol.
>>36880318
Ohhhh brown people. I have blond hair, super light blue eyes, and am 6'1 and have noticed some brown people definitely have some hostility towards me.
Usually they stare / give me eye daggers. It could also be a cultural thing, but i've noticed the two indians that work in my subdivision have a bitchy attitude towards me. I don't have that issue with anyone else, haha.
>>36881212
Brown scum need to stick to their own fucking countries
>>36881212
Maybe you're over thinking it senpai? I used to think like that.
>>36881219
Lel.
>>36880801
So you have to flail around to do a pull up or dip?
fat fuck confirmed
>>36880296
Why chin up and not pull up?
>>36881212
Its pure envy.
>>36881317
>over thinking
I had that problem years ago, but i'm 30 now and have had enough psilocybin to temper my ego or paranoia.
>>36880296
He's absolutely correct.
>>36880296
I actually agree with this.
That's my routine, except I do one arm chins instead of weighted pull ups.
>>36880728
This makes sense.
>>36881212
>I don't have that issue with anyone else, haha.
The people who say this are usually never like this. Don't listen to these tards >>36881219
>>36881317 >>36881367 and examine yourself for who you are thoroughly.
>>36881338
he explains why in the video.
something about greater ROM and more bicep
>>36881405
Knock, knock.
>>36880310
>Squat and Front Squat
what is this meme with squatting 2-3x as much as other lifts?
>>36880318
Oy vey. The white Aryan male is a plague on humanity!!!
>>36881997
Who's there!?
>>36880407
Your biceps and lats will lack
if you think about it, a front squat provides more functional strength than a back squat...
Zercher squat is best squat.
>>36880318
>Idk why
probably you are some variety of nigger and you are jelly
source: i am a variety of nigger and I am jelly
anyone have tips on performing the push press without hurting your back? i generally do OHP and will notice unpleasant mid back soreness sometimes
Holy shit that fucker looks identical to my great grandfather
>>36880578
it's scary that people new to fitness come to this board and read posts like these and actually believe them.
>>36882745
You're doing too much weight if your OHP is hurting your back because it sounds like you're leaning back to push it up instead of tightening up and staying straight. Try dumbell OHP
>>36880407
I'd throw in some chins and pullups and you're golden.
>>36880296
>conventional deadlift instead of snatch grip
Snatch grip dl could provide extra volume for hamstring and upper back that the rest of his exercise selection misses
>>36880407
but who was lats
>>36882020
I bet you never tried front squat.
never was that high on deadlifts or bench
> squat
> weighted chins
> weighted dips
> push press
+ either:
> face pulls / hamstring curls / leg raises
since those are hard to hit but not exactly necessary
>>36881212
>indians
They definitely have issues, they're a prideful people and that pride is injured when they see someone they instinctively know is superior.
>>36880318
What? He's literally perfect.
brown people are the absolute worst
>>36881212
I look Aryan and injun women mire me hard. Didn't notice any hostility from injun men or negroes though
>>36880318
>>36880853
Just finished reading "Beyond 5/3/1 & -5/3/1 for powerlifting" these 5 lifts/exercises are the goto ones in the book. Sum up these 2 books:
1) chin ups/pull ups between every set
2) press should be #1 lift
3) conventional deadlift (because I don't know sumo)
4) dips between sets when your not doing chins
5) front squat because it has great carry over like cleans
>>36881026
What's wrong with going to failure and/or going to say 3x10 and moving to a harder variation? Is it not optimal for strength development? Are weighted variations necessary?
>>36881948
Shouldn't you do both? Pull ups work the lats and forearms better than chins
>>36887272
>pullups work the lats better
nope
it's good to do both though
>>36880296
that's exactly what I would have chosen
>Why should I, as a non-competitive lifter, not concentrate on these 5 instead of the "big three" or the "big three + OHP + Row" ?
you can do more than 5 exercises you know
My last name is Blaha.

A surprisingly large amount of people are subtly upset that i'm blonde hair blue eyes as well. i can tell because my eyes aren't actually blue, but swap between green and blue depending on lighting/whether i'm wearing contacts or not. some people eyefuck me when I wear contacts because my eyes go piercing blue like shiny as fuck, and it seems to weird people out and make them treat me differently. really strange desu and more than slightly arousing
>>36887310
You can't really "focus" on more than 3-6 exercises. Everything beyond that is "assistance" or "accessory"
The point is that treating those 5 as my "main lifts" instead of "binch/dead/skwaat" would maybe benefitial to someone who's not a competitive powerlifter.
Why no rows?
