Best Chest Exercises For A Bigger Chest
In order to get a bigger chest you need to ensure that every single rep and set hits those chest muscles hard. The best chest exercises directly target and stimulate the full pec area.
All to often I hear in the gym people complaining that despite all the chest exercises they do they cannot seem to get that pumped feel. So here are some of the best chest exercises and chest training techniques to help you get a bigger chest.
1. Best Chest Exercises: Pre-Exhaust Chest Training
When performing the bench press the chest muscles are not fully activated due to help that is given by the shoulders and triceps.
So to turn the ordinary bench press into one of the best chest exercises you need to adopt the pre exhaust tehnique. This involves firstly doing an isolation movement one of the best examples is the flat or incline flye. Do 8 reps of the dumbell fly and then immediately with no rest go straight into the bench press and pump out as many reps as possible. The idea being that the flyes pump and prime the chest prior to the concentrated effort on the pec muscles from the bench press. This ensures maximum effort is exerted on the chest muscles to give that pumped feeling.
Here is a great little trick that I use to blast the intensity level of the dumbell flyes movement to make this pre exhaust set one of the best chest exercises Read the rest of this entry

When I first started building my chest muscles I was like so many people literally blinkered. Thinking it was as simple as doing various types of bench presses, okay initially the growth of the chest muscles was good but it wasn’t long before I was hitting plateaus in growth and strength. So here are my five tips for blasting through those chest muscle plateaus to build phenomenal levels of chest muscle.
How to build chest muscle tip 1: The exercise ball
This is a much overlooked technique for building chest muscle but can be extremely effective. First perform a set of dumbbell flyes on a normal flat bench aim for between 8 to 10 reps. Then without any rest select a lighter weighted set of dumbbells and do between 12 to 15 reps on an exercise ball. Take a 2 minutes rest and then repeat this superset twice more.
How to build chest muscle tip 2: Partial reps
Think you have taken your chest muscles to the point of fatigue, well then think again. By using partial reps in the incline bench press you can blast your chest muscles into new levels of growth. Two things to consider here, first you will need a spotter and secondly only perform partial reps on the last set of the three sets. On your last set when you can no longer push complete reps, continue repping in the lower half of the movement until you are unable to move the weight anymore. This alone will blast your chest.
