16 and I want pecs!?!


Question: 16 and I want pecs!!?
I've turned 16 and I really want some muscle!. Is it usual for a guy to start off building some muscle and pecs now!? I mean I'm skinny but you know not like ultra skinny, I've got muscle that comes out of my arm when I clench it at the side but no definition on my pecs!. Any exercise or advice can you give me!? cheers!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Don't listen to the guy saying he doesn't reccomend lifting weights, im 14 and have pecs and can do the boob dance, I started off by doing just 5 sets of 20 repitition Push ups, then im starting to go to the gym with my dad, and we do Incorpirated Flys, which really work your chest and along with your shoulders, so take it from me, Push ups then hit the gym and do the chest work out machine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Bench Press is a very simple exercise to gain pecs!. I recommend starting out on 3 sets of 10!. However be careful, dont forget to do incline bench press and decline bench press, or your pecs can get very "top heavy"!. Also, dont forget to do dumbell bench press and flys to keep your pecs from spreading apart and getting a empty spot on your chest!. I have a friend who did just straight bench and now he is battling this problem, and it looks quite goofy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if your just starting, do pushups!. make sets and reps!. as you start doin more of them, you can work up to other exercises such as bench press, pec flies, etc!. if you cant get to a gym, start doing wide and close grip pushups as well as regular to hit all aspects of your chest!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't recommend lifting weights yet!. You are still young!. Try doing calisthenics eg push ups!. They work the pecs well!.
Lifting weights now could shut off calcium to your bones and divert them to your muscles there by causing limited growth!. U still have some way to go though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes!. bench press and butterfly curls!. protein!. supplements!. rest (3x workout sessions per week max, non-consecutive)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am in the same boat as you man!.
