Title: hows my chest workout
Post by: slacker on January 31, 2010, 10:59:26 PM
I warm up on a seated bench machine and then I move on to
Incline barbell press  4 x8
flat barbell press 4 x8
decline barbell press 4x8
incline dumbell press 4x 8
decline dumbell press 4 x8
cable cross overs  4x12
seated shoulder press 4 x12  I find this hits the top of my chest after a full workout. 
If anyone has any better ideas please let me know.   thanks

You have nothing to be ashamed of. You have a good base.

you could switch the bb presses with db presses every other workout...  all those presses,, inc, flat, decl, and even mili's for the tops,,, which is cool,,, to add in db presses same w/o that's a lot,,,  maybe 1 w/o w/ bb next db's.
just a thought.

Negative. He has an excellent pear taper. Looks like a bull and you can tell he's "on." Old schmoes love that look.

I just jumped up hugely in that department.  Im like a fucking bull.  I always cover up at teh gym ie I wear huge baggy sweaters but I think everyone can tell im on now.

I also think way to much volume.
3 different exercises top.

For upper centre chest, incline hugs( not quite a fly, not quite a press) leaves me sore in that area

28 sets is way too much. Suggest dips, inclines and if you must, pec deck work. 3 sets each of 7 to 10 reps each.

If that is the real Slacker in the pic, than I may suggest working on the lats and delts for width and size, not being too concerned with the chest right now. Interesting waist ratio, almost have to ask, 'how did that happen?'  May have to adjust the carb's and cardio (interval training hopefully) a bit. Good Luck.

If that is a real pic of Slacker, I would say it's time for diet and cardio.


Then, and only then might you be able to see what you do and don't "need"... besides food and brew.
