[ZAAAN124]

Hi hi! Have you considered the Fat Blast Furnace (do a search on google)? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my work buddy burned lots of stubborn fat.

[MemoryLaneCinema]

steroid fucked up his voice

[TheTobyKing]

ok. so im new to workin out. at home i have dumbbells and a big bouncy ball thing nothing else. what excersises could i use to build up my pecs? cuz i hav nooo idea where to start.

[emchowdhury]

Good tips!!!!!!

[bbjoe923]

hi where can i find that 13 week program you mentioned at the start? thanks!

[BMS5621]

his voice just like somalian pirate ! ar ar !

[BDPGT]

Which website did he say to go to?

[ediot6969]

It's. Not to high if ur doing shoulders with chest and tris. I start with the decline the. Go flat then move up higher for each set then back down.

[H3ArTLeSsJeRk]

excuse me while i go sandpaper my throat

[nauticabinx]

I thought I wasnt going to learn anything by watching this and I almost didnt but Im glad I did. I learned that the incline I use is to high. Thanks.

[BulldogsFever]

Easiest thing without equipment are push ups on your fist (with towel or something under because they can hurt.) At the most half a foot apart. Works wonders on the inner chest. Especially mixed with incline pushups.

[JustBetter10]

wow...thank you. Now that I think about it...I HAVE been putting the bench at too great of an angle.

[oFUZiONv2]

Hahahaa, holy shit it's marcus fenix!

[alexkourti1]

marge simpson ?

[WhoShitnTheCirclePit]

THANK YOU

[bloodkilla69er]

wtf has he been smoking?

[glenndaniel1]

Some researches show that you build the same amount on upper chest by doing regular bench as in incline, and that the only difference is that by doing incline you loose much of the build you would get on the other parts of the chest...

And I've also heard that decline is even more effective than both regular and incline... feels right when lifting decline that the whole chest is working (more than when incline)

Thanks for any (serious) comments

[jfairley83]

He sounds like Scrooge.

[MrBastageicehole]

[ThelegendTMC]

He talks like that because he has toned his muscle in his throat to the maximum.

[teenfitness2013]

[minnesotajack]

I go until my muscles literally fail... so.. I use two bells instead of a bar.

[darkgaiasonic]

Im doin this for sophmore year :D

[youngfreeze121]

yeah i made homemade weights they weigh ruffly around 40 pounds and its just 4 1.5 bottles of water tied to a bar 4 on each side and it gets the chest working after about 5 reps of 10 and i use a yellow recycle bin just tip it over and its almost flat so i know im working my chest cause it burns like fuck

[ppsocio2]

if you do it at a 180 degree angle instead of wat u said how will it affect you?

[johnstjulien]

Thankyou, that was very imformative bad guy from under seige.

[latinkon3]

[ohhsnap510]

@Wutsyourbeef woah... calm down.. its a joke fruitcake. 

[randir14]

Damn I was wondering why my shoulders always felt worn out when doing incline, I had the seat too high.

[NAZMIFOUIZIL]

Thanks MR Bob Mathews

[MrTheBenBen]

Would this still work if you were just flat on the floor?

[TheHemorageblack]

Extremely helpful this answers many questions about chest development!

[norman5757]

how do I workout my lower pec muscles. I've never felt a burn on that area of my pecs.

[littleai95]

@norman5757 lower pec muscles are developed from decline benchpress witch builds mass and decline fly's which will help bring witdth to you your chest also for lower chest check out doing dips they really help and will give u a burn

[urumixxx]

@norman5757 decline

[SavageSword1]

[dukebielak]

@12Makana

How much dick did he suck to mess up his vocal chords like that?

[20tharon]

@dukebielak i was hoping you or your mom could tell me??

[amazinglazedonut]

@12Makana Apparently you speak from first-hand experience, or should I say first-throat experience.

[willyoustand86]

@amazinglazedonut LMAO, either someones into a bit of deepthroat, or this guy used to be a chick who used too many roids LOL

[20tharon]

@12Makana HAHAHA YEAH YOU WOULD KNOW WOULDN'T YOU!!

[knewok]

0% and you would die haha but 4-5-6% is possible for like olympic swimmers and some other freaks of nature

[hitps101]

Can you build and define your pecs at the same time.

