What are your guys's favorite exercise that you never see anyone do and is generally underrated
 
Farmer's walk. I never even see devoted squatters or deadlifters doing them. Not that we get many of them...
 
A few years back its would have been squats. Now they are one of the most overrated in my opinion.

Now I'm saying farmers walks or other heavy carries.
 
pardon my ignorance but what are the benefits of farmers walks? I've never done it, should I add it to my program?
 
Farmers walks just make you strong all over and then give you brutal traps that make it look like you actually work out.
 
I've come to appreciate farmers walks, trap bar deadlifts and front squats this year.

All three fantastic (some of which for reasons stated already).
 
From a powerlifting point of view we all know rack deadlifts are great but also from a bodybuilding point of view rack deads are great for back development and thickness.
