    Feeling motivated today - good chest workout?

    Summer school sucks. Been busy as hell and haven't got a decent workout in a week. Going to get jacked up on jack3d and want to get opinions on my workout and if i should add/take out anything

    incline barbell bench press 7 reps x 5 reps
    incline dumbell press 4 x 8 with last set being triple drop set
    flat barbell bench press 3 x 8
    incline dumbell flyes 3x8
    close grip bench press 3x8

    then finish off with 100 dips, 200 situps, 200 pushups circuit.


    Doing too much? not doing enough?

    how many days a week do you think u have train a body part?

    I train every body prt 1 time a week.Thats sufficient and works for me. just cause you r in the gym longer doesnt mean anything.If your going to grow your going to grow.You either have genetics or not. Even if your training everybody prt 2 times a week being there 2 hrs a day and possibly with with a **** diet dont mean a thing.

    4-5 days a week i train,with 2-3 days off a week.

    Incline presses,incline flys,dips and flat presses is a great chest workout. Done in and out in 45 mins.

    I would follow jay's aforementioned recommendation and see the results you get.

    Definitely appreciate the feedback. I keep getting anxious for some reason because it seems I'm only getting 2-3 sessions a week. Kept thinking I wasn't working as hard as I needed to to progress faster.

    You should be doing the chest work that fits into your properly constructed full routine with a progression scheme and trackable\measurable results that you perform with the proper frequency.
    The floundering has ended.

    if you can only get in 3 days a week, do a 3 day split and then you can increase the total number of sets compared to a one muscle group workout

    The challenge is the diet. The lifting is all done in your head. Physically resist temptation; mentally, don't let yourself fail.

    thats what i was going to say.. i dotn like splits.I have always found a way to squeeze in 4 days no matter what.Even if i rush through my workout.I still hit it hard as i Ccan,. As for a split they can be long and grueling.I dont wanna be in the gym longer than i have to. Squeezing in that 4th days works great.For me that is.
