Steven Morris’ Top 11 Exercises For Athletes

According to strength coach Steven Morris in an article over at EliteFTS,  here are the top 11 exercises that build better athletes. I was in full agreement with most of them and do some of them consistently, (in spite of my relative lack of athleticism). The exercises I do regularly are in bold.

1. Deadlift
2. Box Squats
3. Clean and Jerks
4. Box Front Squats
5. Romanian Deadlifts
6. Rows
7. Side Lunges
8. Dumbbell Inclines
9. Sandbags
10. Prowler
11. Snatch Grip Deadlift

I look forward to adding in the others I haven’t been doing, although I am surprised not to see the standard back squat in his top 11.

Take a look at Morris’ article for his descriptions of each.
