To build a balanced, strong, injury-proof physique you need to do some unilateral training.

The exercise is deceptively simple, but there are a series of brilliant elements that come together to make it so effective.

By using double barrel rolls, you can stimulate a muscle across every inch of every rep.

Train your quads, hamstrings, glutes, abs, lower back, forearms, and traps with the trap bar deadlift.

Protect your lower back and maintain balanced form with front squats.

I mean who would have a leg day and not squat, right?

We use our shoulders almost non-stop, so is it any wonder they often get hurt?

By varying your exercises strategically not only will you gain strength and muscle faster, but you lay the platform for continued long-term progress over successive phases.

It's a scientific fact, it's never too late to commit to movement, and strength, and flexibility, and mobility, and fitness. Your attitude is all that counts.

These movements are the basics before you start getting fancy with anything else and they should never be forgotten.

A simple way to activate your core is to hold yourself up when you exercise—no irony intended.
