Upper Chest is lacking? DO THIS!

Alright so if you want a bigger upper chest, instead of doing your low to high flys with the attachments all the way down, try bringing over a bench and lifting the attachments up so that the resistance is aligned with the orientation of the fibers in the clavicular head of your chest, meaning that you can utilize an arm path similar to the angle of the upper chest fibers to train them in their largest range of motion with the most intent possible.

I hope that helps and subscribe for more lifting tips! #Gym #Shorts

Learned this exercise from Ryan Jewers, if you're interested in more science based content, definitely check him out!! (links below)


Looking to get protein powder, creatine, or any other supplements?

Bold of you to assume a bench and a cable machine is free

[zerodood]

The set up is kind of a pain in the ass though. Especially considering how occupied both those equipment are.

too early for any interesting comments so here's an encouraging one instead. appreciate your content man

[RishabhSharma]

I remember a few months ago, there were lots of hate comments on your short videos, calling you amateur, wrong etc.
I'm so happy to see the amount of love you're getting now. Well deserved.

Thanks for the tips max, u rlly helping with these gains brah

Cable exercises with any attachments for any body part is dope af! You can really feel the mind muscle connection and you can get huge ROM.

This really works better for me. I feel there is more contraction and less range of motion for a tighter and more refined squeeze. Seen immediate result!!!! Thanks

Max be helping a lot of people mann. Keep up the great work, I love your contenttt dude

Flyes are chest isolation. The second one you show is a press, which also trains the triceps. Therefore more of a compund movement. Worth pointing out I think.

[DrPhoenyx]

If you cant do this, a cable press around is arguably better, targets shortened position of upper chest and works all the way around it, try it its amazin

[XhinjYT]

I’ve noticed sitting down on any low to high fly variation is just better

[antonioespitiabuelvas]

The best advice that worked for me to full the upper chest and give me a lot better chest was the incline dumbbell press, using weights that allow me to feel the fibers working, so don't use a lot of weight, instead use dumbbells to reach 10+ reps

You can also just do a low to high cable fly with the attachment around knee height instead of in its lowest position.

Thanks man, this is a game changer. Setting up is a struggle through hahaha

[blazingangel]

I found that doing my flies single arm, standing, with a low to high angle worked best for my upper chest. Set the cable so your arm at the bottom makes a 30ish degree angle from your torso, then pull up and across your body until you feel the contraction in your upper pec.

You're so awesome Max 👍 thanks so much

[romainedewunderage]

This looks fascinating. U really give us the correct method perfect

[claybowman]

If you can’t bench 2 plates yet probably don’t worry about these, your upper chest will be significantly bigger by then too. a 135 ohp is a good goal too even tho it doesn’t use the upper chest directly.

Do incline bench press on a smith machine and keep progressing every single week for a long time.
