Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below i have been digging around old threads trying to develop a good chest workout. i feel my lower and lower outter chest needs much more sculpting and defined look. i read of hitting 25 sets of chest on various exercises starting at 6 reps heavy weight going up to 12 lighter weight. i heard omegas chest workout is great, but couldnt find the actaull routine. what are some things you guys are doing. not my recovery is fast due to some aas that i add. thanks!
chest

Are you trying to target the lower and outer chest regions?
I'd go with dips, weighted dips (do em with elbows out and go all the way down but only half way yp)
Wide grip flat bench, wide grip decline bench.
25 sets is way too much pushing
i only do 8 to 10 sets for chest
stick to inclines and flat pressing
decline is a waste
Max-OT and Dogcrapp training helped my chest tremendously

I was thinking only 8-10 sets, but then I reas Max-OT lol
I think Max-OT is not very appropriate for people who are just starting up IMO
And decline is not a waste....decline bench, perhaps, but you need to develop the lower chest...it's just as important as upper chest
I do 15 sets for chest. Nothing less. I have discovered that my body grows a heck of a lot more on higher to high volume training.
I do 8-10 sets of heavy lifting.
Followed by 4 sets of very light, high rep sets.
I'm moving into 5 rep sets for power while on abombs and until the end of my cycle.

Anything lower than 6-8 reps and unless I'm doing power exercises, I dnt get a pump
im sure you get a pump with one rep
with all that adrol running thru your veins
i used to get pumps in my forearms from carrying
a grocery bag 20 ft.

I do a min of 15 sets on my chest routine
how many navy seals look like
professional bodybuilders?
they are lean and in shape but not usually
bodybuilder size
volume training had its place
but newbs should stick to a few sets
with heavy weight to build muscle

I think volume is underrated. look at me. I do volume training.
controlled volume=good
more is better volume=overtraining

Im likin omegas chest routine - I never experienced pain like that in a workout! only been 2 weeks tho, feelin bigger but that may be the DBol

Your a genetic freak of nature...on ABombs
I think volume is WAY over rated. Go into any gym, at least around here, and everyone is doing set after set every training session 5-6 days a week. I think a lot of bros would be surprised how much muscle they would gain off of a higher intensity lower volume approach. More is not better...Better is better.

Yea, benching without a partner is not recommended, even in a power rack. Doing the liftoff yourself is a very good way to gradually tear up your shoulders. I'd recommended you just use dumbells.

you'd be surprised how many people actually GROW like BEASTs on Volume Training
It's a matter of how your body recuperates and what it feels comfortable with.
im sure those abombs help with the volume
unfortunately to much volume wont help the kid dosing 10mg of creatine a day
better to undertrain than overtrain IMO

Can you define "high intesity lower volume?" What makes it higher intensity? Lower rest times between sets? Heavier weight?

I dnt do VERY high volume. Not like I'm doing muscular endurance. My workouts are very intense. I do moderately high-er volume, but I still lift pretty damn heavy

Come on...
That was an example of high intensity exercises combined with high volume. If a bodybuilder had to run 5 miles a day and then swim a mile every other day and then hit 20 sets of pushups and dips .... they wouldn't be able to compete. But volume doesnt cause that, it calories burned that causes that

IMHO overtraining is what's overrated
I kinda fall between what you and Rage are saying.

I would suggest that if your recovering from a shoulder injury to stay away from barbells(except for close grip bench)....and just do dumbell or hammer strength machine work until you think your back up to 100%....You can still grow and increase strength pushing yourself with dumbells.
Since you dont work with a partner and you probobly cant push the weight you'd like to.... What I do is......I switch the order of my excercises up every week
For example: Week 1
DB Incline
DB Decline
Seated Flys
CLose Grip Bench
Week 2
DB Flat
DB Decline
DB incline
Cable flys
I competed for a few years and it was hard to always have a partner....changing it up every week help me to really push myself.....at 152lbs I was pressing 365lbs(that was before gear)....Hope this helps
