Complex Movements In Strength Training (edited)

Hi ALL
I would like to discuss the advantages of Complex Movements aka Multi-Joint Exercises;
aka Compound Exercises in Strength Training.
As a Personal Trainer I see a lot of people doing Isolated Movements in the gym,
these are Single-Joint Exercises. The most common Isolated Exercise I see being
performed a lot is the Bicep Curl - this is not the only one, however it is
very common to see guys doing Bicep Curls to try and grow larger arms.
It is far more effective to perform a Multi-Joint Exercise because the body does not
work well in muscle isolation, rather it works better in movements along a
kinetic chain; that is, large portions of the body assist other portions of the
body in completing a Complex Movement. So instead of a Bicep Curl try doing
something like a Pull-Up which works your Biceps as well as the Latissimus Dorsi, Trapezius,
Teres Major and Rhomboids, making for a far more rewarding workout. There are
many effective Multi-Joint / Complex Movements / Compound Exercises that work
lots of muscles in the body. They create more stable and stronger joints in the
long run (when done properly), and also burn massive quantities of calories
compared to the single-joint exercises.

this site to see some awesome Compound Exercises for your training.
Note: these exercises involve the large muscle groups when you exercise. The benefit of
Multi-Joint exercises is they help to create a body that is functional and will
be less prone to injury and tendonitis. When you perform these exercises you
are creating a body that is a powerful, functional unit that works together.
Best Results!

In all my years as a competitor and enthusiastI have never seen anyone re-rack the weight backward in the Squat.
Too many issues, and why not just do this in competition?
