Are you training all the muscles in your body, or just the “targeted” areas you want to see change in?

Avoiding any muscle group is simply a bad idea because it can lead to many types of imbalances in the body. For example, many women skip chest exercises or it’s on the bottom of the workout routine for them. I used to think that only men needed to train chest, well I was wrong.
When skipping chest exercises and continuing to train every other muscle group you can develop several muscular imbalances and bad posture. Your chest plays an important role in performing many other exercises of body groups such as shoulders, back, and arms. It is possible that you might even injure your self trying to perform exercises that involve some chest muscles if you don’t have the ability to push or pull your own weight. The chest is such a large muscle area that you actually burn more calories training those muscles than training smaller muscle groups.
Chest exercises lead to a higher rate of fat burning, avoid injury, better posture, and a well rounded strong balanced body. If you’ve ever seen a women with well rounded beautiful shoulders or triceps, you would be surprised to find out that chest workouts really help develop those body parts! This goes for all muscle groups as well. If you want a stronger back, legs, tighter core, or arms, the key is to train your entire body, and you WILL get better and faster results overall!
