Stick to what works.
1️⃣ Find exercises you enjoy 2️⃣ that don’t hurt 3️⃣ that you have access to, and 4️⃣ that you’ve been properly coached on—then stay consistent with them.
This is one of the biggest differences between beginners and experienced lifters.
Experienced lifters don’t chase variety. They know what works for them and they double down on it.
When I train quads, I stick to the leg press, hack squat, and leg extension—on repeat. When I do HIIT, I go to the SkiErg. When I need Zone 2, I put on my ruck vest and walk. Those are my go-to’s.
Over the years, I didn’t swap them out every month—I just got stronger and more efficient with them.
Beginner lifters often fall for the myth of “muscle confusion”—the idea that constantly switching exercises is necessary for results. That’s complete bullshit.
You don’t need a new routine every week. You need to master the basics and progressively get stronger at them. That’s where the real results come from. Rinse and repeat.
