Anthony Arvanitakis - 2015
    Take a look on Youtube for all kinds of push-up challenges and examine the chest development of the guys doing them. Most of the times it's insignificant, right? Does that mean push-ups are a bad chest builder? Not at all. It's just that most people don't know how to activate their chest muscles properly. As a result, they do numerous reps without ever seeing their chest ever getting muscular. How do you turn your chest muscles “on” in order to get maximum activation and muscle building? You do that by bringing intensity into your push-ups. And intensity is not about reps, it's about how you perform those reps. How to sculpt a Greek God Marble Chest with Push-ups teaches you all the tools you will ever need in order to produce intensity. There are 4 techniques in the book that you can use to increase the intensity of your pushups: Learn how to switch on your chest. That way you make every rep count. Pre-stretch the muscle. Why? A muscle which is fully stretched is maximally activated and can be built faster. Don't lockout on the top. If you do, you will lose muscle tension since your body's weight rests on your joints and bones. Lean your body forward. By doing it, you are lifting even more weight with every rep. You go from lifting 60% of your body to lifting up to 90%, progressively overloading your chest muscles. Implement these 4 techniques today and watch your chest become sculpted like a Greek's God. Don’t hesitate to pick up your copy today by clicking the BUY NOW button at the top of this page! P.S. You will also start noticing better pumps with every chest exercise you perform from now on.
