Does anyone have a good routine for chest one that has worked well for you, and hits every angle hard...
I currently do.. Flat Benchs
Incline Benchs
Flat Flyes..
I'am not sure if I should add some decline work or take out the flat flyes and do inclines instead.... what do you guys suggest I do 4 exercises max...

how about something for the 'upper chest'
i can't seem to get that to grow as my lower & middle areas are, it looks kinda goofy
any pointers, excercises that help that other than incline flies/bench?
Start your workout with incline dumbbell presses for about 4 weeks. Make sure you go heavy. Then you can go back to using the barbell.

Incline Presses with a Bar restrict your range of motion... because you have a bar across your chest which restricts that range of motion as with dumbells you can get a deeper stretch in the pecs because theres no bar in the way again... presses with DB's in my opinion would be superior because they in turn will break down the muscle alot better because of the deeper stretch and range of motion thats increased by using the dumbells instead of the Barbell..

WEIGHTED DIPS. that is what helped me get a big chest.
I currently do a 45 and 25 lb. plate for 4 sets of 10. And it doesn't take long
before you will go up in weight...I hate dips, but I love the results....Age: 22 Height: 6'0'' Weight: 205 BF: 11%
