How You Can Bench Press Your Way To Huge Pecs, Massive Deltoids, And Impressive Triceps!
The bench press, if you work into heavy weights, is probably the best all-round exercise for the chest muscles. In fact, the bench press will develop the pectorals, deltoids, and has overlapping benefits for the triceps.
There’s no denying that some exercises are better than others. Any exercise will build muscle if you work hard enough at it, but some do it better. There’s good exercises that build bulk and power rapidly. There’s others that do it a little slower. Some are so crumby you’d be starving on your old-age pension before you got the build you wanted. Picking the right exercises is always a problem for the inexperienced bodybuilder.
Generally speaking, the best exercises for bulk and power are the ones that bring the most muscle groups into action and allow you to use the heaviest weights. The deadlift, in other words, is a whole lot better for you than fiddling around with your Playstation controller. Always use the big exercises. Herculean physiques and tremendous power are built by heavy weights. If you want a big body, use the big exercises.
Don’t be frightened by using relatively high reps, and don’t be stampeded into using low rep stuff. The value of low reps has been greatly exaggerated. Moderately high reps, properly used, provide umpteen times the growth stimulation, and are so much better for your health that comparisons become ridiculous.
If you want huge pecs, do your bench presses in strict style with a medium grip. Work hard on them and try to force the poundage way up. There’s no kidding yourself on this or any other exercise. If you use baby sized weights, then you can expect baby sized muscles. It’s as simple as that and there’s no way out of it. Nothing less will do. If you think it will, forget it.
The biggest fallacy in bodybuilding today is the foisted notion that you can build big powerful muscles without hard work on heavy weights. You can’t do it brothers, and you’re wasting your time trying. If you’re not gaining like you should, give your training poundage a long hard look. The fault may be entirely yours.
