www.LeeHayward.com It’s Lee Hayward here with a complete chest and shoulder weight training workout routine. Hardly a day goes by that I don’t get at least one e-mail from someone asking how they can build a big muscular chest. Well in this video clip I’m going to share one of my all time favourite chest workouts for fast muscle gains. I like to start my chest workouts with a big basic compound power exercise. Usually some form of the bench press. In this video I’m doing the barbell bench press but I’ll sometimes use dumbbells or incline bench presses instead. When doing bench presses make sure to set up properly by expanding your chest, arching your upper back, and pulling your shoulder blades back. This will help to fully activate the chest muscles and place less strain on the shoulder joints. It’s also a good idea to have a spotter with you at all times just in case you need help lifting the barbell off your chest. The next exercise that I like to do is the dumbbell flye. This exercise works the chest in the fully stretched position. I don’t use heavy weights here, but rather I emphasize getting a full stretch in the pecs. I even hold the weights for a second at the bottom position to get a better stretch. You’ll also notice that I only lift the dumbbells about ¾ of the way up. Going all the way up just takes the stress off the chest muscles. In the video I’m doing incline bench flyes. But sometimes I’ll do flat bench flyes, or decline bench flyes to work the chest …

shoulder workout
Check here for updates: hanhchampion.blogspot.com okay so I got lazy to make a part of me talking about it so I’m just going to type out the details here
Its boring to watch me talk anyways. I made this video first because I have shots of me doing shoulders. lol.. I’ll make a diet video soon as I have clips of it. Anyways, this workout should take 45minutes to an hour. The pace is set in the clips. I rest about 30 seconds to a minute after each set. I try to hit 10 to 12 reps per set. I usually do this workout toward the end of the week so the weights are lightened up. I leave the beginning of the workout week for compound movements. Few things to remember: -You don’t have to go as heavy for shoulders as it is a smaller muscle. Its better to pump blood through the correct parts of the shoulders as you’re training them. – If you lift too heavy for shoulder press you will tend to bend your back more and it becomes more of an incline bench press. So try to keep your back more upright. – For shoulder presses with the dumbbells; place the dumbbell as close to your knees as you can. That way it’s easier to kick it up and push the weight upright. -Front raises are for anterior deltoids (front part of your shoulders) -Lateral raises are for the lateral deltoids (middle part of your shoulders) -Rear lateral raises are for the posterior deltoids (rear part of your shoulders) -Remember to warm up good. Push ups/ pull ups and some stretches to get the blood flowing to prevent …
