Rare and unconventional exercises tier list! These are weird, and only one is S tier! Behind the neck press - D tier It can put strain on your shoulder joint and I’d just press to the front. D tier. Jefferson curl - A tier This is a really weird looking deadlift where you curl your back forward on the way down and then uncurl it as you lift. It looks dangerous but it’s great for preventing back pain as long as you start light and gradually add weight. Jefferson Curls are going in A tier. Reverse Nordic curl - A tier It looks freaky but it gives a deeper quad stretch compared to any other exercise I’ve ever done. It’s a bit awkward at first, but I still have to go with A tier. Keenan Flaps - C tier This one is big on tiktok and it does isolate the lats well but I find it more awkward than a standard lat pull-in. I rock with Keenan but I gotta go with C tier. Calf machine shrug - Close to S tier, but I’ll go A tier This one looks gimmicky but I promise you, the upper trap mind muscl
