If you want to build a bigger chest, you need to focus on chest building tips that you can apply to any chest exercise, that are quick to learn, and that you can implement on your first rep. This is where the Chest Master Tip comes in. The Chest Master Tip is a simple cue that is easy to learn and can be applied to every chest exercise you do, whether it be bench press, push-ups, dips, cable crossovers, and anything else. The key to the Chest Master Tip is that it can be applied to any exercise, can be done right away, and requires no additional equipment. This Chest Master Tip is simple: don’t shrug your shoulders. It’s common to have a subconscious tendency to shrug your shoulders and traps when performing chest exercises. You might think that this doesn’t affect your chest workouts, but that’s where you’re wrong. Not only does the Chest Master Tip help with stability in every chest exercise you do, but it ensures that your pecs are engaged more. When you shrug your shoulders, the front deltoid is activated more than it should be, meaning that the extra work that the chest could be doing is taken over by the shoulders. If you’re looking for a bigger chest, you need to make sure that your chest is activated as much as possible in every chest exercise you perform in your workouts. You can achieve this with the master tip of not shrugging your shoulders.
