Hi there. This is a newbie question for sure, but I've been training hard for about 4 months now. I do a 4 day split routine.
On one of the days, I focus on Pectorals.
I do 4 sets, and increasing weight / decreasing sets, last set to failure:
Bench Press (Dumbbell)
Machine Chest Press (Seated)
Bench Press (Smith Machine, Decline)
Bench Press (Smith Machine, Incline)
Pec Deck Flyes
Flyes (Cable, Bent Over)
Machine Chest Press (Incline)
My problem is that I don't feel the strain in my chest when I'm doing most of these exercises, I feel it mostly in my arms (Triceps & Forearm).
The only exercise where I really feel my chest working is the "Pec Deck Flyes" .
With a mix of machines + free weights, is it normal that I feel it more in my arms than in my pecs, when I'm doing reps up until failure, especially for excurses that are supposed to isolate the pectorals?
Thanks for the advice in advance.
