I like articles like this. We all have those certain exercises that you just don't get.

For me its:

Bent Press
1 hand swing or hand 2 hand swings
Kettlebell Floor Press
Bent over barbell rows






I love pulling from the floor, but I kind of agree with Thib on this.

Power cleans and snatch grip deadlifts are way more than enough for me. I would even dare to suggest that heavy double KB cleans could cover all my needs and then some.

"I think we often spend too much time focusing on max fitness
and not nearly enough on maintaining our minimums.
It seems we need to think sustainable rather than obtainable.
Meaning whatever we do today, we can do it again tomorrow.
Never taking so much from ourselves that we can't."
