How to Train Your Pecs With the Machine Chest Press
Getting Started
Engage your core muscles before you begin any movement. This will help protect your spine and ensure that all of the force generated by the exercise is directed towards building muscle in your chest area.
Finish Strong
Grasp the handles firmly with both hands and push them away from you until they are fully extended but not locked out at the elbows or shoulders. Keep your elbows tucked close to your body throughout this motion.
As you bring the handles back towards you, focus on squeezing your chest muscles together as if you were doing a regular push-up motion and pause briefly when they are about halfway back towards their starting position before returning them all the way back in again for one full rep.
Do not use momentum or jerky movements when performing this exercise as this can lead to injury or strain on other muscles in addition to those being worked in this exercise. Take it slow, focus on form, and keep challenging yourself by increasing weight or reps as necessary for best results!
Final Thoughts
By following these steps, you can effectively train your pecs with a machine chest press without putting yourself at risk of injury! With consistency and dedication, you’ll be able to see results in no time!
