If you had to choose only ONE...

[MikeMartial]

If you had to choose one, and only ONE resistance-training exercise, which would it be:

1) The Squat

2) The Deadlift

And how many reps/sets/times-per-week?

The question is just one of pure curiousity---I have no idea why, but it came to me as I was hauling 120lb sidewalk blocks into my backyard

 

[DaPit26]

definately squat. i like the 5X5

 

[~Lexy~]

The Squat

 

[KillahBee]

For muscular development? strength? pure fun?

Deadlift

 

[Illuminati]

max attempt on deadlift

 

[tzan]

Deads.....

 

[Sub-Zero]

id chose deads cause it works more

 

[tsolis]

squat 5x6 once a week

 

[dutchman063]

squat.... nothing quite like it!.. well other than bench....

 

[musketeer]

It depends on whether or not I would be allowed to do other exercises.

If I could do cleans and shrugs then I'd rather do squats.

 

[AEKDB]

Clean and press singles for 100reps.

Between Deadlift and Squat? Deadlift singles for 50-100reps.

 

[BOOEY]

Between just those two ..... prolly deadlift b/c it taxes your entire body.

 

[tgriff]

definantly deads

 

[Devastation]

squats

Deadlift

lol, deads=fun? yeah right, i fucking hate them. Needless to say it is a chore when i have to do the damn things, which will be in about a half hour away...gonna be a shitty afternoon.

 

[DieselGunz]

Deadlift, it is a total body workout.

have ue ver been in a fight? and if so have u ever lost a fight?

if u answered yes to both questions, then u know what it feels like when ur about to get finished off and either u stay down or u get that sort of freaky surge of energy and it make su wanan scream and cry at the same time ( i call it super sayin- from dbz haha)

if u can mimic that feeling during a heavy set of deads and u feel like either u go crazy or u will get beaten senseless it makes it alot funner. you get that surge of energy through your body and battle the weight up and ENJOY moving it, sort of like you enjoy beating the shit out of someone who is trying to hurt you

 

[caseygabriel]

Squats!

Dont get me wrong they work well, but I STILL FUCKING HATE THEM.
