While there are tons of variations on upper body exercises, there is one factor that unifies them all...The Arrow.
First of all, a huge thank you to Mike Robertson who initially made me aware of this with the push up,
...but I noticed it as well in the chin up/pull up, the overhead press, and the row. While the paths of these exercises may vary, they all pass through this arrow position at one point or another.
Is this the only way to perform these exercises? Absolutely not. But for the novice lifter, I believe this set up provides a specific foundation on which to build.
