How To Build Your Chest Muscles Properly
By Karen Sessions

How To Build Your Chest Muscles Properly There are myths floating around regarding women and chest training, everything from chest training will make your boobs disappear to chest training will dramatically increase your boob size.

Both of these myths are just that, myths.

I’m going to tell you how you can build a beautiful and sexy chest by simple weight training tactics that can be implemented just once a week in less than 15 minutes.

First, let me tell you why those myths are myths.

Smashing the Chest Training and Boob Shrinkage Myth:

Weight training cannot and will not make your boobs shrink. Breast tissue is made up of fat tissue. Burning body fat will result in smaller breast size.

Weight training develops lean muscle tissue. Adding strength training develops the underlying chest muscle and will add more shape to your upper body, creating those eye-pleasing and sexy curves.

To put it bluntly, the only way to lose your breast size is to lose a lot of body fat.

Smashing the Chest Training and Boob Swelling Myth:

Weight training won’t make your boobs double in size. Weight training builds the underlying muscle underneath the breast’s fatty tissue. Muscle is lean and dense, fat is bulky and mushy.

Muscle tissue added to your chest area will be lean and dense, giving your chest shape. The added muscle tissue may give your breasts that needed enhancement and perk.

Bottom line, a good chest training program will add beautiful shape and stunning high cleavage so you look snazzy in that hot dress.

How To Build Chest Muscles Properly Now that I got the nagging myths out of the way, let’s discuss a good chest program to heed the results of a hot body.

Bench Press

The bench press is the core exercise for the chest muscle. When you do the flat bench press (barbell, dumbbells, or machine) you are hitting the entire chest muscle as one unit.

It’s important to build your flat bench press because a strong chest will assist in other exercises.

Incline Press

The incline press is another core movement for the chest. The incline press shifts more of the stress to the upper chest, enhancing your cleavage.

A little plus with the incline dumbbell press is you can get on an adjustable incline bench and change the angle for each set or each workout. The higher you adjust the incline the more of the upper chest area you work.

Chest Dips

An overlooked chest exercise is the chest dips. Probably the reason this excellent exercise is pushed aside is because it requires raw strength to execute.

If you are a beginner or haven’t ever tried the chest dips, many gyms have assisted dip machines that allow anyone at any fitness level to perform dips.

Ideally, you want to get to a point where you can do chest dips freestyle for best chest development.

Chest Flys

The chest fly is an isolation exercise that puts stress on the inner part of the chest.

The chest fly can be used in a variety of ways. The basic is the fly machine (pec deck). Another way to do the chest fly is with dumbbells, which allows you to target either the upper inner, middle inner, or lower chest area, depending on how you adjust the incline bench.
