When the pecs are tight and in great condition they make you feel good as well as generate a lot of welcomed stares and sometimes touches. If you have always dreamed of having the kind of chest Superman would be proud of, but you just have not been sure where to start then look no further. Grant Michael's has put together an excellent weight training guide that not only gives you fundamental exercises for getting your ideal set of pecs, but also explains how each exercise works and on which muscles. In 21 days you will wonder why you did not always look so buff. How Will This Guide Lead You to Perfect Pectorals? Easy, through progressive overload. This is a method of increasing the endurance that is placed on your muscles with weights and different positions. The muscles, in turn, will step up to meet the challenge. Through weight lifting combined with the recommended rest stages and rotations, you will have firm and hard lines that will make it difficult to keep your shirt on. You will get a detailed explanation of when it is best to use, Isolation Exercises - focus on one set of muscle groups such as the biceps only or the triceps only. OR Compound Exercises - combines different muscles located in different parts of the body to promote a more even mass increase. Grant has chosen to use this guide as an introduction to compound workouts. This will be more beneficial on your start as you will be less prone to injuries, and you will learn how to spread out your workout to ensure one area of your body does not get disproportional to another area. What Type of Workouts Should You Expect? Inside this guide you will be taught how to perform 10 types of compound exercises. Each workout has illustrations that will allow you to see if you are performing them right. As with compound exercises, your pectorals and chest muscles will not be the only area of your body affected with each workout. You will also be working out your triceps, shoulder muscles,biceps, back muscles, and abdominals. The main overall goal with each of the exercises provided is to strengthen the muscle fibers located in and around your chest. This will cause the fibers to break a little and when you rest the muscles grow and heal to be able to handle the extra weight. How You Will Finish This Book At the end of this guide, you should have a noticeable increase in the muscle mass located in your chest. After mastering this guide, you will understand the importance of having a balanced workout rotation as well as when it is best to use compound over isolation and vice versa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Only Shoulder Workout You Will Ever Need Weight training is a very thought out process that requires knowing which exercises are not only going to strengthen your muscles, but which ones will also add on to your muscle size. The same is true when it comes to working out your shoulders. You may think that by working out your arms, chest, and upper back your shoulders will automatically be affected. This just is not true. Not only do your genetics play a role in how big your muscles can actually get, but like any other part of your body specific workouts must be applied to the area. Inside Grant Michael's shoulder workout guide, you will get 11 great exercises that are specifically for toning and building your shoulder muscle mass. You will never look back once you fully understand how your body is impacted by each and every exercise you perform. How Will This Book Help You Increase Your Shoulder Muscle Mass? Grant has put together an extremely detailed illustrated guide specialized in weight training for your shoulders. These 11 exercises will not only focus on the specific deltoid muscles located in the shoulders, but also on the areas surrounding them and the full body. This is to help you ensure that your overall physique is in sync. For example, muscles that will be targeted in this guide besides those located in the shoulder include: Quadriceps Hamstrings Gluteal Abdominal Back Triceps Not only will you get an even workout, but you will learn how to increase your muscle size through safe and recommended methods. You will be taught how to master top-of-the-line weight training exercises that people at the top of their field perform. Why Do You Need a Workout Focused on Your Shoulders? Weight training is a very specific type of working out. The main goal is to obviously build weight onto your body, and when adding this weight you want it to be evenly distributed throughout your muscle mass. Often the shoulders will be overlooked because the trainer thinks that they will automatically be affected from the other exercises. The shoulders are actually the most moveable joints in the body. This makes them very unstable if the muscles, ligaments, and tendons surrounding them are not strengthened. Since your shoulders are involved in the many daily movements that you make with your upper body, it is important to make sure that they have as much attention during your exercise as the rest of your body. What You Should Take Away from This Book When the shoulders are in top shape subsequently so are all areas that are attached to them instead of the other way around. Anyone who has ever suffered from a shoulder injury knows just how important this part of the arm and upper body is. However, with these exercises you will not end up with widely disproportionately shoulder muscles either. Instead you will use the weight training contained within to expand on the strength and size of your shoulders while simultaneously keeping them even with the rest of your body's size.

What Is the Importance of Using Weight Training on Your Arm Muscles? Weight training is essential for one purpose - to increase your muscle mass. It is important to participate in rounded workout plans when weight training - especially when focusing on one area of the body such as the arms. If you give too much attention to one area of the arm or only use one or two main weight lifting techniques, this can make your arm disproportional.

Each part of the arm requires specific exercises that are going to make sure they are given enough work to benefit.

Download or read book The Big Chest Book written by Bob Hoffman and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The man with a big chest almost without exception is superhealthy, usually healthy in proportion to the size of his chest. There are exceptions to all rules, but the man with the biggest chest should be, and most often is, healthiest because of the size of his chest; while the man with just big arms or broad shoulders is not necessarily healthy on account of them, but usually is healthy because the exercises which made possible his development have built a big chest and unusual internal strength too. As we will consider farther on in the chapters on anatomy, the upper chest contains a large part, a highly important part, of the vital organs—the heart and the lungs, in particular; and in the lower part of the chest, the stomach, liver, kidneys and spleen, as well as many important glands. When a man possesses a large, roomy chest box, there is plenty of space for these organs to develop, to increase in size, with a simultaneous increase in internal .strength and vigor." - Bob Hoffman
