Same goes for the my lower pec being bigger than my upper pec, but i started doing inclines to fix that. right now i do Benchpress 1x12,1x10,1x8,1x6 , ~120lbs Incline 1x12,1x10,1x8,1x6 ~ 90lbs Fly 3x12 ~ 35lbs per dumbell dips as many as i can do in 2 sets THANKS! |

I would however throw in some cable crossovers at the end of your routine and really concentrate on holding the contraction at the end of the movement. This is particularly good for bringing out striations in your chest. I find doing drop set crossovers at the end of my routine completely taxes my chest, and if I have any energy left I will do some elevated push ups just to make sure im done. |

Man you're not going to grow by "finishing" a muscle group every time you workout. That won't tell your body to build more muscle, it'll tell your body "holy shit I'm gonna need more time to recover unnecessarily". |

Arnold also attirbutes hard chest posing in between sets to further bring out striations. I am sure many of you will also have some fun with that quote also. Arnold is well known for his contraversial techniques eg. Pullovers expanding ribcage. In the case of crossovers, each to their own. You can do as much of this as you like, but you are right in the fact that bf levels will ultimately dictate whether striations are visible. For stack of acticles/comments im not going to post them - do a google "cable crossovers striations" Look forward to the criticism I attract with this post. |
