is this chest workout ok????

110%

New member
i am doin this chest workout trying to bulk up and increase strength, the problem is i dont really feel it in my chest. i only take 1 minute break in between and lift intensely goin to failure with about 75% of the sets on each exercise. i dont know what do u think here is the routine.

----flat bench barbell press: 5 X 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 (weight increased by 5 lbs each time, forced reps used when needed to get rep amount)
----incline bench press: 4 X 6, 6, 5, 4 (weight increased by 5 lbs each tiem)
----incline dumbell press: 4 X 6 (weight stays, try to do as many as posssible, around 4-7 each time)
----flat bench dumbell flyes: 4 X 10 (nice easy stretch)

what do u think????
also today i worked chest and for some reason my bench was much harder about 3 less reps for each set. could the reason be that i just took a week off for vacation, came back lifted for about 4 weeks, but had to take another week off cuz i got my wisdom teeth pulled,also for about 3 days had to eat soft not too great stuff, would this hurt me that much??????
 
Y'know, i completely agree.

Drop all inclines, reduce sets to 2 sets each and throw in some weighted dips.

6 sets total.
 
Why do people have this sudden love for declines? There's more people that have trouble developing their upper chest than their lower chest. Inclines also help develop stronger shoulders which can be used for a stronger bench. What are declines good for? Declines in my opinion are also quite akward.
 
yeah, i can handle more weight on a decline bench, but i find the flat bench a better exercise....a keeper in all my mass routines.

if i were you buddy, i would do only 2-3 exercises for your chest.
i do:
flat bech presses 4 sets of 6-10
incline flyes 3 sets o f8-10

both to failure......up to you, find out which works best for you, then cut out one, 4 is overtraining to me....and most people on here, as or not!
 
Way too many lifts. There's no way you can be 110% balls-to-the-walls intense on every set with that much volume. Limit yourself to like 7 sets total for chest, and put everything you have into each set like it is the last set you will ever do. Here's what my chest day looks like:

Flat Barbell 2 warm-ups / 8, 6, 4
Incline Dumbbell: 3 X 8
Flat or Incline Flye: 2 X 8 to 12
 
way overtraining!!!

1-2 sets per exercise, 2 exercises per body part, done to failure!! 2 body parts per workout, 30 minutes per workout!!

At least 5 days before woring the same bodypart again!!!
 
u guys are always saying overtraining, but when i do this much i dont even get sore really. also when i look in bodybuilding magazines always sample routines by bodybuilders r usually like 4 exerscises, 4 sets each. y would they do this if it is overtraining??????
