Why isn't it common to lift upside down? Wouldn't this grant you perfect symmetry if you did the same amount of sets as anti-sets?
Some examples:
Anti-curls, the best possible triceps exercise
Anti-squats, working the hams and whatever is opposite the glutes (abductors?)
The anti bench is the chest supported row and people already do this.
Anti OHP would just be lat pulldown
This shit would probably make your abs pop like crazy. Can anyone think of more?

Where are you getting your Bro.h.D.? I've done hanging abs but this is next level.

Makes sense on paper no real life. Aren't you already doing anti-lat pull by doing shoulder press? Etc.

Its horribly inconvenient and most gymgoers lack any athleticism to be upside down.
Also any added weight would cause extreme blood pressure in the head, so anyone doing this would need to be super disciplined and w a spotter.

I have done upside down abdomen crunches and honestly its the sole exercise I approve.
Even handstand pushups are retarded unless you are a clown.
Anything with weights is no-go.

This is the main reason, that shit is not good for your body especially during intense exercise

The average gym normie would die doing any of those exercises. They even had to invent machines to strap normies into so they can only do one safe motion.

upside down curl should still use bicep tho??? wdym

They wouldn't, you'd get a gravity assist on the actual curl motion, then work against gravity on what is normally the way "down", where you now engage the triceps instead.

Symmetry is overrated, don’t make that mistake

maybe if you were in space
