    I just did a 3 moth upper chest builder...I did incline barbell, incline db (we have adjustable benches) I did one set a t 30, one set at 40 then a final one at 50 degress, that ended my presses I also did flyes and dips....it worked great for me so IMO if you want a bigger upper chest git rid of the decline exercises and put some more incline in there

    I'd suggest that after you warm up, focus on heavy (5-8 reps) incline barbell presses at varying degrees like BlueAndromeda73 suggested. Dumbbells can be used as well for variation. Stick to your compound movements and I'd do barbell flat press as well for overall mass development. Total set range can be between 10-14 depending on your recovery rate.
