    I feel your pain Wargo, I just started a thread similar to this afew days ago.
    I'm 6'3" I think it mught have to do with the length of our arms that puts us at a disadvantage when it comes to benching. pics would help give people a better idea of what exercises would be best for you.

    yes i will post pics when I am out of the office. no access to the pics till i am home. yes the long arms pisses me off but i wont lie, my arms built longer look better then the short built arms. My arms are 18.5'' so no complaints for being so tall. They fit my body and are defined. My chest just seems to be the thing seperating me from a fit body to a great body. my diet has been slacking a little lately too so im sure that hasnt been helping but over the years its just like come on seriously just grow more. im whining a little but its just pissing me off lately and watching my buddies who are shorter build it up alot quicker.

    Ive always been confused with this.

    My wingspan is 4 inches longer than my height, yet my chest is my best bodypart. Arms are by far the worst

    thats wierd, cause my arms are probably my best body part besides legs, but my chest lacks power. develpoment is ok but pawer is in the toilet.

    I'm 6'1" with a 82" wingspan... my hands touch my knees. I have 18.5" arms now (after cutting) and they still look small. I've always had problems with my chest but after switching to DB only exercises I have noticed a great improvement. An incredible improvement actually. I'll never use a barbell for chest again...

    yeah thats how I feel. I love dumbbells. Problem is finding a gym with heavy enough ones

    82" wingspan on 6'1" that is insane. Im 6'2" and mine is 78" I thought that was a lot

    Arms extended, middle fingertip to middle fingertip. I actually have an 84" wingspan when I fully extend but that is freak status so I always pinch my shoulders together slighly and say it's an 82"...
