did you mean cable flyes? Do you mix it up with decline work? I am bombarding you cz I want more plates on my bar. I dont need to bench a house, I want to look like I can lol. However the stronger I am the more muscle mass I can gain.

wk 1: incline db, flat db, decline smith, incline flyes, flat flyes, decline flyes, cable rope pullovers, pec deck, abs
wk 2: flat bar, incline bar, decline bar, incline flyes, flat flyes, decline flyes, cable rope pullovers, pec deck, abs

if you want your bench to move up then focus on your inclines and explosiveness. then do your benching secondary. that will move it up big time. when i say explosive i dont mean slinging the bar around all crazy and stuff. i mean come down and pause then push the bar up as hard and fast as possible. when you lose speed on the bar then shut it down. that force you generate will increase your strength hand over fist with traditional tempo style training

Re: What does your chest day look like

like I have chains on the bar to work on explosiveness. I know what you mean. jerking and twerking doesn't get the job done and leads to injury and what's worse, less muscle mass lol. I have noticed suicide grip really isolates the chest as well. its getting my arms to do less work that nails me.

if your arms are making an l shape on the range of motion then you are in perfect position for the press. if it is inside or outside of that then you will tend to use more tri or shoulder. the perfect position when you lineup on the bar should form a perfect l shape. chains are also good for the explosiveness as are bands. i forgot about that off the top of my head haha

close grip is my favorite awesome for the long head of tri. What is a 1 shape? my head to the side and legs apart? haha

an aside, I love flyes for chiseling my chest. Slight incline shoulder press has developed my shoulders awesome but also upper chest.

should form an L shape upside down when you lay down on the bench and grip the bar. that is supposed to be the most effective hand spacing for full recruitment of all the muscle involved

Re: What does your chest day look like

My chest workouts are different every week. I might do max bench one week...135lb for 300 reps one week...500 push-ups one week. I go in with no plan at all. Makes my training spontaneous and fun.

Re: What does your chest day look like

Start off with 2 sets of flies for 25 reps to get warm. Straight to flat bb bench, which I’ve felt had always been worthless for my chest development until I added bands in from one side, under the bench to the other end of the bb. Now it’s by far my favorite exercise, constant tension the entire way through. 5 sets, working my way up.

Slight incline dB press, 3 working sets, as hard as possible between 4-8 reps.

Weighted dips.

Pull overs

Chest and back have always been my best body parts and the easiest muscles for me to feel working.
