There are a few exercises that have stood the test of time
  and made numerous men and women famous and rich.
Athletes, bodybuilders, models and even Hollywood actors
  have used these exercises for a very long time and they
have worked wonders for them. They will work for you too
  but you MUST use them in your workouts. To truly build
   substantial muscle, you need to use less machines and
 more free weights if possible. Machines have their place,
    don't get me wrong. But the old school, time tested
    exercises are perfect for overall mass development.
Barbell Squat - Whether it's the front squat or the back
  squat, when it comes to overall mass development, the
 squat is virtually unsurpassed. Since you recruit so many
  different muscles throughout the movement, it is quite
    literally the king for overall mass gain. There is much
  controversy on whether you must squat parallel or even
lower. I have trained with Olympic weightlifters who squat
 all the way to the ground and they have never as much as
        hinted at any knee problems. So there you go.
Romanian Deadlift - The famed deadlift is a devil of an
     exercise which I truly despise. It is one of the most
physically demanding exercises I ever have to perform but
 I cannot deny its effectiveness. The deadlift is primarily a
 lower back exercise and it's responsible for creating that
deep ridge in the middle of the your back (median furrow)
               that makes it appear thicker.
Clean & Jerk/Clean & Press - This is another
excellent overall mass builder. unfortunately, just like the
     deadlift, it is equally if not even more physically
    demanding. It is an excellent builder of the traps,
shoulders, legs and core. The technique is very difficult to
 master, often requiring months of tuition before you're
  able to execute it properly. Your best bet is to join an
     Olympic weightlifting club and learn from them.
Bench press - The traditional bench press is probably the
 most popular body building exercises around. It's also an
ego boost to be able to bench press a ridiculous amount of
  weight. However, the smarter ones will know that the
 bench press was really intended to build the chest and so
  using moderately heavy weight is ideal for more rapid
  muscle development. The beauty of the bench press is
that you are able to adjust the angle of the bench to work
             on different parts of your chest.
Bent Over Row - A classic back exercise, the bent over row
   is the bread and butter exercise for anyone looking to
 thicken the back area. It's also a dangerous exercise that
leaves your back in a vulnerable position. Unfortunately, it
has been responsible for just about all the back problems I
have had in the past so I now avoid it like a snail does salt.
 Either way, its efficacy cannot be doubted. It's absolutely
               brilliant for back development.
