Barbell basics: Pulldown, OHP, Deadlift

Duration: 23 minutes

For beginners building a base with three fundamental lifts.

The lat pulldown, overhead press and deadlift together train a vertical pull, a vertical push and a full hip hinge, for a simple, balanced whole-body session.

Progress: keep a neutral spine on deadlifts, brace hard on presses, and add a little weight each session while your form holds.

Workout B of the Full Body Barbell beginner plan; alternate with Row/Press/Squat.
