execution of chest press

Workout tips for Chest bench press

Chest, its always the part that most of the gym buddies would love to focus on, yet i have come across with lot of beginner do not execute it right.

First of all , clear off the mindset where lifting heavier and you will get a bigger chest. This is an absolutely big mistake that you are making if you are aiming for the growth of your muscle.
Always lift with a proper weight where you can control and maintain the tension throughout the SET.

Point A

This would be our starting position and Point B would be our ending position

From Point A, control the weights down with just your chest muscle while not compromising your shoulder and down to Point B, do not rest on Point B and immediately contract it up back to Point A again. While pushing it up, remember that you are WORKING YOUR CHEST and not the other parts. This is all about your MUSCLE MINDING.

Keep practicing it with an appropriate weight with a tempo of 4010.

once you have master it, then only gradually increase the weight.

There are some points that we have to focus on which is 

- maintain the tension throughout the movement

- do not arch your back 

- go according your RANGE OF MOTION( if you are feeling discomfort at the bottom of the reps, try to search for your maximum range where you dont feel uncomfy and stretch more on the parts that you are feeling tight)

Lastly , feel the lactic acid that built up during the workout and you will feel the difference comparing to a heavy weight and uncontrolled workout.
