Chest Exercise Isometrics: focuses on the strength and tone
of the pectorals both upper and lower (the major muscle of the chest),
but it also works the assisting muscles of the triceps (back of the arms)
and the deltoids (your shoulders).
Here are 3 of the most effective Chest Exercise Isometrics:
Isometric Push Ups:
In the push up position, lower yourself to the half way point.
Breathe out and tense your muscles.
Concentrate on making your chest as tight and hard as possible.
After a few seconds you should feel like youre shaking all over
this is your body working really hard.
Hold this Position for 30 seconds.
Slowly release this is important, after intense contraction
your body needs time to unwind.
Isometric Door Fly:
Stand in a doorway.
Place your hands at chest level on either side of the doorway.
Pull in as though you were trying to press the two sides of the wall together.
Concentrate on making your chest as tight and hard as possible.
Hold this Position for 30 seconds.
Slowly release this is important, after intense contraction
your body needs time to unwind.
Isometric Hand Press:
Stand tall and straight.
Hold your arms out in front of your chest.
Make a slight bend at the elbow, creating a triangle
from the wrist to the elbows.
Press your palms together.
As you do so, concentrate on making your chest
as tight and hard as possible.
If youve followed the above Chest Exercise routine,
it should have taken no longer than 2 minutes and you have
just done a complete chest workout! Your chest should feel warm
(maybe slightly stiff if this is your first time), relaxed and powerful.
Try it again after a day's rest.
