5 EXERCISES TO BUILD MUSCLE
How can we say that some exercises are better for muscle building than others? Well, best exercises to build mass are compound exercises that require more than one muscle group. Compound Exercises are better muscle mass builders than Isolation Exercises. If you want to gain muscle mass you should focus on compound exercises mostly and with small number of isolation exercises in your training routine.
1. BARBELL SQUAT
Squat is a King of Mass Building Exercises. If you want to become big and strong you must lift a barbell with a lot of weights on your shoulders and do squats. Squat is the best exercises for building lower body muscles and one the best exercises for strength. Legs are half of our body and to build bigger legs you have to squat heavy. Beware of bad form, start with lifting a easier weight until you learn to do squats with a good form, then start adding weight.
3. PULL UP/CHIN UP
Pull Up with all of its variations is one of the best exercises for mass. Barbell Squat and Bench Press are performed with barbell and weights and for Pull Up you only need a bar on which you can hang on, but if regular pull ups become easy for you then add weights on your belt or between your legs. Do Pull Ups and Chin Ups, they are both great exercises but Chin Ups are little better for building biceps than regular Pull Ups.

5. DEAD LIFT
Fifth exercises that I consider one of the best muscle building exercises is Dead Lift and it is my least favorite exercises among these five. Why is that? Because muscles that you are working with dead lifts you can also work by doing barbell squats. But it is least favorite for me and that doesn't means that I am not doing it and that you should not doing it. Dead Lift is also a great mass building exercises, so learn how to do it with a perfect form and add it in your workout routine.
