If you only had time for a handful of exercises, compound lifts would be the ones to keep.

Why compounds

They work several muscle groups together, building functional strength and saving time.

Squats, deadlifts, presses, rows, and lunges cover the whole body between them.

Master the movement with lighter loads before adding weight. Good technique prevents injury and builds a stronger foundation.
