What is the best excercise ?

[Jnic103]

What do you think is the best chest exercise for chest size and mass in reguards to strenght?

Well is it "size". "mass", or "strength"? Make up your mind. Either way, the answer is flat bench w/ a straightbar.

Let me see .... <scratches head> ... pec deck? No, that's not it ... could it be cable cross overs? No that's not it either .... BENCH PRESS! That could be it! I'll bet that's it!

also incline presses for the lower pecs.

I disagree but this discussion should be posted in the training forum. That's why there's a training forum. That said, the best chest exercsie for "size" would be dumb bell presses, not flat bench. Flat bench is best for strenght, not size.

I couldnt disagree more. I think that while the barbell bench press has its place, it is more of an ego lift than anything else. I know, at least for me, that when i use flat bench in my chest routine, my chest does not grow as quickly.
Inlcine bench presses seem much more useful. However I personally like incline dumbell presses. They seem to spark the most growth in my chest, as well as developing my inner chest nicely due to the nice squeeze you get at the top. But not everything works the same for everyone of course.

Any pressing movement with big weights will do.
Give heavy weighted dips a try and watch your chest expand big time.
