Squats and Deadlifts are probably the least popular exercises ever – in that nobody likes doing them because they’re a huge pain. But at the same time, these two exercises are easily the ultimate muscle-builders. Not only because they target many different muscle groups (between the two, it’s almost a full-body workout), but also because they boost your natural testosterone like nothing else. Why? Exactly because they stress many, large muscle groups very intensely. This has been shown to produce a testosterone response in the body.
Here are two videos detailing how to properly execute Deadlifts and Squats.
Video 1: The Deadlift
Note how he keeps a very straight back throughout the upward and downward motion. This is extremely important. As soon as you no longer have the strength in your lower back to keep your spine straight, stop the exercise and take a break.
Video 2: The Squat
In this video, you see a demonstration of both the bodyweight-Squat (no additional weights) and the barbell Squat.
Even though you probably hate them, make sure to add these to invaluable exercises to your routine!
