Chest needs help
« on: November 10, 2015, 03:26:04 PM »
Guys, what is a way to seriously bring up a genetically weak chest? After my gyno surgery, its pretty evident how horrible my chest shape is

Here are some stats of mine;
-chest is scott stiener like so uppr and lower fullness on the sides by arm pit, but middle up and down is so weak.
-no upper chest
-chest is always sore after training it (good or bad?)
-train it about once a week
-on TRT
-rarely blast higher with doses of my trt rx

Incline flyes for upper, cables for lower. Moderate weight, 8-12 reps
All the bench presses in the world did little for me but as soon as I went to these isolation movements my chest grew.
Just my 2cents

Ive been doing flys for years though.

Maybe i need to just suck it up and do a very upper body focused split
Mon: chest, arms
Weds: delts, light chest
Fri: chest, delts
Sat: back, some light arms

I dont care about legs. They will look good with cardio and i dont ever care to don a thong
I thhink i really need to just activate the muscles more often and focus on getting the upper body i feel like i should have

If im eating a bit over maintenence that should be ok

Fuck this naive shit, there are no secret movements. Just train hard and safe at the same time, eat well and take enough time to recover.

Try some variations to find out what feels good to you, and this is very personal. For example, I really believe in decline DB presses myself, but I also know people who feel nothing.

You say you train once a week. How many days are you sore afterwards? Maybe consider training twice a week?

A good frequency is every 5 days. If you train with volume and remember the fact there is over lap then it is more than enough. You have to remember that your soft structures ligaments and tendons are worked too. They do not recover so fast...bear that in mind regarding injuries

2-3 days after . Not debilitating just sore. Compared to biceps or delts, those parts never get sore

If the weakness only became apparent after gyno surgery go back to the docs and get the gyno put back in

imo best way to bring up a weak point is to hit it twice a week for a while. obviously dont go as hard for each workout.. but being on a little assistance helps with the recovery. al,so note being on gear even a little means training more for a massive pump is much more effective than traditional 8-12 rep sets.

 my advice is hit is twice a week, pump it to the moon and back and practice flexing it with that pump you get. mind muscle connection helps a lot with chest. also dont expect massive results immediately. keep consistent with your approach and it will grow over time. and if nothing else works just accept the facts youre presented with and dont stress it you still probably have a better chest than most ;)

do something like

flat dumbbell bench work up to heavy set of 8 reps then drop weight by 30 percent and go for as many reps as possible dont even count. counting reps is pointless for muscle growth. use reps as a means to measure strength progress only.

then hit some hammer strength inclines just shit tons of reps and sets get your chest stupid pumped to the max.

then finish with dips to stretch the hell out of it do 2 or 3 sets and rep to failure nice and slow and deep (no homo).

between sets flex it by crossing your upper arms in front of you so the muscle is contracted and squeezing hard. really helps this one i found..

^this..

but seriously, if u have good delts, then this is common. flying movements is one way to combat it, but you cant change genetics.

High Rep Hex Press as a finisher, along with push ups with hands elevated for larger ROM.

Up the dose
