How to Build an Excellent Chest Exercise Routine

If you ask a bodybuilder what part of his body he wants to work on most, chances are he's going to say his chest. The chest, or the pectoralis minor and major, is often the hardest muscle for beginner bodybuilders to get a handle on.

Arm workouts are pretty easy, and so are ab workouts, but the chest and back really elude results it seems. Here are quick tip that you can use to when you want to craft an intensive chest exercise routine. Your routine shouldn't be limited to this exercise of course, but they will make sure you target that chest as much as possible.

Incline bench press – the flat bench press is good for your chest, but it can also tear out your shoulders and elbows fairly easily. Unfortunately, this seems to be the go to workout for anyone who's new in the gym, but I personally recommend you stay away from it. Inclining the bench will let you target your chest without putting as much strain on your shoulders and elbows.

You can't build a strong chest if your muscles are torn, so keep this in mind next time you head out to the gym, and be safe.
