51 “What’s The Best?” Fitness & Nutrition Questions, Answered In One Line

Top 51 Burning Fitness & Nutrition Questions: 32-40

Fitness, Exercise, and Weight-Lifting, Part 1

 

 

32. Which Exercise is the Best Fat Incinerator?

Dumbbell Snatch

A true full-body movement that requires lower body, upper body, and abdominal power to complete; when using a heavy weight, snatches incinerate fat and open the sweat valves like no other.

 

 

33. Which Exercise is the Best All-Around Muscle Builder?

Deadlifts

Other than being incredible for the back, hamstrings, butt, core, and forearms, deadlifts boost GH and testosterone production — two hormones that increase the rate of muscle growth.

34. What's the Best Triceps Exercise?

Dips

Dips allow you to place a TON of resistance directly on the triceps — a major component of muscle growth — and hit all three heads of the triceps at once.

 

 

 

35. What's the Best All-Around Abs Exercise?

Progressive Ab Planks

Planks — progressed to one-arm planks — stimulate the rectus abdominis, obliques, lower abs, serratus, and transverse abdominis simultaneously and excel when it comes to tightening up the entire core, which produces a flat, tight midsection.

 

 

36. What's the Best Abs Exercise for a Six-Pack?

Cable Crunches

Cable crunches put more resistance on the abs than any other core exercise, which sparks profound muscle growth and digs out a ripped six-pack.

More details here.

 

 

37. What's the Best Exercise for a V-Cut?

Weighted Ab Pulse Ups

Weighted ab pulse ups effectively blast the lower abs, bottom portion of the obliques, and hip flexors all at once — three muscle groups that, when well-defined, form the v-cut.

More details here.

 

 

 

38. What's the Best Obliques Exercise?

Cable Woodchoppers

Intense woodchoppers produce an insane amount of rotational torque, which requires strong contraction and stabilization from the inner and outer obliques.

More details here.

 

 

39. What's the Best Serratus Exercise?

Dumbbell Pullovers

No six-pack is complete without a ripped-up serratus (the little finger muscles below the chest & above the upper abs), which are targeted directly by dumbbell pullovers — heavy ones once you’re able to handle it.

40. What's the Best Exercise for a Wide Back?

Pull-Ups

Pull-ups directly target the lats, upper back, and rear deltoids — three muscle groups that significantly increase the appearance of a wide upper back

    You need to look into Quest bars, they blow larabars out of the water.
     
    If you compare the two they are not even close.
     
    Good looking list other than that.

        Nice, I saw prepackaged bar to me that means Protein bar lol

        • https://www.leanit-up.com/ Bryan @ Lean It UP

           @dr That’s a completely fair point, I should probably make it more specific — it’s now “Best Fruit & Nut Bar”

    Cardio before weights or vice versa if I want to do a combo day at the gym?

    • https://www.leanit-up.com/ Bryan DiSanto

      Always weights/resistance training before cardio on combo days.

      1. Lifting performance drops dramatically when you do a cardio session beforehand — it depletes stored energy that’s critical for muscular strength/endurance.

      2. Lifting and then doing cardio (preferably HIIT) manipulates stored energy levels in such a way that it amplifies your body’s ability to burn fat, making it a lot more efficient.

    Do you still think pure protein is the best RTD shake on the market? What about the new isopure RTD shakes?

    • https://www.leanit-up.com/ Bryan DiSanto

      They’re close, but I’m still a bigger fan of Pure Protein. Don’t love the flavor of Isopure or the added arti. colors.
