Supreme Guide To A Superhero Chest - Building Muscle Mass

By Emmanuel Palmer

A big chest doesn't have to be impossible. It doesn't matter if you've always been the frailest little guy in the litter-you too can have a superman torso by building muscle mass. This article will show how you too can build chest muscles effectively with discipline and the right tools.

What do you need to do? First of all you have to increase the calories in your diet starting yesterday. Your daily calorie allowance should be around 3,000 to 6,000 calories derived from healthy sources like chicken and fish. Your goal is to gain a lot of weight so you can then convert this to the big, bulging muscles you want to have. Indulge in sweets and junk food once in a while but generally stay within the neighborhood of lean meat and carbohydrates.

If you are on your way to building muscle mass, your calorie ratio should be as follows: 50% carbohydrates, 30% protein and 20% fat. Keep in mind that a gram of fat is equivalent to nine calories while a gram of both protein and carbohydrates are equivalent to four calories.

As soon as you have your food plan in, let us concentrate on the next part of getting a great chest which is the appropriate workout regimen for you. Always start your training with thorough stretching and a sufficient warm up to get the blood flowing to the rest of your body. This prepares it for exercise, even optimizes the condition of your body so it will be prepared for the incoming barrage of physical pain and soreness.

If you are a beginner, start with higher repetitions and lower weights. An example of a program you can use is this: 3 sets, 12 reps of bench press using 40 lbs; 3 sets, 12 reps of dumbbell flyes using 10 lbs; and 3 sets, 12 reps of dumbbell pullovers using 20 lbs. In a few weeks, add to your program by incorporating: 3 sets, 12 reps of incline bench press using 30 lbs; and 3 sets, 12 reps decline bench press using 20 lbs. Keep track of your improvement. Eventually you need to lift higher weight loads and lower your reps.

Keep your body challenged to perform its best by altering your workout program every few weeks. Train your chest muscles using different angles (flat, incline, decline) to give it a better burn. Dumbbell flyes isolate the pecs effectively so always have a variation of this in your routine.

Take notice that you do not under train certain areas even if your main goal is to build chest muscles. You haven't seen a professional bodybuilder walking around in skinny legs now have you? Set aside a couple of days concentrating on working out your other muscle groups.

Concentrate on building muscle mass, have a healthy diet and perform the exercises in the right form and position-you will soon achieve that wide, muscled chest everybody wants. One last thing you should never forget-- enjoy! A great workout is a rewarding experience for those who keep on until they see the results. Work hard and don't give up, you won't regret it. - 17274
