Four Weeks to a better CHEST

Most beginning weight lifters are after two things; big guns and huge Pecs. In this post I will talk about simple keys to follow while building up your chest and at the end I will give you week one's routine. The following three weeks will be released starting next week, March 13, 2011. These keys, when followed will help your chest gain the maximum results possible. Here they are;
  1. Check your EGO at the door. If you can't bench 300 pounds cleanly don't try it. Do what your body can take and muscle WILL grow.
  2. Use Proper form. Using proper form will keep all the resistance and strain focused on your chest and not your delts or triceps.
  3. Don't bounce the bar off your chest. This is not only dangerous but it releases tension of your pectorals and puts it on other muscles, this is not good
  4. Use a spotter. Using a spotter can help you get stronger and more defined because you will be able to do more reps. I didn't say more weight because doing more reps will help you develop muscle.

I know these Keys may sound simple but they are the basic fundamentals of learning to build a stronger and bigger chest. So, are you ready for Week One's routine? Here it is:

Exercise Sets Reps

Bench Press 2-3 15-20

Dumbbell Bench Press 3 6-8
