Exercise Diagrams - Chest
Okay, many of you may've visited this section a bit too frequently - remember, you should be aiming to develop a balanced physique! Training each body part appropriately and evenly will always achieve the best results, no matter what your goal. For ideas on workout plans, please visit the Gym Professor's free sample gym routines.
Below are a list of various chest exercises. The exercise pages will provide basic instruction and detail muscles exercised, what the exercise is for & who the exercise is for. As mentioned on other pages, I suggest that you (or your instructor) have a basic understanding of anatomy, kinesiology in particular. Over time, I'll also include Youtube video's for the more commonly performed gym exercises, to better demonstrate the weight training exercise being performed.
