What a bummer if you discovered that you were wasting your time on the wrong weight training exercises. It happens all the time. Especially to skinny bodybuilders.
Skinny guy’s must follow a different set of rules because they face a different set of challenges. We need to choose the most effective weight training exercises for maximum muscle growth.
Here’s a list of the exercises I used to develop my skinny body into a muscular body. It’s just a list. No explanations on technique or sets or rep counts. Just the list.
Okay, I do explain the "Good Morning" exercise. I explain it and warn you about it because if you do it wrong you could screw your back up. Training with weights is inherently dangerous so…BE CAREFUL!
The main muscle groups of your body can be divided into ten parts. Here are the top one or two exercises for each muscle group I used to gain 41 pounds of muscle mass in under six months:
Chest:
- Bench Press
- Flat Dumbbell Chest Press
Back:
- Bent Over Barbell Rows
- Close Grip Chin Ups
Shoulders:
- Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press
- Standing Military Press
Triceps:
- Dips
- Tricep Pressdowns
Biceps:
- Standing Barbell Curls
- Incline Bicep Curls
Quadriceps:
- Squats
- Lunges
Hips:
- Deadlifts
- Stiff Leg Deadlifts
Lower Back:
- Good Morning
BE CAREFUL DOING THE GOOD MORNING EXERCISE!
Good-morning is a weight training exercise in which a barbell or two dumbbells are held on the shoulders, behind the head. The person bends forward, bowing at the hips while keeping the back straight, and recovers to upright…
The good-morning is a controversial exercise as some will claim that it leads to lower back injuries. Famously, Bruce Lee seriously injured himself while performing the exercise after an inadequate warm-up and over confidently selecting his working weight.
Calves:
- Standing Calve Raises
Abdominals:
- Weighted Ball Situps
- Weighted Cable Crunches
Yes, there are many more exercises I did not list but these are the basics. Don’t make the mistake many beginning bodybuilders make and get too fancy with complicated exercises. Stick to these simple, tried and true weight training exercises when you’re starting out for the best possible muscular and strength results. Before you know it you’ll have a rock-hard muscular body!
