Full Body

Full-body exercises deliver maximum impact in minimal time. By engaging multiple muscle groups in a single movement, they improve coordination, strength, and conditioning all at once — perfect for general fitness or time-efficient training.

What Counts as a "Full Body" Exercise?

Full-body movements involve more than just one joint or region — they demand work from both the upper and lower body, often with core engagement too. In Volym, this includes:

• Compound Lifts: Like deadlifts and cleans that hit multiple areas in one rep.
• Dynamic Circuits: Fast-paced movements that keep your heart rate up.
• Explosive Training: Great for power, coordination, and carryover to sport.

These are ideal for athletes, weekend warriors, or anyone who wants to train smarter, not longer.

Popular Full Body Exercises

Here are some of the top total-body movements in Volym:

• Deadlifts: Full posterior chain, grip, and core strength.
• Clean & Press: Power from the floor to overhead.
• Kettlebell Swings: Glutes, hamstrings, core, and cardio — all in one.
• Burpees: A classic full-body movement for conditioning.
• Thrusters: Squat + press combo that taxes the entire system.

💡 Pro tip: Focus on form first — full-body movements require more coordination and control than isolation work.

Equipment for Full Body Training

Full-body exercises work with almost anything — or nothing at all:

• Barbells
• Dumbbells
• Kettlebells
• Bodyweight
• Other (e.g. sandbags, sleds, ropes)

Mix tools and tempos to target strength, conditioning, or power.
