Lebert EQUALIZER™ Chest press / pushup and Flye in one!

What I really love about the EQ chest press is;
1. Puts wrists in neutral alignment
2. Gripping the EQ activates the scapula
3. Nice stretch (go deeper into push-up) providing you don't have any biomechanical limitations
4. You can SQUEEZE the bars together all the way up and at the top. This keeps the pressure on the working muscles- the chest. Takes the front delts and triceps out of the equation just a bit and focuses on what the chest press and flye combo are for- the chest!

Make sure to pause at the bottom so no bounce at all. This way the muscles- not the bounce- are going to do the work. make sure to think and feel the chest muscles coming together (really the push-up is the result of a pulling motion- the pecs pulling the arms towards center) and at the top make sure not to rest on locked out arms- rather continue to squeeze (isometrically) at the top for a second or two and them lower slowly.

Now perform 1 set of 10 reps with no bounce at the bottom or rest at the top. Not 10 sets of 1 rep like many people make the mistake of doing.
