The four best exercises aree the three you listed and Military presses. These four alone can add lots of mass if done correctly

 

[garethhe]

I thought that the military press was more of an upper-arm isolation exercise. Can anybody explain what makes it multi-joint?

Because both your shoulder joint and elbow joint are changing in angle during the lift. An example of an isolation exercise (Single-joint) is the bicep curl. The only joint that changes angle during the lift is your elbow joint.

 

[garethhe]

ah, that makes perfect sense. well put, cowpimp

 

[ALBOB]

Barbell Curls
Calf Raises

What technique are you using that makes these MULTI-joint exercises?
