If you’re a skinny guy and want to gain muscle weight, all the weight lifting in the world isn’t going to make you bigger unless it’s combined with a muscle gaining diet plan. You’re going to need to increase the amount of food you’re eating every day. For starters, increase the amount of calories you take in every day by 500.

This dumbbell chest workout is designed to work the upper chest, the lower chest, and the inner chest. The reason to use dumbbells over free weight bars and ellipticals is that it allows for a greater range of motion, and to control this motion you use a greater range of muscle groups. This is a more efficient way of building muscle. Also, because you have a dumbbell in each hand, the left and right sides of your body are forced to work equally. This will produce a balanced and proportionate look to the muscles.

This notion that more is better is a very pervasive thought in the bodybuilding world. The icon of bodybuilding, Arnold Schwarzenegger did upwards of 30 sets per body part. He would pyramid down five to six sets per exercise. I remember reading about the top bodybuilders doing double split routines. They would work out in the morning, and then, come back for an afternoon session.

“Drop and give me fifty, Burrese, you do one hundred.” I still remember those days as a student in the 2nd Infantry Division Scout Sniper School fondly. Funny how time makes hardships seem less tough, and you can look back, clouded with nostalgia, and forget the pain you endured. Actually, the pushups I performed during sniper school were a small amount of the pushups I performed while in the military. From basic training until I got out, pushups and their variations were used extensively during the Army’s physical training sessions. I’m no longer in the military, but I’m still doing them, and if you want a great exercise that doesn’t take any equipment and that you can do anywhere, I recommend you do them too.
