Excessive exertion will not help you achieve results faster. Start with short, easy exercises, gradually increasing the difficulty.
Step 2

Take dumbbells in each hand, lie down, bend your arms at the elbow and begin to bring them together and spread them. 2 sets of 20 repetitions are considered optimal for a start, then you can gradually reach three sets of 25 repetitions, but in no case more! Make sure that your arms remain bent throughout the exercise, otherwise you can damage your joints.

Do push-ups on the uneven bars. This exercise will be effective if you take three sets of 10-12 reps in one workout. It is recommended to perform training with the passage of the entire system of exercises three times a week, and warm-up exercises to maintain the tone of the pectoral muscles are done every day.
