Watch: Charles’ Favorite Chest Workout
Hit play. Keep tension. Try not to make the “gym face” in public.

Same gear, same setup, less guesswork.
Quick tips to make it hit harder
- Slow the eccentric: 2–3 seconds down = more chest, less momentum.
- Lock the ribcage: brace your core so your shoulders don’t steal the rep.
- Adjust tension fast: step out (harder) / step in (easier) instead of muscling through sloppy reps.
- Feel > ego: if you’re shrugging, it’s too heavy or too rushed.
FAQ
Is this beginner-friendly?
Yes—if you start with lighter resistance and prioritize form. For setup basics, use Getting Started.
How often should I do this chest workout?
1–2x/week works well for most people. If you’re also doing full-body workouts, slot this in as an “upper push” day.
What if I feel it more in my shoulders than chest?
Usually that’s range + angle + speed. Reduce load, slow down, keep shoulders “down and back,” and stop short of painful depth.
