Gymstick Chest Press Low

Video coming soon...

The gymstick Chest press low workout is designed to primarily engage the Chest muscles.

By using the gymstick, the workout targets the pectoralis major and minor, enhancing their strength and definition.

The gymstick’s resistance bands provide a controlled and challenging resistance throughout the exercise, maximizing Chest activation.

While the workout may also engage auxiliary muscles like the triceps and shoulders, its focus remains on the Chest.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding the gymstick horizontally in front of your chest with an overhand grip.
Engage your core and keep your back straight throughout the exercise.
Bend your elbows and lower the gymstick towards your chest while maintaining control.
Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement, feeling the stretch in your chest muscles.
Push the gymstick away from your chest, extending your arms fully but without locking your elbows.
Exhale as you push the gymstick away, focusing on contracting your chest muscles.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Position yourself on a flat bench, feet firmly planted on the ground, and hold the gymstick with an overhand grip, hands shoulder-width apart. This grip width will help you target your chest muscles effectively.
Engage your core muscles by drawing your navel towards your spine, maintaining a stable and strong base throughout the exercise. This will not only protect your lower back but also enhance the activation of your chest muscles.
As you lower the gymstick towards your chest, focus on keeping your elbows at a 45-degree angle to your body. This angle optimizes chest muscle engagement and minimizes strain on your shoulders.
Exhale as you push the gymstick away from your chest, fully extending your arms. Visualize pushing through the resistance, feeling your chest muscles contract and work hard to move the gymstick. This mind-muscle connection is crucial for maximizing your chest activation.
To challenge your chest muscles further, try slowing down the tempo of the exercise. Take a full 2-3 seconds to lower the gymstick towards your chest, and then another 2-3 seconds to push it away. This controlled movement will intensify the muscle engagement and help you build strength and endurance in your chest.
