The main reason for chest muscle asymmetry is people's long-term unilateral exercise habits. For example, most people are accustomed to using their right hand more than their left hand, which leads to developed right chest muscles. Almost everyone has this problem, it's just that it's not obvious. Some people have obvious muscular tones after working out; so, what to do if the chest muscles are asymmetrical? Here, we introduce several methods to correct asymmetrical chest muscles. You can consciously try them during fitness, and the effect is quite good.
1. Lateral push-ups or one-handed push-ups When doing push-ups, the body's center of gravity should be shifted to the side with weaker pectoral muscles, or the body can be raised on one side so that the center of gravity naturally shifts to the side with weaker pectoral muscles for correction; if physical conditions permit, one-handed push-ups can also be used for correction.
2. Parallel bars lateral flexion and extension When doing lateral arm extensions on the parallel bars, as the body descends, the center of gravity of the body shifts to the side with weaker pectoral muscles, and at the same time, stay at the lowest point of descent for 3-5 seconds in the peak contraction state.
3. Supine lateral press or one-handed dumbbell bench press When using a barbell to do bench press, you can put more weight on the side with weaker chest muscles; When using dumbbells to do the bench press, you can do a one-handed dumbbell bench press for correction.
4. Single-arm dumbbell supine arm raise The dumbbell lying arm raise has a good training effect on the chest. You can do this exercise with one hand to correct the asymmetry of the chest muscles.
5. Single-arm side pull Friends who are in the gym can use the weak pectoral muscle on the side to do a single-arm side body pull to correct it. |
