I am pretty flat chested as it is, so I didn't really want to lose any more boob!
However as we all know, if you are training once muscle group and not the other you will become unbalanced... and so the chest training began!
My favourite is the bench press, there are 3 ways to do the bench press - flat, incline and decline. Today we are looking at flat.
Bench press can be done with 3 different types of equipment as well - dumbells, bar or with the smith machine. For beginners or people who don't have someone to spot them start light, either with dumbells or just the bar on the smith machine, this will help with building the muscles but also stability and give you the confidence when doing this exercise.
As you begin the exercise with the weights above your head inhale and bring the weights down to your chest, if you are working with a bar bring the bar to your chest, and exhale when bringing the weight back up.
Repeat for 8-10 reps 3 sets and add weight if you feel confident to do so.
