Upper Chest

SpringsBridge7 · 08-23-2005, 10:46 AM

I have a small upper chest compared to my lower chest, always been a problem for me. It bothers me so much at times i think i look like i have boobs. But its muscle in my lower chest and pecks but the upper just isnt their.It's caused because my ribs behind my upper abs goes out a little when i guess its supposed to go in, in turn causing my lower chest to poke out leaving me with I really think i look strange. Anyway I always do alot of incline bench press, and dumbbell incline press. I dont know what else to do to get my upper chest to catch up to my lower. I need help?

You could drop the angle of the bench on shoulder pressing movements, so that the clavicular (upper) pecs assist the deltoids more. What I mean by this is if you use a vertical bench for shoulder presses; take an adjustable bench and drop the angle so the upper pecs will assist in the movment more.
