The 5 Movements You Need To Get Strong

There are 3 months left in 2025. That is plenty of time to set new goals, crush them, or continue to work on current ones. Time is going to pass for all of us and the only thing that matters is what you do with it. In 10 years (2034), you will look back, and either thank yourself for the habits you put in place or you'll look back and regret the ones you didn’t.

 Strength Training >

Strength never goes out of style and I promise, it's never a bad time to start. However, it's always a bad time NOT to start.

No matter your background, no matter your experience level, you can get stronger. 

"How?"

By making sure you are training effectively and using the right movements to help you build a strong, muscular, and healthy physique.

The 5 Movement Patterns To Get Seriously Strong

  • Squat - Back Squats, Front Squats, Hack Squats, Leg Press, Goblet Squats, Split Squats, Lunges

  • Hinge - Deadlifts, Trap Bar Deadlifts, Romanian Deadlifts, Hip Thrusts, Glute Bridges, Back Extensions, Good Mornings

  • Push/Press - Bench Press, Overhead Press, DB Bench Press, Push Press, Dips, Push-Ups

  • Pull - Rows, Pull-Ups, Chin Ups, DB Single Arm Rows, Lat Pulldowns, Inverted Rows, Cable Rows

  • Carry - Loaded Trap Bar Carry, Farmer's Walk, Zercher Carry, Front Rack Carry, Sandbag Carries, Sled Drags

These 5 movement patterns aren't limited to the variations followed but I wanted to list a few that work well for different people.

Your strength is something you need for life and it is a status symbol. No money can buy it, you cannot borrow it, you cannot inherit it, you cannot steal it. You cannot hold onto it without constant work. It shows discipline, it shows self-respect, it shows patience, work ethic, and passion.
