25:56REAL Science Based Chest Exercise (SUPER EFFECTIVE!)
From the creator
Science based chest exercises should theoretically be much more effective than random chest workouts and pec exercises since they should be proven. In this video, I’m going to show you how to get a bigger chest using a technique that has stood the test of time in the rehabilitation field. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) utilizes the concept of diagonals when it comes to getting muscles to work harder and more forcefully. 60% off all AX programs - http://athleanx.com/x/442-workouts Subscribe to this channel here - http://bit.ly/2b0coMW In order to train your chest you need to take the muscle through its full range of motion and provide optimal resistance to the muscle throughout the exercise. We know that the pecs will adduct the shoulder the arm across the chest (acting at the shoulder), internally rotate the shoulder and drive the arm out in front of the body. In its stretched position you would do the opposite. Horizontally abducting the arm and externally rotating the shoulder will put the pecs on a greater stretch and eccentrically position the arm into a ready state to perform the next rep. Using the concept of PNF diagonals, you can turn your ordinary cable crossovers into something that is much more effective for building a bigger chest. This is due to the fact that you can increase the strength of contraction by doing this and therefore drive more tension into the muscle rep after rep after rep. If you want to build a big chest you need to ad
