need a bigger chest

[LoBo]

I looking around for a good rountine that focuses on chest muscles. This is what i do right now.

4 sets db pullover
4 sets bb curls
2 sets flat bb bench
2 sets incline bb bench
3 sets French press

Everything is sets of 10..I use enough weight, I think.
My arms feel like the are 2x large every time I'm finished
lifting..

I do not take any supplements ( Well beside weight gainer)
If you guys can help me out I would appreciate it...

Try cutting down to around 9 sets from your 15. Also, trying throwing in some flies and a dropset or two, once or twice a week. That's been working for me, it may work for you.

 

[LoBo]

Dropset? WTF is that?

 

[brogers]

ex: You bench 225 for 8, drop the weight to 185 do it 8 more with no rest, etc...

 

[QuestionGuy]

it takes diet, training and most off all time, you are doing hopefully all, so it should come...

 

[Dante]

if you want to focus on a particular muscle group you should prioritize your workouts accordingly. start with mass building exercises when you have the most energy. ex.4-5 sets of fl. bench/ 3 sets of in. bench/ dips or decline bench, etc.
you should also do chest on a seperate day.

MY rountine is every other day and I do when I start out I do the max weight I can. Then slowly work down (either less intense excerise or less weight).
Like I said my arms are gretting big and my chest doesn't do a thing.. My chest doesn't even burn or feel tight when I'm finished working out...My arms and shoulders do though. Is that normal or am I under training my chest.

Man you guys rock for these answers
If you guys have anymore feed back, I can use all I can get..

 

[Dante]

make sure your form is right, its easy to use triceps and front delts when benching..

Really man, try a dropset of flies and try and tell me you feel nothing.

 

[LoBo]

That is more than likely what I am doing..thanks man..

cfs3,
I'll try that in a few minutes..Getting ready to go lift..Now should I do flies every other day or once or twice a week?

I only work chest once a week, so I only do flies once a week.

Why dont you do 4 sets of flat and incline bench instead of and only do 2 for your pullovers if you must do those. I read that pullovers are not as effective as once thought. Also why are you talking about a chest routine and throwing in curls? I recommend you do biceps on back day and triceps on chest day. Thats what I do. Some might argue that triceps are fatigued after doing bench and biceps are fatigued after doing back so they should not be done on the same day. I am not sure though. But I definetly think if you want to work your chest more you should move more of your sets into the incline and flat bench.

Oh and what are French press?

 

[LoBo]

French press: is a back excrise... bb is over head and slowly put it behind you head and back up (pause half way up and let it set for a few seconds the go all the way up).

 

[DOMS]

The French Press, a.k.a. Skullcrushers, are considered a triceps exercise.

This is what i do right now.

4 sets db pullover
4 sets bb curls
2 sets flat bb bench
2 sets incline bb bench
3 sets French press

[LoBo]
