Reply to comment by GuardianMike in LPT: To get the most muscle/sculpting for your buck at the gym, focus on compound lifts—the exercises that recruit multiple muscle groups. You only really need overhead press, bench press, squat, deadlift, rows, dips, and maybe pull-ups. These will give you most workout for the energy you put forth. by [deleted]

Bench press strength and pec size are very strongly correlated. ROM isn't everything. And if you worry about that, do CG. Also deadlifts are only dangerous for stupid people.

Deadlifts are the most fear mongered movement. For no reason.

Yep. You're more likely to injure yourself playing tennis.
