Thread: Only doing 2 excercises for chest...should i do more?

so do you change your routine after a certain amount of time or after your gains have leveled off? and what do you change the type of excercise? the order? the sets?

I say do more. Well, if you want to get cut and have the bodybuilder desired look, two more excersizes should help. Flyes, pec deck, cables.

For strength and size, Id still say do more, but I guess it COULD result in overtraining. Shit, I dont know on this one. Youre already doing 2 excersizes and making gains, would incorporating 1-2 more excersizes really hurt? I suppose its possible. Hmm...someone want to add?

getting cut and looking like a Bodybuilder is all about diet.

If it's working, don't change it. Would you take your car to the mechanic and say "Have a look, it's running fine."? Probably not.

For strength, I'd really recommend sticking to only basic compound movements that will have functional carryover. Do them with high intensity and low volume.

For maximum definition, I'd recommend (after proper dieting of course) cable movements. These keep constant tension on the muscles being worked throughout the entire ROM, which free weights can't do. While they won't have nearly as much functional carryover as free weights, if the desired goal is mass, cables will probably be superior because of time under tension (actually I'm just guessing this has something to do with it; I'm not very familiar with this term).
