Quick Tip

One of the best ways to stop snack attacks is by chewing sugar free chewing gum. Try aiming for a mint taste as this will also help keep you mentally focused and not thinking about snacking on food.

Why Sushi?

If you are looking for a good low calorie dining option, try going out for sushi. Not only is sushi low calorie, it is tasty and a great source of protein too.

We Love Seafood!

Great news for Seafood lovers, eating crab, shrimp, lobster and calamari is an excellent source or protein that is relatively low in calorie. The key is to try avoid the melted butter or sauce that is usually served with these delicious seafood treats.

Chest workout for Muscle Gain

Are you at the gym, working out every day, but can’t seem to get any growth in your chest? Many men suffer from this problem, no matter how much they work out; no matter the workout routine they follow they cannot develop a muscular chest. The good news is with the proper chest workout and diet plan, you can build an Arnold like chest that looks like it was sculpted out of ancient Greece.

One of the main things that you need to accept when trying to build a huge chest is that you will need to lift heavy and include drop sets to get the results you want. When performing a drop set make sure the first part of the drop set includes 7 reps at a higher weight, then drop some weight of the bar and perform till failure, repeat the dropping of the weight until you only are pressing the bar and press the bar until failure. You will want to take 90 seconds between sets to give your muscles the right amount of time to recover as this is one hard set that is going to burn (although it is a good burn). Try completing 3 sets of each chest exercise and make sure to drink plenty of water during this workout as you are going to sweat pushing that weight around.


So here is the Muscle Gain Chest Workout:

Exercise #1 – Flat Barbell Bench – 3 Sets of drop sets till failure
Exercise #2 – Incline Barbell Bench - 3 Sets of drop sets till failure
Exercise #3 – Decline Barbell Bench - 3 Sets of drop sets till failure
Exercise #4 – Flat Dumbbell Flyes - 3 Sets of drop sets till failure
Exercise #5 – Weighted Dips - 3 Sets of drop sets till failure
Exercise #6 – Cable Crossover - 3 Sets of drop sets till failure

This is a serious chest workout which you should only do once every 5 days in order to get the appropriate time to recover. Remember to eat a protein rich post workout meal to help recovery and growth. A good post workout meal is a protein shake with a banana right after the workout, and 1 hour after taking this meal have another meal of Chicken breast, whole grain rice and broccoli. This will ensure you are getting the nutrients you need to build a huge chest. Always remember to drink plenty of water as staying hydrated will better use the protein you are eating.

A rule of thumb when performing these exercises is to practice proper weight lifting form and perform each rep in a slow and controlled manner.
You will need to get a minimum of 8 hours sleep to properly recover as well; it is vital as during sleep your body releases hormones that help your muscles grow and recover.

Remember that training is only half of the battle; you will need to follow a proper diet plan in order to get the nutrients needed to gain quality muscle. Aim to eat 1 gram of protein per kilogram of body weight and try eating 6 smaller meals daily, eating ever 2.5 to 3 hours.

Try this chest workout for 6 weeks, taking a break every 6 weeks for 2 months. Follow this workout and you will see serious muscle gains in your chest. Now go train!
