compound lifts
 

Who still does all the basic compound lifts, squat, flat bench and deadlift, or do you feel as you get more advanced, these exercises can be dropped?

Wow, scary! I was literally just going through and writing down a list of compound exercises to make sure I'm still doing them all. Not at the same time, obviously.

So, to answer the question . . . I still do mainly compound exercises, squats, deadlifts, barbell rows, dumbbell rows, bench pressand military press mainly, even after all these years.

Compound movements always have a place in my bulking routines.

i totally agree in back to the basics training.. however i do not do flat bench (bar) i believe tht its highly overrated and u can build the whole pec with incline presses (bar) if u know how to use this technique correctly. :)
