Bodyweight Standing Triple Pec Dec Pulse

Tone your chest anywhere, anytime! This bodyweight exercise uses pulses to sculpt your pecs. Feel the burn with every rep.

Instructions

  1. Starting Position:

    • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.

    • Keep your knees slightly bent.

    • Engage your core muscles to maintain stability.

    • Raise both arms straight up beside your ears, keeping them parallel to each other. Your palms should be facing each other.

  2. Movement:

    • Bend your elbows to lower your arms to shoulder height while keeping your elbows slightly above your wrists. This will create a 'goalpost' position with your arms.

    • Then, pulse your arms forward by squeezing your chest muscles. Make sure to keep your elbows bent and close to your body.

    • Focus on engaging your chest throughout the pulse movement.

    • Perform three small pulses in this position, maintaining control and stability.

  3. Return:

    • After completing the three pulses, return your arms to the starting position by straightening them back up beside your ears.

    4. Repetition:

    • Repeat this movement for a set of 10 to 15 repetitions, ensuring to maintain proper form throughout.

  4. Tips:

    • Keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid raising them towards your ears.

    • Focus on the contraction in your chest muscles during the pulse.

    • Breathe steadily; exhale during the pulse and inhale as you return to the starting position.
