Pre Exhaust Your Targeted Muscle Pre Exhaust Your Targeted Muscle
 		Save Tip

This involves switching up your typical workout pattern, which most likely involves switching up your exercises on chest day. For your first exercise, isolate and target your muscle with an exercise that is specific to one muscle without using many secondary muscles. A good example is dumbbell flys for chest.

After, move on to a broader exercise such as the flat bench press which mainly targets the chest but also uses the triceps. Now your chest is more prone to tiring out before your triceps. Pre-exhaustion is a great way to shock a targeted muscle.

MleighS84 “ interesting - i have heard of this method of training before - not really for me, i prefer the traditional compound exercises, they provide me great results. def something to try to intensify your workout and really get deep into the muscle-fiber of the larger muscles ”
