Did you feel at all that your pecs started becoming “bottom heavy” when you started doing that?
You’re still strong and you’re looking good,
whatever you’re doing you’re doing it right.
For chest if you’re after size i would suggest
getting rid of flat bb and the incline db’s and trying db flat,
decline barbell, seated machine pushes, and dips for a while
and then reevaluate.
Good luck, you’ve been making great physique progess.

I never did them consistently so I’ll throw them in starting today!

Thanks man. I’ll throw that in and I think I’ll do the diagonal machine press with one arm. Tried it and loved it but never consistently…
Great progress! Keep it up
Awesome progress man!

So its been 3 months since my last post. I dropped all the way down to 190, and got pretty darn cut. It’s cool to see how my buddy works as I’ve never done a cut in my life. Just started bulking again the last few weeks, planning on keeping it extremely clean, and not letting myself pack on fat like last time. However, my issue was always my chest. I think even at 240 my chest was like 43 inches yet I was benching 335x3-5… Now three months ago I tried switching up my chest day to the above routine and still no luck… Im at a loss of what to do. I’ve tried everything and every workout I can think of. Clearly genetics play a large role, but there has to be something to make them grow. Any ideas or advice?
