Depending on the variation you choose to perform — a barbell, dumbbells, or kettlebells — you can target different parts of the body. can be done with a barbell, dumbbells, or kettlebells. Here's how you can do a barbell back squat for strength and growth: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart holding onto a loaded barbell across the back of your shoulders (or holding dumbells) with hands shoulder-width apart. Bend knees while pushing hips back till the thighs are parallel to the floor, and return to the starting position.#2 Bench Press
The is one of the best exercises for building upper body strength. You can do it at home or in a gym, with dumbbells or a barbell, Your feet can be on the ground or on a bench. For this exercise, start by lying on a flat bench. Proceed as follows: Using an underhand grip, place your palms under the barbell, and wrap around it.Lift the weight off the rack, and slowly bring it down till it's about to touch your chest.Press it back up till your arms are fully extended.Repeat the move for 10-12 reps.#3 Deadlift
Deadlifts are a great way to build strength in the lower back, quads, hamstrings, and glutes. To do them: Stand with feet hip-width apart with a barbell on the floor in front of you. Bend down, and grab the bar with an overhand grip (palms facing towards you). Your arms should be straight and perpendicular to the floor. Make sure you're not leaning forward or backward to balance yourself.Lift your chest up as high as possible while keeping your back straight — don't round over. Slowly bend at the knees while keeping them behind the toes till they're slightly below parallel to the ground. Keep your shins vertical throughout the exercise (i.e., don't let knees come past toes). Hold that position for one second before returning upright by extending your knees first then hips till you're standing tall again with weight being supported by your heels rather than toes (which should remain flat on the floor). Perform a few reps till the set is complete.#4 Pull-Up
Pull-ups are a great exercise to start with, as they don't require any equipment and can be done in a variety of ways. You can do pull-ups on a bar, a tree branch, or even rafters in your house if you're really dedicated to getting jacked. To do a pull-up: Take an overhand grip on the bar, with your hands wider than shoulder-width apart. Your palms should be facing away from you.Pull yourself up till your chin is above the bar, and lower yourself back down slowly for one repNote: If that seems difficult at first, try some negative reps where you use assistance from someone else or by using bands/resistance cords.#5 Overhead Press
The overhead press is a great full body exercise that works the shoulders, back, and arms. It can be done with dumbbells or a barbell and can be performed standing or seated. This exercise is ideal for anyone looking to build muscle mass in their upper body while also improving shoulder mobility. The key to getting proper form when performing the overhead press is to keep your elbows tucked at the sides of your body as you lower the weight down till they're parallel with your torso before pressing back up again. When doing this exercise with dumbbells, you should raise each arm independently. Don't use momentum by swinging both arms simultaneously like you would when using a barbell. Some people say the seated overhead press is a shoddy and even dangerous alternative to a standing overhead press, but I disagree.In fact, I think it's one of the best shoulder exercises you can do.
