Many people may encounter such a situation, that is, they know that their chest muscles are already very strong. Compared with the other person, their bench press strength has reached a very great level, but their chest muscles still look full.
There are many reasons for this. Although there are many actions we can use in fitness, the effect of each action is slightly different. Choosing different training methods and exercises for different purposes is our compulsory course.
So why do some people always feel that their chest muscles are not full when they exercise? We can think about the reasons carefully, but there are actually only three reasons.
First, the middle seam of the chest muscle is not enough. When we look at whether a person's chest muscles are full enough, we always observe whether his middle seam is enough, because this is the focus of our vision.
When we exercise the pectoral muscles, there are many actions aimed at the middle seam of the pectoral muscles. For example, holding your chest and lying on your back are good exercises for this part, and the fullness of your chest muscles has a great relationship with this part.
Many people are quite good at the weight of bench press, but not good enough at the symmetry of chest muscles. The middle seam of chest muscle is lacking by many people. This part is not strong enough. There seems to be something missing in the middle of the whole chest muscle, and it will not be full anyway.
Second, the lower part of the pectoral muscle. Our pectoral muscles are divided into outer edges and middle seams according to the inside and outside, and we divide the pectoral muscles into upper and lower structures, that is, upper, middle and lower parts. We can aim at the lower part of the pectoral muscle to increase the fullness of the pectoral muscle when exercising it.
If the lower part of our pectoral muscle is particularly plump, the whole pectoral muscle will appear droopy. We can lift the pectoral muscles with our hands, so that the fullness of the pectoral muscles will be higher.
Many people ignore this part of the exercise when exercising the chest muscles, and even some people will not exercise the lower part of the chest muscles for a long time, which is very bad.
The lower part of the pectoral muscle can be flexed and stretched by the parallel bars arm, and can also be pushed by reclining under the barbell. These two chest pushing methods are good actions to exercise the lower part of the chest muscles.
Third, the upper part of the pectoral muscle. Many people don't get the details when they exercise their chest muscles, but none of our movements are perfect and no training method is perfect.
Therefore, when we exercise the pectoral muscles, we must pay attention to strengthening the strength of the upper part of the pectoral muscles, because this part is the weakest part of the pectoral muscles, and many people just lie flat or use equipment to exercise when exercising the pectoral muscles.
However, the upper part of our chest muscles should be pushed up and down, and there are few movements that can exercise these muscles, so many people have never seen such an exercise method. As a result, there is no sense of flesh in the upper part of the pectoral muscle, and the middle seam of the pectoral muscle cannot be practiced.
