Need a new chest routine

YSK · 07-18-2007, 10:24 PM

well ive had success for a long time with what i thought to be a decent chest/tricep routine, but now it seems ive hit a sort of plateau.

this is my current routine

3x Bench press 6-8 reps
3 x incline db press 8-10 reps
cable or db flys, 10 reps
CG bench press three times, 10 reps
and sometimes i would put in some isolation work for the triceps.

I was wondering if someone cud help me remake a new routine to help further myself in terms of a bigger bench and an overall stronger upper frame.

What does the rest of your program look like? As detailed as you can get it please. More than likely the problem lies there.

You don't need a new chest routine. You need a new understanding of training.

well currently i have a leg injury, my right knee is really screwed up from soccer. So no legs for awhile, so the only other thing left is my back/shoulder

3 x DB seated military press
3 x bent over db or bb rows
3 x seated cable rows
3 x lat pull downs
3 x bicep curls or shrugs depending on how i feel
3 x seated hammer curls

reps are usually in teh 8-10 area.
