You are on vacation, the gym is not available, and you do not want to let your hard build muscular mass starts to sink. After all, all you want is to go on the beach and vamp babes.

Here are a few exercises in which you can use your body weight, and effectively compensate the lack of machines!

Exercise 1

Larry Scott Spreading

Below you can see the picture of first Mr. Olympia champion, and how is he performing a  little known exercise with gymnastics handles.

This is a great isolating exercise for chest, for all those who have enough strength that in this way can perform (and of course, have gymnastics handles available).

Exercise 2

Spreading On Pilates Ball

And another kind of chest spreading where you using your own weight. All you need are two balls for exercise, which you balancing on elbows and forearms (quite similar exercises with butterfly machine).

Begin exercise only when your hands are in parallel position to the floor, and then roll the ball, using only the work of chest muscles.

In case you want to do this exercise in combination with standard push-ups, it is always best to perform this exercise before push-ups, because the exercise is much heavier than it appears at first sight!
