How To Build Chest Muscles Fast!
Posted by Gain Muscle Mass on Feb 11, 2009 in Build Muscle, Weight Lifting Workouts | 15 commentsA lot of guys are interested in learning how to build chest muscles fast safely and naturally. While it’s fairly easy to figure out how to train your biceps to get bigger, most guys really don’t know how to go about building their chest muscles.
The truth of the matter is that training your chest muscles for massive growth is very similar to training any major muscle group on your body for growth. The key to making your chest grow, is to overload your chest muscles with each and every workout.
My favorite way to provide muscle stimulating overload is to use mulit-joint compound exercises to form the bulk of my chest workouts. I like compound movements because they allow you to use very heavy weights (the same kind that stimulate muscle growth) through a complete range of motion. This allows you to stimulate muscle growth not only in your chest, but also in various stabilizer and muscles throughout your body.
Here’s a short list of compound exercises that target the muscles of the chest:
- Bench Press
- Close Grip Bench Press
- Incline Press
- Decline Press
- Push-Up
- Dumbbell Flys
- Dumbbell Bench Press
- Dumbbell Incline Press
- Pec Deck Flys
- Cable Crossover Flys
- Dumbbell Pullovers
- Barbell Pullovers
- Weighted Dips
Aside from training heavy with free weight compound exercises, the muscle gain basics still apply. Make sure to..
- Drink enough water
- Rest and Recover Between Workouts
- Eat enough of the right foods at the right times
Train with the appropriate intensity level
