How?

Ok guys i am a tall guy and my arms are abnormally long. When i do chest like bench press, incline BP, and dumbbell bench my shoulders are killing me but i feel that im not working my chest very well. I have tried doing low weights to focus on my chest more but i have done this for two months and i have not seen no progress on my chest. What should i do?

change the width of your grip to see if that helps add dips and just keep at it.

You could also pre exhaust the pectorals with a high set of incline flyes. Number of reps irrellivant (sp) just a weight enough to go over 20 and keep going till failure.

Just my 2 cents

I already have a wider grip but i will try it. I do dips religiously...

i will try this too but i have done this too millions of time but i think im not getting a quality work out. I want my chest to develop well.

BUMP!

I used to have a similar problem as my shoulders/tri's are my strongest asset and chest never seemed to get a hammering. However, doing the incline pre exhaustion followed by heavy sets of d/bell benching works for me provideing I bring the dbells in contact at the top.

i had the same problem i was told it was my delt dieing before my chest so all i had to do is work on my delts and that fixed the problem. hope this helps bro

I have the same issue's. I have some long arms also. What I noticed is if I take bb out completely and just use db's, that seems to help alot. Also, I started working my rotator cuff to stengthen up my shoulder joints.

Yeah i have been doing that now working on my shoulders alot as well as my tri's but i guess i need to be patient. I will try the just db theory and see how that goes too...

Just came back from the gym and worked my shoulders out. They are nice and swole right now gooood feeling hopefully it will help out on chest day
