Chest is the most favorite body part to train, all over the world. In some gyms, Monday is completely dedicated to chest lovers. Gyms on this particular day of the week are heavily crowded in almost every corner of the world because the chest workout lovers are present to hit their favorite muscle with full interest and passion. But some people still feel it difficult to enhance their lower chest.
If you are one of such people who are struggling to improve the lower chest then the below given tips are just for you.
- As per the priority principle, which ever muscle is weak, train it first. It works every time because when you enter the gym filled with energy you can lift heavy with your best form and focus. Training lower chest in the beginning will give best results.
- Heavy decline bench press should be done as you enter the gym, after a warm-up of rotator cuff. Don’t waste your time doing pushups and other light exercises. You will just burn your energy on useless stuff. You need to hit the lower chest hard so lift heavy in the decline bench press for 6-8 reps.
- Dumbbell press on decline bench after decline bench press. It is great to add dumbbell press on the decline bench, in your workout to focus with a little variation on the lower chest.
- Always do parallel bar dips in your chest workout. This exercise not only provide thickness to the lower chest but also shapes it as it hits the pectoral minor which play a great role in shaping the chest. It also enhance the triceps in the same movement.
- Decline dumbbell fly. When you need to improve your lower chest, never do dumbbells fly on as regular bench. Do them on a decline bench where you can hit overall chest but put a little more effort on the lower chest.
When you are finished with the chest routine do 15 reps 3 sets for cable cross where your hands will meet below the chest level (for the lower chest). If they meet in front of the chest then you are training your mid section where as if they meet in front of the belly, you are doing it good.
