Dumbbell Pullovers !!
muscles, weights, fitness, chest, pecs
|
Lie flat on your back on a flat bench. Begin by holding the dumbbell above your chest with your elbows slightly bent. Slowly lower the dumbbell back so as to stretch your arms and the dumbbell back behind your head as far as you can reach. Your arms and the dumbbell will actually go behind/above your head and will drop down below the bench - this will really give you a great stretch. Return the dumbbell to the start position slowly, focusing on keeping your elbows locked in the bent position. This is an exercise you do not need to use maximum weight. Great chest expansion of the rib gage, Pectoralis Major muscles and Serratus Anterior muscles !! If you only do the standard flat bench press you will "love" this exercise.

Cable Crossover Chest Exercise !!
chest, pecs, flys, muscles, crossovers
|
For strength and pectoral definition try Cable Crossovers. Stand between two high cable pulley attachments. Grasp a pulley in each hand, bend slightly forward keeping your elbows slightly bent but locked and perform a fly movement by bringing your hands from out at your sides to directly in front of you. Repeat. This "hugging" motion will hit muscles you are not hitting on the bench press and dumble presses. Start with a light weight and work up accordingly. You can also at the peak of this movement flex or squeeze your pec muscles together for a one-count for an added "BONUS". Your "good soreness" will be rewarded. Enjoy !!
