Best Chest Exercise You’re Not Doing | BUT SHOULD BE!
FULL PLAYLIST (Routines For All Muscles): • MAKE IT BIGGER! - Fix Muscle Imbalances!! A big full chest is what all men want. But if going to the gym week after week doing the same exact thing isn't working, then it might be time to try out a new technique for growth! Adding this exercise to your current routine 2 - 3 days a week will bring the kind of results you only used to see when you first started training with those newbie gains!

Today I’m going to teach you a new workout technique that’s going to take your chest gains to the next level, especially if you have a flat chest or you’ve hit a muscle building plateau. This workout is going to be a little different than what you’re used to, and the reason is because I’m pretty confident the majority of you reading this that are having a hard time building your chest, you’re only taking advantage of two out of the three muscle building mechanisms. Chances are you’re going to the gym and benching as heavy as you possibly can, and then probably throwing in some flys along the way as well. But you’re probably staying in that 6 – 8 or 8 – 12 rep range. While that’s all well and good, like I said, that only allows you to take advantage of two out of the three muscle building mechanisms. Those mechanisms are… Mechanical Tension: This is about the load or weight that you put on your muscles when you exercise. Muscle Damage: Occurs when you exercise and cause micro tears to your muscles. In order to fix these tears, your body creates new muscle tissue, causing your muscles to grow. Now it’s time to implement the third muscle building mechanism to your next workout, to help spark new growth and gains, and that mechanism is… Metabolic Stress: Performing exercises that rely heavily on anaerobic glycolysis for energy production. This type of technique is what gives you THE PUMP that we all love. It’s kind of funny that we don’t take advantage of this muscle building mechanism as much as we should, because we love the pump! The pump is the best feeling in the world, that’s what makes you want to go to the gym. If you haven’t had a good pump in a while, this workout is going to rock your boat HARDCORE! Exercise #1: Barbell Bench Press (6 – 8 Reps, 8 Sets) You’re going to go to the gym, and you’re going to do 8 sets of a flat barbell bench press. The reason why you’re using a barbell rather than using dumbbells is because I want you to really take advantage of mechanical tension, and lift as HEAVY as you possibly can. You’re going to lift so heavy that you might even need a spotter to help you, so that you can maximize those 6 – 8 repetitions for all 8 sets. You might be wondering why you’re doing 8 sets of just a flat bench press. In my opinion, each and every single one of you is going to be able to progress faster and more efficiently by sticking with one exercise that gives you the most bang for your buck, rather than doing five separate exercises. A lot of us go to the gym and keep moving from machine to machine to machine, or exercise to exercise to exercise, with no real focus on just building up that mind-muscle connection, and allowing our bodies to get stronger and lift as heavy as possible. With this movement, only rest 90 – 120 seconds between each set. Exercise #2: Plate Press (200 Reps: 20 – 30 Reps At A Time) As soon as you’re finished there, you’re going to go over and do an exercise called a plate press. You’re going to perform the movement on a 30 degree incline bench, and you’re going to complete 200 repetitions, doing at least 20 – 30 reps per set, while resting as little as possible in-between those sets. That high amount of repetitions is going to allow us to take advantage of that metabolic stress. Doing that many repetitions after pre-fatiguing / pre-exhausting your chest on the barbell bench press is going to engorge your chest with so much blood and such a huge pump, that it’s not going to be able to anything besides expand and grow and adapt.
