There’s an epidemic doing the rounds in the gym, involving both fresh and seasoned lifters walking around with dramatic back arches. It’s the Donald Duck conundrum. With no fix, there’s an opportunity for nagging lower back issues, weak glutes, and non-existent abs. The gut sticks out to the point that you can’t notice much else. It’s a big detraction from a physique, not to mention a recipe for injuries, making every training session one step from disaster.

Do you stack up the plates until your knees refuse to bend, or do you talk yourself down and settle for some actual reps? 

There’s a much better way to go about this. Ignore all the fancy fluff exercises and head straight for the ones that matter. Get the best out of your physiology, and train with your dream shape in mind.
