A compound move is any weight-bearing lift that involves movement at more than one joint. They’re often referred to as ‘more bang for your buck’ exercises because each rep hits multiple muscle groups. For example:

  • Squats
  • Deadlifts
  • Pull-ups
  • Bench Press
  • Military Press

We intend on making the above examples as separate pages and we will provide you with a detailed breakdown on how to perform them perfectly and get maximum gains.

Thanks for reading,
