7 Hardcore Chest Exercises for the Advanced Lifter
Be prepared to bring it with these extreme pec-thrashers.
7 of 8 Weighted Dips .
Bodybuilding O.G. trainer to the stars, Vince Gironda, claims that dips are the most effective chest exercise and upper-body developer, period! Other famous trainers and physique athletes refer to dips as the upper body squat.
Dips are a compound movement that build the entire upper body but with the right technique some additional overload can be allocated to the chest.
To maximize chest overload, perform dips with a slight forward lean and the elbows flared out. Using an upright posture will emphasize the triceps to a greater degree. If you are able, add additional weight to your bodyweight. Dips allow more weight to be handled than any other upper-body exercise, including the bench press.