[knewok]

@hitps101 yes. they get bigger with heavier weights and more defined with less weight and more reps, plus do lots of cardio to keep your body fat % down, that way you see every single muscle fibre, giving you that ripped look that everyone wants

[miguemigue127]

its kind of hard if not almost impossible to keep your body fat down to 0 percent

but i guess u mean low

[TheRealDirtyScary]

you would be dead

[xPRxPraaaaaaaaaaxPRx]

u need to have bdy fat or else you would die dumbass, lowest is like 2 percent

[hardbodyrock]

@miguemigue127 the body needs fat!

[lewolfmano]

dear bob matthews, thank you

[TheycallmehQuiet]

Hey Im a freshman in highschool, and despite me being one of the youngest im a descent size but I really wanna get bigger, im 14 and about 155lbs. any tips?

[mastershake1000]

Do you have any fat on you??

[TheycallmehQuiet]

No, im pretty athletic but everyone has fat on them.

[mastershake1000]

Sorry meant large amounts of it.. So you're 155 and 14 and you don't have any injuries?

[TheycallmehQuiet]

yeah

[knewok]

@TheycallmehQuiet deadlifts - pushups - squats - clean and press - sit ups - chinups - bench press and dips - eat lean, which means fish, chicken, and turkey.. drink lots of water.. no pain no gain tho so dont do things half assed.. just dont hurt yourself by over doin it or showing off. start slow.. warm up before lifting heavy. have fun with it and good luck

[TheycallmehQuiet]

thanks man

[weejie]

If u are not fat, I suggest u take creatine as supplement. For performance, take it 1hr b4 ur training, for repair, take it after ur training.

Chest-Dumbell flyes and presses are wonderful! Do barbell occasionally to give a "shock" effect to ur chest muscle as we can usually carry heavier using barbell.

Legs- Do barbell half squats. Do not do full squats for heavy weights. They will damage ur knee.

Overall strength-Do dead lift. U gonna love it man.

Word limit here restrict what I want to say.

[TheycallmehQuiet]

Thanks, youve been a great help, im been trying some other suggestions in the past 2 weeks and im starting to see some small results, Thank you.

[Warsheeper]

the wrong thing here is that half squats are more damaging to the knee than full squats, full squats are great for knee health

[weejie]

Nope. I did say full squats with heavy weights are damaging to knee.

However, light weight full squats are useful in building a stronger joint.

[mamimooz]

flat bench is great cuz that works the whole pectoral muscle

[HappyBirthdaySANTA]

you are the best Personal Trainer Man thanks heaps!!!!!!!

[F0Xhound009]

cool, I was making this mistake, now I know

[Workhard1994]

Thanks a lot. Very good advice

[jrowo]

leave the cigarettes alone...

[vinro1]

that was the first thing that the instructor taught me about training the clavicle head of the pecks. not to set it too high as the anterier delt takes over the load. secondly.... mind muscle connection: ya got to feel the area working and good contractions, if ya cant feel the pressure on the upper pecks more than likely your delts and triceps are taking the load, lower the weight and keep the elbows out wide away from the body.

[Crowenator]

OMFG its real odd todd... his voice sounds just like him...

[iknowsecrets]

the secret is TIME! take your time with right technique, right diet, no too exercise each muscle, good relax time then you'll see what you want but you need TIME

[MrMoe36]

wow i cant believe i found myself on how to build pecs. i feel like some nerd preparing to fight a bully

[JezBernezHarez]

he sounds like a frog, i cant take it seriously

[KillerKongz]

Lol @JezBernezHarez, he actually does sound like one.. reading ur comment made me lol, ; )

[moviedude22]

100% correct!

[tigermancall]

excellent videos

[demanding2bfree]

exactumundo

[okmbhu]

im really glad u went over tht mistake because thats what ive been doiong and wondering why i cudnt build my upper pecs so well. i felt it was becoming a military press. great vid. thnx

[TimeSplitter64]

Another extremely helpful and beneficial video which has saved me alot of time and guess work! Thanks alot

[willieofroanoke]

Actually using a "Swiss" ball (that's just a name for any exercise ball) is a great way to do many "bench" and other exercises with or without dumbells. They are durable and cheap. One imporant thing often over looked, get the correct SIZE exercise ball (depends on your height) read box to learn which size is for you, and keep them inflated to the proper size. Just a couple inches too inflated or under inflated makes a world of difference.

