If you're interested in improving your
chest, building it bigger and better, there are two
main pec - building
exercises you can use... barbell...
As a beginner / intermediate trainee, my advice is to simply choose one
main exercise to grow your
chest as big as you want it.
This is why research shows that certain
exercises, like the flat and decline bench press, emphasize the
main (large) portion of the
chest muscle, whereas others, like the incline and reverse - grip bench press, emphasize the smaller upper portion.
It also turns out that incline pressing is a great
exercise to hit your pec major (your
main chest muscle) as well.
What I like to do is to focus on two
main exercises like incline dumbbell press and flat dumbbell press (for
chest) and do 4 sets of 12 - 15 reps for both
exercises.
The
main problem with almost every
chest training routine is that it only focuses on the middle portion of the
chest with basic
exercises like the barbell bench press and dumbbell fly.
The
main problem is that you're doing only one set of one
exercise for each major muscle group — legs,
chest, back, shoulders, calves and abs.
