Need to thicken chest

"Who is your Daddy and what does he do?"
I don't know if you've seen em, but i put my pics up in the members pics section. I always had a hard time getting my chest bigger, so i need some help.

Right now i try to follow this as much as i can, but i do this:

Sunday - Chest and Abs
Monday- Back and Traps
Tuesday - Rest (cardio)
Wednesday - Arms and abs
Thursday - Legs
Friday - Shoulders
Saturday - Rest (cardio)

When i do chest, i do Bench Press (barbell), Incline Dumbbell's, and Flat Bench Fly's... i'm thinking should i either change up my routine so i'm doing chest twice a week, or should i switch every sunday so that one sunday i'll do my routine, then the next one i'll do Incline Bench Press (barbell), Flat bench Dumbbell Press, and Incline Fly's?

Give me advice if you can, Much appreciated, thanks.
 
You ever do dips? I believe those to be highly effective, although my chest is not much to speak of. Also, I never really feel the chest flyes in my pecs unless I do them at an incline. Give it a whirl, ya never know.

i always feel them doing flys,,, just flex hard at the top of the motion, then bring them down slowly.

and i shouldn't say i don't do dips, but i usually only do like 1 set of 10 reps at the end of a workout or something. I just don't find it does too much,, but i hate dips cause i usually feel it more in my triceps. When i lean a bit forward to work my chest more, i end up swinging or something, it's weird but it doesn't work out too well for me.


I dunno, anyone else got anything? My chest is getting smaller as we speak!!!
 
my chest was sooooo pathatic untill i realized what i was doing wrong. i usually only pressed on my chest days, by the way i have great front delts and tricepts. All the presses did was make my shoulders and tri's bigger. now i start with flat fly's move to incline fly's then on to cable fly's and maybe finish with a dumbell press. i have made more gains in two months then in two years of pressing. hope it helps

by the way i got some gyno too, if you want it

Maybe i'll give that a try on my next workout and see how it feels. And haha nah i'll pass on the gyno. Thanks.
 
Hey man what's up? I don't have a huge chest but I once had a small chest that didn't want to grow. I then tried a workout out of Flex by Ronnie Coleman. I don't usually follow the workouts in the mag's but I tried it and I did notice strength and size increase in my chest. I will try to find it and copy it down 4 ya. It went something like this though to give you an idea. 12 weeks- Flat Barbell, Pushups superset
Incline Dumbells, Incline Flyes superset
Flat Flyes , Dips superset
It consists of 3 or 4 groups of superstes for chest which you can modify to suit you. It was a very high intensity workout man and I recommend it to you. I will look for it tonight if you are seriously gonna try it! Let me know if you want it!
 
I'm interested in hearing about this workout, anyways. I'm trying to remember what he did for chest in 'The Unbelievable'...I think it was all dumbell presses, flat and incline, and then some flyes.

Yeah man, i seriously gotta build up my chest (mostly upper chest),,, i'd like to check it out if you wouldn't mind,,, thanks bro.
 
Sorry about not replying sooner, I'm usually on the training posts like stink on shit......LOL.

I incorporate presses, flies, and dips in my chest workout, and I vary between dumbells and barbells for each exercise week to week, as well as changing what I do at what angle. I really can't tell you how to bring up a lagging chest because mine has always been big, just with a nice case of gyno around the base of it.

isn't gyno that side effect u get from steroids that gives u tits?

Yes, gyno is the side effect you get from steroids if you don't do proper post cycle therapy (pct) & all that stuff; more specifically, that is Type 1 Gynecomastia. I, however, cannot claim that particular fame. My gyno is Type 2, or puberty induced gyno. This type is caused by hormone imbalances (or, in my case, obesity can contribute) during puberty. Either one of these types can induce a hard lump of tissue behind the nipple or simply cause one to develop fatty man boobs. I, thankfully, only have the fatty tissue and not the hard lump. Therefore, I'm hoping that my next cutting phase (End of March possibly???) can get rid or at least extremely reduce these by combining diet, clen/ECA cycling, and a topical fat burner applied directly to my man tits.
 
do some dumbbell pullovers, i hardly ever see ppl do this. I do them with heavy weight once every 2 weeks. It expandes your rib cage. i notice the differince now that i do them regulerly, makes u look thick front and back, give them a shot and see. the next morning is killer after doing them though, hahhaha
 
what do your reps look like on your sets?
If you are just doing 3 x 12 then maybe you need to break it up
more weight, less reps, more sets always seems to help me out.
I rarely do any barbell work as my shoulders seem to suffer, so I think DB's are great.
Try incorporating other lifts to change things up as others have said, like dips and pull overs, cables can be cool also.
Variety in your training can't hurt

How exactly should i do them though? i see people lay on the bench the long way (like you would if you were doing bench press), and do it that way, but the way i thought you were supposed to do them was to lay the other way on the bench, so that just your shoulders and upper back are on the bench and when you lower the weight you should bring your lower body closer to the floor for a full stretch,,, which one is the proper one to see results?

Yeah i was thinking i'll probably vary from dumbbells to barbells each week,,, i'll try that for now and see how it works, but i'll also add in using cable's, pull overs, and dips every now and then,,, hopefully i'll see results.

I basically always keep the reps no higher then 8 (unless it's a warm up) and just push as hard as i can until failure.

Yeah i think i need some variety, that should make a difference.

Thanks for the tips everyone.
