Powerful Chest Muscles Like Super Heroes?
By Chris Chew
Take a walk
into any gym and you will see menof all shape and sizes pumping
their chest insanely. Why? Because we are genetically wired up to
think that by having a strong and powerful chest is a way to ward
off adversaries and also a natural female magnet. The fairer sex
instinctively loves to snuggle up on a strong chest as it gives
them a sense of security and protection. Even in the animal kingdom,
the gorilla pounds its chest to scare off foes and attract mates.
Your chest muscles
or pectoralis or commonly called the pecs is a big muscle group.
For your chest muscles to grow fast and massive, you will have to
lift heavy and in excellent form. The fundamental exercises which
you must do for your chest routine should be the flat bench press.
Stay away from the machines. Use free weights. Flat presses work
your entire chest muscles, and are probably the best mass chest
muscles builder. Dumbbells are superior to barbells in that they
allow a greater range of motion, more balancing work is required
and therefore recruiting more fibres and synergistic muscles for
massive growth. However you should do barbell presses for variations
and shocking effect for further muscle growth.
Next will be
the incline dumbbell press. Inclines work the top of your chest
muscles giving you the broad and wide chest like those of comic
book super heroes. The exercise is executed the same as the flat
press except that you are lying on an incline bench. I do not recommend
decline presses as that will develop your lower pecs and gives you
a drooping chest look. We want a strong and powerful chest, not
tits!
Another great
mass builder for your chest is what I call the superman dip. If
you do the vertical dip, you will end up working your triceps and
shoulders more. If you lean forward and tuck in your chin into your
chest and perform the exercise like a plane taking off or Superman
flying towards the sky, then you will place major stress on your
chest for a full and wide chest development. Make sure to go down
to where you feel a deep stretch in your chest. The bottom part
of the rep is where you chest gets the work.
Always work
you chest muscles with heavy weights and in execllent form throw
in some flyes and weight pushups now and then for all rounded chest
muscles development.
