Not really, my programs are almost always adjusted to what I feel needs work the most.
If you could only pick 3 weight lifting exercises what would they be and why?
Bench Press – power for my upper torso
Squat – targets core, glutes, and thighs. Great for overall leg development
Hip thrust with weight – targets my hip flexors and glutes, improves and maintain my speed.
