post your chest routine
im tryin to dial in my chest routine and was hoping we could get some fellas to post there routine
one member suggested to me recently one 4 sets of low reps compound and one burnout iso per week-which seemed a lil light to me
...post your routine and maybe why you think it works best for building pecs

I think incline gives your chest a better look. plus its easier on the shoulders than bench, at least for me. anything over 300 lb on the bench hurts my shoulders but incline I never have pain.

Your gonna have to try different routines for yourself to see what works for you. When I say try I don't mean for 1-2 weeks, I mean for 5-6 weeks. Give the routine I gave you a try, but that routine is not meant to do if your only working out your chest. It's meant to do if you perform Chest/tri's on the same day or a different combo that suits you better. You should also read up on fascia stretching if you haven't already.
