Suggestions for Upper Chest

[CAswole]

I trained today with your question in mind. Give this a shot.

-Low Incline DB Press (15deg) up to 1 heavy 12-15 rep set focusing on elbow arc, not pressing the weight

-Smith guillotine 3x12 (Bar to clavicle, do NOT go heavy too quickly and do not do this regularly!)

-Incline barbell 3x12

-Cable Flyes (highest pulley, slight lean forward, flye down to your chest level) 3x8-12

-Lying HS Press 4x8-12 (sub seated flat Press is you don’t have the lay down one)

-Pec Deck (no back arch, scapula retracted as always) 2x12

Chest press machine 5x15 (bonus, just extra pump).

This seems like a lot but the number of working sets is relatively low for us juiced folks.

I like the decline press sometimes. Decline gets no respect . I've done exercises just by themselves at times to see the effect. Meaning see where the soreness comes in vs doing 5 exercises and not being sure. My chest gets very sore and good work from decline movements. Also gives my shoulders a break

Glass Press and Incline Flies with your upper back off the bench.

First is great as a finisher or supersetted with said flies.
