Isometric Chest Squeezes

Steps

1. 1

   Set up

   While either seating or standing, bend your arms at a 90-degree angle and place the palms of your hands together in front of your chest. Tip: Your hands should be open with the palms together and fingers facing forward (perpendicular to your torso).

2. 2

   Perform the movement

   Push both hands against each other as you contract your chest. Start with slow tension and increase slowly. Keep breathing normally as you execute this contraction. Hold for the recommended number of seconds. Now release the tension slowly.

3. 3

   Finish the set

   Rest for the recommended amount of time and repeat.
