Do This ONE Thing For a Bigger Chest…
May 26, 2024If you want to build a bigger chest then you need to turn your attention to chest building tips that can be done on any chest exercise, can be learned quickly, and can be implemented on the very first rep you perform.
Enter the chest workout master tip.
The chest master tip is a simple cue that easy to learn and can be implemented on every chest exercise you do – whether that is the bench press, the dip, pushups, crossovers, and everything in between.
The key to the chest master tip is that it can be applied to any exercise, is something that can be done immediately, and requires no extra equipment to get it done.
This chest workout master tip is simple: unshrug your shoulders. You see, it is a common tendency to subconsciously shrug your shoulders and traps when performing chest exercises. You might think that this has no effect on your chest workouts, but that is where you would be wrong.
Not only does the master tip assist with stability in every chest exercise you do, but it makes sure that the pecs have greater engagement. When you are shrugged, the front delt is recruited more heavily than it would be otherwise meaning that the additional work that could be done by the chest is being taken over by the shoulders.
If a bigger chest is what you are after, then you need to make sure that the chest is recruited as much as possible on every chest exercise you do in your chest workouts. You can get this done with the chest workout master tip of unshrugging your shoulders.
