can never get a good chest workout?

[viking88]

20 years old been lifting on and off since i was 14 and ive noticed over the years that i can never get a good chest workout in.. no matter how many exercises i do or how many sets it seems that my chest never gets that "pump" .. everything else i do i can always get a good workout in and i leave the gym feeling accomplished.. my chest has always been my weakest part and i really want to change that..

the only way i ever get a good chest workout is if i do very high rep with lots of drop sets and/or supersets.. but my goal is to keep my workouts in the 6-8 range..


what do i do? keep everything 6-8 reps but when chest day comes just do the whole high rep thing?

i apperciate the advice

do negative reps that is what i do and dont start heavy work your way up in weights.

Drop sets, rest-pause, negatives, forced reps, etc.

are your tri's and delts alot more advanced than your pecs? have you tried dbell benching instead of barbell? flys? dips?

Tips

Drop your shoulders and squeeze your mid back holding your scapula together

Focus on the muscle your working (muscle-mind connection)

Do more decline work where little anterior delt is recruited due to the angle of motion

Also do a lot of fly's and DB work in general

I have the same problem. I feel more in my shoulders(front) than I do in my chest. My shoulders tend to slump forward naturally. I wish I could find some stretching exerceises that would actually pull my shoulders back. When I do chest I feel like I am mainly working the front of my shoulders. I feel it really hinders my chest development and the weight I can lift. If I do shoulders earlier in the week before chest I can't even make it through my chest workout.
