If you want to get really strong, one of the most important exercises to include in your training routine each week is the deadlift.

If you want a strong upper body, bench press is one of the best exercises to train. This compound exercise targets multiple muscle groups, including the pecs, delts, and triceps as well as stabilizing muscles throughout your core and legs. 

Developing a strong squat can improve your balance & coordination and reduce your risk of falling and getting injured. You’ll also be more likely to be able to get off the toilet by yourself when you’re 80.
