All skinny hardgainers dream of having awesome pecs. Of building a big powerful chest and slabs of rock hard muscle. I was a skinny hardgainer who longed for awesome pecs and a big powerful chest.
I was fortunate enough to find the key to building those awesome pecs and slabs of ripped, rock hard muscle. ( If a 126lb autograph necked skinny dude like me could, so can you! )
Friends and acquaintances suddenly developed the seemingly vehement appetite to touch and feel my chest. " Are they real? " They would ask.
Women were absolutely biased by my pecs.
I must admit, all this attention made me feel good. I kinda got all big headed!
But how did I go from being a skinny hardgainer to a ' muscle head ' who could not keep the women from his awesome pecs? What exercises did I do?
Barbell Flat Bench Press
The barbell flat bench press is an excellent exercise for upper body strength and a great aboriginal point for anyone trying to build a big powerful chest.
The bench press is the granddaddy of chest exercises and although other movements may work more this day on the pecs, none have the overall stimulating and anabolic causatum that the flat bench press has on the whole musculature of the thoraxic area.
Dumbbell Bench Press
The dumbbell bench press is an excellent alternative to the barbell bench press. It affords you a greater range of movement, i. e a full stretch of the chest muscles on the negative stage of the movement and the ability to really squeeze those pec muscles at the top of the positive stage of the movement
I highly develop that you only proceeding on to this exercise in your quest for awesome pecs once you have succeeded in building up your basic upper body and chest strength from doing the flat bench press. You will gain more confidence as you get stronger and be better able to balance the unitary dumbbells. You will also be able to haft more weight to make the exercise worthwhile.
Barbell Incline Bench Press
The incline bench press is a great exercise for the upper pectoral muscles. It gives you that pec lead just below the clavicle [collar bone] that is so noticeable in bodybuilders.
Incline Dumbbell Press
The incline dumbbell press is also an excellent movement for the upper pecs. It allows for a greater range of movement and the ability to really squeeze the pectoral muscles at the top of the movement.
Bench Flys & Pec Dec Flys
Bench flys and pec dec flys are isolation movements. They are not mass builders.
I have always found either of these movements a great way to do a chest routine. Through these movements isolate the pectoral muscles, they will give you a long pump in the pecs.
Whilst the pump does not give any you any great muscle building advantages, it ' s psychological benefits should not be underestimated. Arnold Shwarzenegger glaringly extolled it ' s virtues in the 1977 consideration breaking bodybuilding movie, Pumping Iron. ' ' It is better than accession ' ' he said.
Damn, always figured there was earnest transcendental about the Rector!
The bliss of the pump, the hoopla of blood into the worked muscle - the pecs in this mention - is quite unconvincing.
It gives you a great sensuality of satisfaction. You know you have had an excellent workout and you can just understand those awesome pecs and a big powerful chest.
Two Instance Chest Routines
Routine 1
Flat Bench Press 5 sets comprising 2 light heated up sets of 10 - 12 reps and 3 heavy sets of 6 - 10reps

Incline Barbell Bench Press, 3 heavy sets of 6 - 10 reps
Flat Bench Flys, 3 base heavy sets of 8 - 10 reps.
Elicit to close up properly by archetypal with two light sunny up sets on the primary exercises. Warmed up muscles work more efficiently and also incalculably reduces the danger of injury.
You will consideration that each routine totals no more than 11 sets, including the close ups, giving you 9 heavy sets.
This will give you a short, sharp intense workout and prevent any possiblity of over training

You do not want to copy the typical routine of steroid using pro - bodybuilders..... Powerful long routines will avail you blank but permanently painful joints from the stress of overtraining
