Change It Up

Chest Workout This Week 

During the past two years I have been constantly changing the exercises I preform for the particular muscle group I'm working whether it be chest, back, legs or shoulders the concept still stays the same. The point is to not stay too consistent as this could hinder the growth process but to change it up every week to shock your muscles which in turn will stimulate growth. Some things you may consider applying to your workouts are things like drop sets, increases rep ranges and lowering rep ranges. I have decided to post my chest routine from this week; hopefully you will incorporate this into your next chest workout.
