I'm always on the lookout for new exercise equipment. I have found that variety keeps me from getting bored, and different equipment utilizes muscles in different ways. So when I heard about the Iron Chest Master I was more than willing to give it a try.
I'm only 4'10" and I have a hard time doing the chest fly machine at the gym. No matter what I do to the equipment I can't seem to get the machine set up to fit me. I do use weights to do the chest fly, but I know that I often lose form. Well check this out.
There are several different exercises that you can do with the Iron Chest Master. One is to do a push-up then slide the handles in together. (Notice my form isn't 100% correct. My arms should be straight instead of bent. I had too much resistance). I removed a couple of the bands, and then I was able to get the correct form (with straight arms) .
You can also do traditional push-ups.
(Check out my tan lines from working outside when we went to Texas this past week)
The Iron Chest Master is like doing a bench press, dumbbell press, push-up, cable-crossover, pec deck, and dumbbell fly all in one piece of equipment.
My initial thoughts? It definitely wasn't easy. But upper body and core are two of my weaker areas. I only did 5 reps of each exercise the first day. The following day I was super sore! In fact, I wasn't able to complete the set the following day and keep form. So I took a rest day.
I was amazed at how something so simple worked so well. I worked my chest, my arms and my abs. (There is even an ab exercise that you can do. I tend to use every muscle but my abs according to my trainer friend. So I am having to work on targeting my abs instead of using other muscles.)
My overall opinion of the Iron Chest Master is that I love it. I plan to use it as part of my weekly strength training workout. Another bonus is that it's light and easy to carry where I need it. It's easy to clean, and easy to store. I am well pleased with the Iron Chest Master, and I think you would be too.
