Inner Chest Workout – 3 EXERCISES TO BUILD INSIDE PECTORALS FOR THAT SCULPTURE INSIDE PECTORAL LOOK
The chest muscles are some of the most worked muscles by almost every weight trainer in any gym in the world. Along with the biceps, shoulders, and abs, the pectoral muscles are the most popular muscle group to develop, from the first day you step foot in a gym.
, which is that big muscle in the front of the chest and the one that gives the chest its shape. That is the muscle that all trainers work on when developing their breasts. But to sculpt it correctly, it must be worked from several angles.
While most trainers are aware of having to work on the upper and lower pecs, many leave out the inner pecs. That is an error. The internal pecs are the final touch, the icing on the cake. Inner pecs give the entire chest that sculpted look many trainers seek.
So here are three exercises you can do to work your inner pecs.
- Dumbbell flies – lie on your back on an exercise bench with your arms extended and the elbows slightly bent. With a large, round motion, bring both dumbbells together at the midpoint above your chest. Make sure you contract your pecs as much as you can with the movement. Hold for a second, slowly return. Do 3-4 sets of 8-10 repetitions. You can extend this exercise by doing supersets with different bench positions (flat, inclined, and declined).
- CABLE CROSSOVER: Requires a large machine with two cable stations. Any self-respecting gym will have one of those. Stand with one foot forward and your hands gripping the cable handles above you. Stand so the cables are slightly in front of you and bend your body slightly so that your pecs are extended. Being the cable down and around the waist level. Again, make sure you get a good contraction in your pecs as you complete the movement. Hold for a second, slowly return. Do 3-4 sets of 8-10 repetitions.
- Close-Grip Barbell Bench Press – This is a lot like the basic flat bench press that everyone has to pay for. Only this time, do the hand presses Holding the bar at its midpoint: your hands should be touching each other. That will shift the exercise towards your inner pecs. Do 3-4 sets of 8-10 repetitions.
So if building pecs is one of your main goals in the gym, it is for most, you shouldn’t forget about building inner pecs.
