Your definition of a "basic compound"

[NATE]

I was advising a friend on another board with a workout program and i had told him to stick with the basic compounds for at least 6 weeks. he replied with "what is a basic compound?" so i told him. Thing is that three other people told him what it meant and all three of us ha a different answer. How can this be?

So, i was wondering what YOU think a basic compound means????

Re: Your definition of a "basic compound"

as in basic compound movements?

if so, i would go with your standard barbell presses, squats, rows, deadlifts.

basically movements that incorporate multiple muscle groups
