Beginners Chest Workout

Type: Chest Workout
This beginners workout is the best chest workout to get you started on the road to building a killer set of pecs.

This workout incorporates supersets to really hit the chest muscles hard. A Superset is two exercises from the same muscle group performed back to back with no rest . This fatigues the chest muscle more than the movements would if they were performed separately with rest in between stimulating muscle growth. It also has the advantage of making your workout more efficient as you get in more exercises in a shorter time period. Each superset is completed for the required number of sets before moving on to the next Superset.

  • Exhale as you lift the weight, and inhale as you lower it again.
  • Choose a weight that you can just manage the required number of reps with.
  • Take 1-2 minutes rest between each set.

@franticboii: try pushups 3x15 or 4x10

@Franticboii - I'm not sure if there is a strictly manual resistance workout in our free section as it stands, but we are putting the finishing touches on a home-based program that may be perfect for you (you will need a set of dumbbells for some of it). Stay tuned!
