Chest not growing

[AndsX]

So i have been working out for the last 6 months and i think my chest is not growing like the rest of the body. I can see differences in my shoulders, arms, legs but not the chest.

I workout Chest on Monday and Friday and increaed weight almost consistently.

I do Barbell BP 3-4 sets of 10-8 reps and Inclinde Dumbell Press on Monday's

Firday - Barbell BP 3-4 sets of 10-8 reps and Crossoever Flys

Can you plz throw in some suggestions to grow the chest

Thanks.

Your grip could be to close on bp.
Personally I do less reps heavier weight 5 to 8
add some weighted dips at the end of a chest routine.

Crossovers? if they are cable get away from them stay with the basics they will do more for you.

I think i am gripping it right. May be i'll add dips to my workout and see how it goes.

Before Bench Press? Would it help

You could do some before or after, so say you just finished flat bench, immediatley after do some pushups with perfect form and slow negatives, you could even do a few sets. I actually was on a major plateau when it came to advancing strength and size on the chest so i took advice from a vet, he told me to substitute my standard chest routine with different variations of pushups. Turns out after about a month my chest seemed more solid and my bench actually went up. If you would like some different pushup exercises let me know ive got about 7 or 8.

Push Ups for a big chest.... OK. What are your stats and lifts like bro? That is another example of poor advice.

I'll have to ask an IFBB Pro or a Natl level PL how many push-ups they do .... per year....zero. LOL. If you want a tiny chest do some push-ups.

Do heavy bench 2-3x a week. Don't have a 'chest' day... we don't grow a body part at a time. Look into the 5x5. It is a great start for where you are in your lifting carrer. Cable Crossovers are best left to the ladies and the worthless Personal Trainers. Once you are HUGE you can play. Till then you need to be putting in work a the gym.

How about Cable Crossovers on a Swiss Ball?

The only thing I would put on a swiss ball is a swiss girl. Height would actually be decent.

you could also try scaring your muscles when they least expect it. This time of year is perfect too, go hit up some haunted houses these next few weeks and shock those muscles into growing an extra couple inches bro.

That's weak bro. I threaten them at gunpoint. I swear to god after yelling at them with a .45, I got mad pumpzzz at the gym. You gotta shoot every once in a while though, or they'll get used to it.

do 45 sets of cheat curls with an ez curl bar, thatll make your chest explode.

seriously though, just read the stickies.

You guys know nothing. You can just lift 1 week out of the month blindfolded. Your muscles don't know WTF is going on.
