Must-Read: What Workouts You Need to Do

Working out is important. It’s one of the more important things that you’re going to do to keep your body in shape. But with so many workouts out there, and so many different versions and muscles to get in tone, sometimes it may be difficult to know exactly which ones you need to be performing in the gym or at home. With that in mind, there’s also certain exercises and workouts that may work well on, say, women but not men like us. How does one navigate through the tricky landscape of workouts? Well, by learning a bit about which ones are the best.

And so today we’re heading over to Men’s Fitness where they have a list of the 15 most important exercises for guys like us. For example, here are two of the fifteen they recommend:

Bench Press

Every gym-goer in the world has been asked ?Whaddya bench?? at least once. This move is responsible for developing powerful, well-defined pecs, shoulders, and triceps, which lead to a more commanding presence, with or without a shirt on. Combine with that the muscle-building effects of the testosterone this move releases and all you have left to do is watch your ?little black book? fill up.

And this sucker:

Kettlebell Swing

Often confused as a squat and front raise combo for the legs and shoulders respectively, this move is actually an explosive hip hinge, great for the glutes and conditioning. When done properly, the hip-hinge movement combined with the cardio due to the explosiveness of the movement makes for a strong, ripped physique any guy would be jealous of.

So head on over to check out the other exercises, and then get to getting that body of yours in tip-top shape.
