Hey everybody,
Are you someone who does bench press all the time in the gym?
I’ve got news for you:Â there are far better ways to strengthen your pecs and improve your physique than bench press.
Sure, you’ll notice some pec growth if you do bench press for long enough, but you what you won’t notice is the slow, but successive damage to your rotator cuff and biceps tendons.
Unfortunately, most people in the gym do not realize that their pecs attach to their upper arm bones (humerus). This means that repeated tightening (i.e. contraction) of their pecs results in pulling the humerus forward. Over time, this forces the supraspinatus muscle (part of the rotator cuff) to overwork, constantly pulling the humerus back into position.
It’s very hard to balance pecs and lats when you do bench press. It’s not as straight-forward as you’d think.
That’s why I’ve put together a calculated, results-oriented exercise program that will keep your body guessing for an entire year if you let it:
