Great Chest Works Out

By Richard Daniels


A great deal of people want to exercise their chest muscles but end up exercising deltoids and traps instead! Correct form and a few "insider" ideas can have you finally getting the results you've always desired.

To start with, you can warm up making use of the inclined chest press. It will get the blood flowing to your pectoral muscles and loosen up your deltoids. The inclined chest press is primarily used for training the upper chest muscles, however, if you squeeze well, you will get some tension all over.

Make certain your seat is adjusted at the correct height; when your hands are on the handles, your thumbs ought to be nipple height. You shouldn't take the machine all the way back to starting point with every rep however must stop when your elbows are at a ninety degree angle.

Make sure your feet are placed solidly on the ground and exhale as you push the weights up. Keep your elbows pointing towards the ground at all times.

After that, you can move onto a body building traditional workout; the flat bench flyes. Approximately 90 percent of the people in a gym do them wrong, sadly! To be able to do them properly, you should make use of weights that are not too heavy. If the weights are too heavy, you will be forced to limit your stretch, and the result will be that you will do something which is more similar to a dumbbell bench press.

Choose medium weights and lie on your back on the bench press. Keep your feet on the ground and your lower back curved. Curving your back will prevent you from using your deltoids and traps instead of your chest muscles for the exercise.

Gradually go into a low and regulated stretch, making sure that your arms are symmetrical, then exhale and bring your arms back up. If you bring your arms too far up, making the pinheads touch, you will lose all the tension in your chest. Rather bring your arms up just until they are just above your underarms, then go back down.

When you have finished your sets of flyes, you can go for a flat hammer press or barbell. The barbell is potentially an exceptional kind of training however it requires the assistance of a training buddy.

The cable crossover is quite uncomplicated, but be careful not to flex over whilst doing it. Your feet must be staggered, your back should be straight and your palms should be facing outwards. They shouldn't be at belly height but they need to be at chest height when you bring your arms in front of you. Be careful not to swing the weights. Keep your movements controlled and slow.

To end off, you can go for a dumbbell pullover. This exercise was very popular in the very early weight-lifting days, then it got put aside in favor of the machines, but just recently it is beginning to be made use of once again due to the fact that it offers extremely good results.

Grab your dumbbell with both hands and gradually bring it up over your head. Slowly come back out and bring your arms above your chest.

These five workouts as a group are just about the best training you can get for remarkable pecs!
