    Inner and Upper chest? Whats works best for you?

    Hey gents, I am checking to see if anyone has any of their "special" suggestions for getting a better workout on the upper and inner chest. Seems my outer and lower chest always get the majority of the workout.

    I know Inclines, Flys, etc are the best for upper and inner, but I just never really feel it when I do those. But I know everyone has different body types and different exercises work better for them.

    Wondering if any of you fellas have any tweaked or little trade secrets you have invented for getting a better pump in the upper and inner chest that I could try playing around with.

    decline press, flat bench both alternating between dumbbells and barbell
    Flat flyes alternating between cable and freeweight

    Incline is good if you have an upper chest genetically.

    Incline cable bench press. It works with the pennation angle of the muscle fibers better which allows for a more direct/ inline resistance.

    day would be:
    Decline DB (OR BB, alternate weekly or often)
    Flat DB (or BB)
    Flat flyes
    4 sets each not including warmup

    Start your workouts with incline dumbbell presses with a big squeeze at the top to emulate the finality of a fly motion. Pyramid up as you normally would to your heaviest, and finish your last set with a drop set. You should adjust the weight so that you can only do btw. 8-10 reps with each drop during your drop set. Then carry on with your usual chest workout. Eat, sleep, grow...

    There are many ways. Stick to one for at least 4 weeks and see how your body responds. Don't try something new every week.

    close grip bench presses, I always used for big mass on my triceps. At the same time it has always gave me the inner chest definition.
