Hi,

I need a gym buddy in Penang from 6 Oct to 9 Oct and 25 Oct to 8 Nov. I am on holiday so I am cool with any gym and any time.

Cheers

not a mentor here, just a avid gym goer, hope it helps

typical trainee (over emphasis on building the barrel chest) experience postural changes (i.e. rounded shoulders, forward head posture) caused primarily by overdevelopment (shortening) of the pecs and lats in relation to their antagonist (scapular, upper back muscles and the rhomboids (mid back) to a certain extent) 

this can happen also when most bench with a flat back without retracting the shoulder blades

one of the solutions

Strive to keep your push and pull exercises close to a 1:1 ratio (e.g. A1 Bench Press A2 Chest supported Rows/Barbell Rows etc.) Place a great emphasis on rowing motions and also chins/pullups. Balance is the key to shoulder health, if one can perform 3RM Chins (add your body weight and weight added together). If that equals at least 80 percent of your bench 3RM, you’re in good shape. If it's the same, virtual high 5.

some awesome exercise that can help immensely

inverted rows



To do these correctly, you must get your chest to the bar. 75 percent of the shoulder problems can be solved by improving scapular stability. By pulling the bar to your sternum, you will force your scapulas into a retracted position and activate your middle and lower traps—two big, scapular stabilizers. These also teaches on how to retract shoulder blades during the bench press.
