There are three major exercises in fitness training: the bench press, the deadlift, and the squat. To put it bluntly, the saying goes that if you master just these three, you've already moved beyond the basics. Of course, experts say that isn't enough. Since the bench press alone isn't sufficient, do cable flyes or upper chest exercises with dumbbells. Because the deadlift doesn't develop small muscles, do lat pulldowns, cable rows, kettlebell swings, and T-bar rows. Since squats only allow you to lift heavy weights, vary your routine.
