hi all,
i am new to body building. i started working out about a year ago, but after two months, i had a sporting injury. its been a month since i recovered and now i have started working out once again.
i have two major problems,
1. my upper chest refuses to grow, i have tried 45 degrees incline and 60 degree incline bench. i now lift about the same amount of weight on shoulders as much as i lift on the incline bench, but my upper chest still doesn't grow. i try to keep flyes light and bench press heavy for form and symetry's sake.
2. no matter how much i try, i cant break through a plateau on reverse flyes.
comments are welcome. please help.
ali

You're lifting with your deltoids maybe? Stop getting them into play and try focusing on your Pectoralis.
My upper-chest is very stubborn too so I started doing 6 sets of incline bench press before moving on to the flat bench press.
This is what my routine looks like and it's helped me look better :-
- Incline bench press 3
- Incline db. press 3
- Flat bench press 4
- Incline bench flyes 4 (60 degrees)
