Chest getting bigger but thats it

[eric22]

What are your thoughts on not doing any chest at all? When I trained chest hard and my bf was higher it looked silly. I think I store almost all my fat in my stomach and chest and add any size to the chest along with the fat and its a bad look. If I could add some more size anywhere else it would balance it out and then I could try and gain a lot more weight.

Youre still pretty small, dont worry, youll fill out with time.

No, don't try an isolate an area. Stick to FULLBODY lifts, make sure you work everything. Don't create a weakness for yourself intentionally. I wouldn't *focus* on chest, but don't neglect it either. Try switching to Incline BP, or weighted dips. Will bring up shoulders/arms/upperchest.

Also keep in mind that everyone's chest is different. My lower, outer and inner pec develope very fast, but my upper pecs are a weak point. Maybe focus on Incline bench over flat bench.

My chest has always been one of the first things to blow up after coming from a layoff, and I've never had a great connection to it when doing chest exercises nor do I usually get any kind of decent pump in it.

Thanks guys
Incline bench seems to be a popular choice so I will go with that. Now would it best to keep it at a 45 degree angle or is that more like working shoulders twice if you are doing db shoulder presses as well?

I would do 30 degrees....the higher the angle the less it works your chest.
