I am not overlooking diversity, the need for specialty training, changes in needs or any of the necessary variables for an effective exercise program. BUT - if you could only have one exercise for the rest of your life, I hope it&#39;s as good as the deadlift. If you could only have one exercise for the rest of your life, what would it be? 2016-08-14T18:20:31-04:00 1805905 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Thanks to <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="77973" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/77973-25u-signal-support-systems-specialist">SGT Private RallyPoint Member</a> for making me think of this in a conversation on one of his threads.

I saw an 87 year old man doing these recently; it was quite inspirational. He probably could have outdone more 20 year olds! <br /><br />1. Down.<br />2. Kick feet back<br />3. Pushup (down) <br />4. Pushup (up)<br />5. Kick feet out.<br />6. Kick feet in. <br />7. Kick feet up.<br />8. Jump<br />9. Land into full squat (ensuring a soft landing). <br />10. Stand up.
