How do you get a nicely shaped chest?
My chest looks fine from the front but when I start turning sideways I think it looks weird. It just seems like the one facing outwards towards the mirror is always bigger than the other one, even though they are about the same size. Also, a complete side view also looks weird...it looks like I have no lower chest. Why is this? Here are pictures of my chest.

Upper Chest: Incline Bench
Middle and Side Chest- Standard Bench
Lower Chest- Decline Bench
Inner Chest: Any type of flys, some gyms like mine have machines that specifically work the inner chest. But dumbbell flys work.
Also dont forget to do dumbell bench. for extras do push-ups, dips with you body straight and not slanted forward at all, and eat right of course.

just keep it simple. do Barbell Flats, inclines, declines, dips, DB flys ... switch to DB Flats, inclines , declines, weighted dips, keep the DB flys /// HEAVY WEIGHTS with LOW REPS///
ALSO! EAT enough, clean foods, also if your a Hardgainer, continue with LOTS of clean food, dont go dirty ( pizza Hamburgers) keep your diet, and your Chest will GROW

Dips hurt my shoulders. I recently started decline bench but I am on a cut...is it normal that I'm doing more on decline than I am on standard bench?

i hate the shape of my chest also.

i work out my chest twice a week because thats my weak point.
