    cardio... a good pre should also help you lose some weight and bring more intensity to your workouts.
    Train hard no shortcuts!

    Do you mean bring your pecs closer together as in less seperation between them or lose fat?

    I found the pec-deck has created some nice shape on my chest, especially the inner chest. I think this will help create 'less separation' for you.

    When you do it though there is no need to go super heavy. Its a isolation exercise so keep the rep range between 8-12 with controlled movement on the positive and the negative. The most important thing about this exercise is the get the full contraction, so when you are performing the exercise don't grip the handles with your fingers, just hold it with your palms. As you are performing the rep (on the positive) to ensure you get a full contraction make the handles touch each other. If you grip the handles with your fingers it will prevent you from achieving a full contraction. It might only be and extra 2-3cm of movement but trust me it will make all the difference and you will definitely be able to feel it better

    Also, make sure you have a controlled negative. The stretch bottom of the negative is just as important as the contraction at the top of the positive.

    On a side note if your bf is too high you wont notice anything until you are at a reasonable level.

    My answer may sound simple, but that's just because it straight up is, lol. Remember, the gap between your chest is not from improper lifting, or not training your chest a certain way or hitting a certain exercise, it's genetic. You were born with a wide gap between your left pec and your right. Over time, you chest will grow as will every other muscle. And over this time, the gap will fill. One of my clients had a major gap between both pec fibers in the dead center. I've been training him for over 3 years and his chest has grown considerably in that amount of time, and low n' behold, the gap got smaller simply because he's put slounds of beef there. Some good advice on technique and training has been given above, heed that advice, keep busting your ass and explode that chest. In time your pecs will grow bigger while the gap grows smaller.

    Your pecs are connected at the sternum and the clavical bones. Just keep working it, and it will fill in. I have the same problem, but it's slowly starting to look okay.
