CHEST:
This powerful muscle group is the cornerstone of a well-developed upper body. To most thoroughly work your pecs, include both pressing and fly movements and vary the angle of the bench from decline to flat to incline.

UPPER BACK:
A powerful upper back is marked by both middle-back thickness and width (the sought-after V-taper). This is best achieved by combining various rows with pull-downs
and pull-ups. Remember to vary your grip to slightly change the stimulus.

UPRIGHT ROW
LOWER BACK:
Important not only for spinal protection but also because it’s the seat of power for many exercises. If you spend a great deal of time crunching for abs, you need to balance your training for complete development and muscular balance.

TRICEPS:
This three-headed muscle on the back of your arm is involved in extension of the elbow. Like the biceps, the triceps cross the elbow and shoulder joints. Because of this, you can and should work the triceps through a variety of angles to ensure complete development.

BICEPS / FOREARMS:
A two-headed muscle, the biceps’ primary focus is to flex your elbow and supinate your wrist. The ability to build your biceps peak is largely genetic, but exercises that maximally stress the short head will help.

THIGHS / GLUTES:
The main muscles of the thighs are the quadriceps which are composed of four muscles. You have several others near the hip joint, including the body’s largest
muscle group, the gluteals. Multijoint movements (in which action occurs at both the hip and knee joints) are your best choice to work these muscles.

HAMSTRINGS:
On the back of the thighs, the hamstrings balance the quads and allow for a wide range of movement. Good exercise choices include those that work the hamstrings and both the hip and knee joints.