[drfillylip111]

i dont always like someone explaining on how to dp certain exercises with their shirt on. they should keep the shirt off for us to see on their figure

[search4unknown]

How about doing them on a swiss ball? We don't have that kind of stance bench at our gym, so is it possible to just use the swiss ball? You'd be building up on your stabilizers as well.

[bobbob12g]

Ive never wasted my money on gym equipment. Ive always used equipment found in the home for lifting, like boxes filled with books, guitar amplifier, TVs. Ive never spent a penny on equipment like dumbells and benches, to me a its a waste of money. Just use your imagination to use things in your home for weight lifiting. You can get the same results.

[TimeSplitter64]

Fair enough, but a set of dumbells couldnt hut, they arent very expensive if you find some second hand ones...

Youd get better results, and it seems ackward using boxes and books and stuff around the house..but thats your choice

[d4nk1503]

he used to be a smoker thats why

[vorpalspaz]

oscar the grouch

[monkeycudgel]

no he sounds like steve-o

[28monkeyking28]

I've been wanting to develop my pecs. I don't have a bench yet. Should i just get a plain bench or a bench that can hold a barbell and that has the leg "thing" on the other end where u can puts weights on it? OR should i get something with that as well as a bar that u can pull down for your traps? I want a good overall work out. BUt the set with all those looks flimsy. Any recommendations?

[ukatam]

get just a bench that can hold a barbell. those leg things are a waste of time and get in the way. just do squats with the barbell instead

[modelstatue]

At the end of the video, he does that chest workout on the bench. I have tried doing this workout, but I feel like I am working out my triceps and biceps more than my chest because my chest is not sore at all after I finish. What am I doing wrong?

[ukatam]

bench press doesnt involve the biceps.

dont worry about your triceps burning out before your pecs. your triceps will gain strength and you will improve your technique with time. when i started i was pushing up two 15kg dumbbells and i was having the same problem as you, not feeling any burn on the pecs. but now im on 40kg, and feel it, its just a matter of time.

[modelstatue]

Thanks man, u explained it very well, so you're saying if I do it more often, then I will eventually get stronger triceps and that will result in me working out my triceps less and thus focusing on my pecs, right?

[ukatam]

yeah your triceps will get stronger and allow you to put more stress on your pecs. also you could do a set of pec flies using cables or free weights before your set of bench press so that your pecs get a greater burn overall

[michaelheskett6666]

lol me again 3 commet to day!!!! i think body buider look kind gross i just wanna get buff and kick ass lol

[Naruke0]

its not from steroids.....if you listen you can hear that he has some trouble breathing. could be from smoking or could be something else. anyway this is very helpful info :)

[potatoeharry]

ahh sweet i always used to make tht mistake hving the incline too steep wont be doin it now ol thnx

[auws94]

thanks 4 the help

stop smoking though

[savioloks]

haha you are the man!!!!:D

[xxqueenzplayaxx]

u are the man!

[wolfmarl]

his voice sounds like this because of steroid abuse

[bsdanielm]

I really like this vid - this is the 5th time i've watched it and I like it because its correcting something that I've always felt awkward with (in the development of upper chest area).

This guy knows his stuff.

[roblackops]

can som1 gimme some advice please i wana start building up my arm muscles however iv heard that it cant stunt your growth in height os taht true???

[zergling6000]

nope not at all

[skateboardsteve409]

i think most people stop growing at around 21, relax man, good luck i began bodybuilding 3months ish ago, its great sport, cheers..

[blazinhaze4420]

the incline bench in my gym is madd steep i think this is my biggest problem..cuz i have a large lower chest and my middle is quite full, but my upper pec is smalll compared to the rest...i guess i know why now cuz i barely eva do dumbells always barbell..looks like ill be switchin up..

[TheEinstienian]

Incline benching works best because you'll get a fuller looking chest than a flat bench or decline. If you want to look like a Greek God or celebrity like Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey, then do either barbell incline or dumbbell incline benching. I also happen to know and exercise on Matthew McConaughey's workout.

[tisaunde]

I'll try this next chest routine. Looks promising and makes sense. Thanks!

[AndreaMNarciso]

more firm breast for women ;)

[calgreasehair]

how long does it take to get pecs?

[mrloxley1234]
