All squats work our lower body and core (abs and back). Goblet, Zercher, or front carry squats for upper body involvement earn bonus points.
2. Deadlift
All variants. Deadlifting safely requires strong legs, core, and grip.
3. Kettlebell Swings
Deadlift's intense cousin. You're exercising the same muscles as a deadlift and receiving some high-intensity exercise.
4. Turkish Getups
Full-body workout posture children. This exercise strengthens and mobilizes all your muscles.
5. Walking Lunges
Walking, like TGUs, engages core and lower body muscles and helps your body absorb trauma, which is good for your joints.
6. Transverse Step Ups
This exercise works many muscle groups and helps tight hips and back pain.
7. Bulgarian Split Squats
This difficult workout is excellent for desk jockeys. Stretching the front of your hip and thigh improves posture and reduces sitting pain with each rep.
Bottom Line
If you're looking for the best weight loss program, eat well, rest, and include these multi-muscle group exercises.
