The Whole9 “Five Best Exercises” Series

Thanks to Meredith @HIITMama for bringing this project from Whole9 to my attention:

We brought together 12 fitness experts from a broad range of backgrounds–with bodies of experience ranging from weightlifting to track and field to mixed martial arts, and over two centuries of collective coaching experience–to ask them all the same question:

If you could only perform five exercise movements for the rest of your life, which five would you do? (Assuming your goals are general health, fitness and longevity, and not a specialized sport)*.

The answers may surprise you.

If you want an effective and time-efficient fitness program, I’d review this series carefully.  You may have to research some terms like Turkish get-ups, farmer carries, and dips.  Find examples at YouTube.
