My chest routine......

Take a peak at this.

Flat BB
Warm up
3 sets of 6-8
1 set of 3-6

Incline DB
3 sets of 6-8
1 set of 3-6

And here's where I get kinda stumped. I want to add a fly here. Would it be ok to add two sets of flat fly's and then two sets of incline fly's? So twelve sets total for chest? I know most of you HATE cables. Well I kinda like doing them. But REALLY heavy. I dunno. I might just wipe out that last set of 3-6 on the other movements. And then make it 3 sets of BB, 3 sets of DB, 2 sets of Incline Fly, and 2 sets of flat fly. Hmmmmm. I'm just now getting used to doing flat fly's.
 
heres my chest routine:

Incline bench press: 3 sets of 8
Flat bench press: 3 sets of 8
Machine Peck flies: 3 sets of 8
Incline dumbell press: 3 sets of 8

i think this works just fine, im starting to notice a real difference in my chest since i started using this routine.
 
Really, it is not necessary to perform flyes.

If you do, choose one and alternate each week: Here is an example:

Workout #1
Bench Presses - 3 x 6-8, then 1 x 3-6
Incline DB Presses - 3 x 8
Dumbbell Flyes - 2 x 8-10

Workout #2
Incline Barbell Presses - 3 x 6-8, then 1 x 3-6
Dumbell Presses - 3 x 8
Incline DB Flyes - 2 x 8-10

Workout #3
Incline Dumbbell Presses - 3 x 8
Decline Barbell Presses - 3 x 8-10
Parallel Dips - 2 x 8
 
I think it very good.

I would add in a very delbrate and slow form of cable fly after your Incline Work
 
IMO, flyes are far inferior to pressing movements and dips. Plus, they can injure the shoulders. I just don't think there's a reason to do them.

Empty wallet you know I subscribe to the lower volume end of things. I don't do DC training 100% of the time. When I'm not, I do something like this for chest:

Dips - 2 x 6
Incline Press - 1 x 8 + rest-pause for more reps

Not counting warmup sets... but then again I don't do chest in one day, the entire one day would be a push day and look like this:

Dips - 2 x 6
Incline Press - 1 x 8 + RP
Close-grip bench - 1 x 8
Seated overhead press - 2 x 8
L-fly (rotator cuff work) - 1 x 10

With the goal being to add weight to the bar every week. With higher intensity this is enough to thoroughly devastate the muscles while training within their ability to recouperate.
