Weightlifting exercise for Chest

For a great chest workout, you want to work the upper, middle, and lower pectoral muscles. I really suggest flyes as the best way to work your chest muscles.

  • Peck Deck Flyes (on machine)
  • Incline Dumbbell Flyes
  • Incline Bench Press
  • Decline Dumbbell Flyes


  • Weightlifting exercises Back

    We need to balance our chest by working out our lats. Lats are usually ignored by many novice strength trainers, which leads to injury. Make sure to balance out your body by paying special attention to your lats.

  • Close-grip Pull-downs
  • Seated Cable Rows (wide grip)
  • Seated Rows (close grip)
  • Lay Pulldowns (wide grip)


  • You could also perform pull-ups as part of your back routine. Remember on your back exercise to concentrate on squeezing your shoulder blades together.

    Weight training program for Legs

    When it comes to weightlifting exercises, I find that legs are usually never undertrained. Rather most people overtrain their legs. It’s not too hard, we use them every day. You do not need to do a dozen exercises to get a great workout.

  • Full Squats (smith machine or body master machine)
  • Leg Extensions (toes pointed out for inner quads)
  • Leg Press (partial reps with no break at top or bottom)
  • Leg Extensions (toes pointed straight for outer quads)
  • Leg Curls
  • Calve Raises


  • Weight training for Arms

    Like your legs, your arms are very easy to over-train during weightlifting exercises. The biceps, tricep, and shoulders are supporting muscle for a lot of other exercises. It's not a bad idea to combine back and biceps of chest and triceps to reduce over training. If not, make sure to give enough rest days so your muscles can recoup.

    Shoulders

  • Shoulder Press
  • Low Pulley Front Raises
  • Side Lateral Raises
  • Rear Delts
  • Shoulder Shrugs
  • Standing Barbell Rows


  • Triceps

  • Seated Pulley Tricep Extensions
  • Tricep Pushdown (rope handle)
  • Tricep Extensions


  • We want to make sure we work all three heads of the tricep.

    Biceps

  • Preacher Curls (partial reps keeping range in middle)
  • Curls on flex machine
  • Lying Pulley Curls (partial reps keeping range to top half)


  • Exercises for Abdominals
    Abdominals do not really require weighted exercises to build them. They are developed more on volume and reps than on weight. The following exercises are organized from easiest to hardest.

    Lower Abdominals

  • Lying Leg Raises
  • Reverse Crunches
  • Vertical lying Thrusts
  • Hanging Knee Raises
  • Hanging Leg Raises


  • Upper Abdominals

  • Crunches
  • 1/4 Sit-ups
  • Cross-knee Crunches
  • Pull-down Crunches (on pulley)
