Abs Diet: Chest Muscle-Building  

Geometry students and pool hustlers aren't the only ones who benefit from understanding sharp angles.

 

You can, too, by working your chest at different angles--with virtually no rest between sets, says Michael Mejia, C.S.C.S., a trainer in New York City. The benefit of doing these "angled drop sets" is that by working from the hardest to the easiest press positions, you'll stimulate more muscle fibers in your chest in about half the time. To start, do a set of incline presses with a weight that will fatigue you after eight to 10 repetitions. Rest for 10 seconds, drop the angle of the bench, and do a flat press with the same weight. Do as many repetitions as possible--usually three to five more than on the incline. Rest for 10 seconds, then do as many decline presses as you can. Rest for 2 minutes and repeat.
