Subject: THREE forms of resistance in ONE exercise...(if you want muscle, read this)
This is Hybrid Training...
And THIS is the best example of it...Cable Dumbbell Chain Bench Press...
1. The dumbbells give you most effective resistance out of the bottom stretch position...it gets easier as you press to the top and the resistance shifts to the triceps, losing tension in the pecs.
2. The cables give you diagonal resistance (inwards) on the pecs...you get very little tension at the bottom but PEAKING as you press to the top, giving you a strong contraction on the pecs. I've got the cables clipped onto a pair of ankle harnesses on my forearms (you can also loop the cables around the dumbbell handles and clip them back onto themselves to attach).
3. The chains are attached to the dumbbell handles and add progeressively more weight as you press through to the top and the leverage gets better for the dumbbell press.
Combine ALL THREE of these forms of resistanace at once and you get MASSIVE tension on the pecs.
This perfectly matching the strength curve AND the ideal line of pull for the chest...through the ENTIRE exercise...not just a part of it, like in a barbell bench press.
This is not a novelty act.
This is Hybrid Training...and it's literally two to three times as effective as "normal" training.
All you need is free weight and another form of resistance (i.e. bands, cables, chains, etc) and you can do the same...matching strength curves and adjusting the line of pull for exercises for every major muscle group in your body.
This flat-out WORKS.
