Yeah I had one with springs many moons ago. Used to risk tearing ya nipples off when it closed. Odd really. It's all back and shoulders. No chest at all. Nice little gadget though. Great vid.
I just wish I knew which body parts are benefited from the individual exercises. I'm going to get a chest expander but I hope it comes with a chart explaining which exercises to do for each body part.
The vast majority of the exercises will primarily work the back muscles with the chest usually being worked out secondarily. When you pull the expander out with your arms stretched in front for example, on the way back in, as your arms come back together, you can tense your pectorals to get a slightly better chest workout.
@xxdonaldqxxx By the way, to get a real idea of exactly what body parts are benefited (if you didn't get a chart with the equipment) google " Altus Athletic :: Back & Chest Expander" and open the pdf file.
I think that this is fantastic, you don`t have to deal with heavy weights, and you can do you`re workout everywhere you want. Thanks for this great fitness-exercise- tipps. I think I buy one of these expanders.
I just bought one, my dad used to do it and has a terrific physic, I'm gonna try it now.
May I ask: how many times a week do you recommend these exercises? or is there any other formula for the frequency. I just did today, my arms are sour, and already cant wait for the next routine :) . I just bookmarked this. Thanks a million!
People keep on telling me that you can't build chest muscles with this but after using this for more than a few months on a regular basis, I have noticed increased muscle mass in my chest, upper back and arms.
whenever i work with chest expander(while pulling on chest) theres a voice like my cartilages on my left shoulder. i also feel it.it doesnt cause to any pain but i dont wanna injure myself. whats it im doing wrong?
Excellent basic instructional video. I do think that the overhead pulldown is one of the top 3 exercises that wasn't demonstrated though. Will post this on may facebook pages and expander section of my website. Thank you for posting this :)
This tool is great. It is shorter than the usual Expanders, so you have a better angle. Also great are the cables in every weight-class. Better than dumbbells.
GREAT!!!

I used a similar device in my youth made with metal springs which were removable. Then i moved on to weights. But that expander really muscled me up.
