Scott Mathison's Ultimate Moves to Make your Pecs Pop
This
three-move workout will absolutely light up your chest, with very
little equipment needed. Power and strength, pumps, and the seriously
good kind of soreness? Check, check, and check.
Chest day is too short to spend it waiting for someone
else to move off of your favorite bench press station or a machine—and
then hopefully wipe it down afterward. Cellucor athlete Scott Mathison knows this. It's one reason why he's
constantly scouting—and creating—movements that maximally hit the big
muscle groups with minimum equipment needed. Mathison's recipe for a solid, short, and serious chest workout is one that any lifter could learn from: Step 1. Start with a big, powerful movement to activate and strengthen every muscle fiber in the chest. Step 2. Wring the life out of those fibers with a couple of solid accessories: one for the upper chest, one for the lower. No, you don't need 20 sets on chest day to do this! Just 12 targeted,
intense sets will make it happen. And what's even better, all you need
is a single pair of weights and a decline bench. Pretty sure you can
manage that. You can work any of these movements into your regularly scheduled
chest day, but a better approach is to try the three in a series and
make that your entire chest day for a few weeks. Yes, it'll probably be
quicker than what you're doing now. But it'll also be every bit as good,
and the first time around, make you every bit as sore.
1. For Whole-Chest Power and Strength: Falling Knee Push-Up
Mathison is known for his high-flying 360 push-ups, falling push-ups,
and other bodyweight feats. But you can't even sniff at, say, a
superman push-up until you're a seasoned vet at explosive upper-body
work like this falling knee push-up.
But aside from the show-off moves you can maybe do someday, if you
want to show off pecs that can truly pop at a moment's notice—and not
after 15 minutes of pumping them up like a flat bike tire—you need
push-ups like this in your arsenal. Why it works: Nothing turns on your fast-twitch,
type-II muscle fibers as effectively as explosive power training. It
trains your muscles to generate maximum force out of each rep, helping
boost your strength ceiling. And lucky you, these are also the muscle
fibers with the greatest potential for growth. Falling knee push-ups move your chest muscles through a significant
range of motion, with plenty of intensity, but without the risk of
dropping a barbell on your grill or jacking up your shoulder by trying
to bench press as quickly as possible. Yes, ending up face-down on the
ground is a possibility, but that's why you should cut each set right
when the reps start slowing down. Scott's tips:
Really push hard and explode off the floor. Yes, this will carry over to your bench!
Really emphasize the negative on the way down. Let your chest touch and lightly break your "fall."
If you are doing this on hard ground, use a pad for your knees!
The perfect dose: Build up to 4 sets of 15 reps,
with a solid 2-3-minute rest between each set. But seriously: Stop each
set while you're still moving fast. And if you can't do even one rep—no
shame there—you have options. Try doing them to a stable step or low
bench, or with a band looped around your torso from an overhead pull-up
bar.
2. For the Upper Chest: Reverse-Grip Push-Up
You're done with the power, now it's time to grind. Sure, you could
hit the bench or dumbbells, but after seriously taxing your chest with
your first move, you're in a perfect position to get maximum benefit out
of a movement that may seem too easy otherwise—like push-ups.
But you're not just doing any push-up here. Scott recommends you turn
your hands around and try them with a reverse-grip. Yes, it'll take
some getting used to, but the payoff is worth it.
Why it works: Bodybuilders have been saying for
years that reverse-grip presses are exceptional for targeting the upper
chest. A Canadian study from 2005 backed it up, determining that a
reverse-grip bench press hits the clavicular (upper) portion of the pecs
30 percent more than a flat bench does.[1] Compare that with the
incline bench press, which a number of studies have shown doesn't
increase clavicular activation at all—or just by a measly few percentage
points.[2] The problem with the reverse-grip bench, of course, is that it just
feels sketchy as hell with any significant weight. These feel strong,
and after a solid 4 sets, you'll be a believer. Oh, and they absolutely
destroy the triceps, too. Scott's Tips:
Stretch your wrists prior to this exercise to help you get as close to a true reverse-facing grip.
Keep your elbows close to you body throughout the rep to keep form strict and hammer the triceps.
Flex the chest at the top of each rep. After 15-20 reps, you should feel these burning like crazy.
After the first two moves, you're probably all pressed out. So it's
time to focus on the stretch and shred with Scott's combo move of
choice, the decline dumbbell fly and crunch.
Why it works: The decline fly mimics the high-to-low
cable cross-over, a classic movement to work the pecs while cutting out
the shoulders almost entirely. Why the crunch? For one, it forces you to pause and squeeze the
dumbbells together for a solid second or two on each rep. But
contracting your abs hard, like you have to do in order to do a weighted
decline crunch, is also a great way to make every other muscle in your
upper body co-contract harder along with them. And finally, because abs. You needed to work them anyway, didn't you?
And if you've tried any of Scott's other workouts on Bodybuilding.com,
you know they tend to make the abs work seriously hard, even if they
aren't pure "abs" workouts. Scott's tips:
Try to use your chest as much as possible for each rep, not your arms. Have to use light weights? Do it.
Pause and squeeze your chest muscles together at the top of each rep. Doing these from a decline can help to "feel" this.
If your ab endurance is keeping you from being able to adequately
work your chest, split the moves up. Do flies, then abs. Or if
you struggle with the chest fly, just do the overhead dumbbell crunch to
train abs. It'll hit your shoulders and chest, too.

Events promoting vaccination called off in Nevada after harassing comments were posted on social media
A non-profit that promotes vaccinations in Nevada canceled two events
after anti-vaxxers posted harassing comments against the host venues on
social media. Immunize Nevada scheduled
two fundraising breakfasts in December to honor health care employees
who help with vaccinations. Online harassment and concerns of protesters
coming to the events drove the organization to cancel the Reno and Las
Vegas events.”We looked at the whole picture and because we knew that
these events were to be celebrations in honor of immunization champions
in Nevada, we didn’t want there to be any risk,” Executive Director
Heidi Parker of Immunize Nevada told CNN on Monday.There has been an
“increase in harassment and anti-vax extremist behavior,” Parker said.
She cited anti-vaccination supporters speaking up at a meeting of Nevada’s legislative health care committee, which she spoke at on December 11. And on the other side of the world, an alleged anti-vaxxer in Samoa was cited for “incitement against the government vaccination order” after a measles outbreak.
FDA plagued by lack of training and oversight during opioid crisis, report says
A newly released report says the Food and Drug Administration may have
failed to set strict enough standards and follow-through for training
doctors about the risks associated with opioids. Researchers say lack of
oversight and training problems happened while the opioid crisis
killed tens of thousands of people a year. The rules were part of
what’s called a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, or REMS, which
required manufacturers of long-acting and addictive opioids like
OxyContin to pay for training for doctors prescribing the drugs, and to
monitor and report back on how well that training was working. But in
the study published in JAMA Internal Medicine,
researchers at Johns Hopkins University found that didn’t happen. The
report said long-acting or “extended-release” opioids such as oxycodone
and morphine “were associated with greater risk of addiction,
unintentional overdose and death than their immediate-release
counterparts.” So in 2012, the FDA set up rules requiring painkiller
manufacturers to deliver “continuing education” to doctors and “develop
medication guides to inform patients about risks” as well as monitor and
report on “patient access to drugs and safety.”
