The Secret to Split Chest Workout – Part 1

.

OK, let’s shock the upper pec with the Weider Rest-Pause Principle.

Using 85-90 percent of your max, do 2-3 reps on a very low angled Incline Press and put the weight down. Take 3 - 5 quick breaths.

Then do 2-3 more, rest, 2-3 more and rest for a total of 3-4 rest-pauses.
The short rest-pauses allow enough time for ATP to be resynthesized and permit further reps with the heavy weight.

Heavy lower pec training will be done in the next session while allowing the upper pec to fully recover.
