Do you concentrate in scapular retraction? Squeeze those shoulder blades together, use dumbbells and really stretch at the bottom and don't fully extend at the top- keep tension in your pecs the whole movement. That and weighted dips- make sure you are contracting your pecs at the top and holding the contraction as long as you can on the way down. Those two things helped me a lot.Thanks, @FuriousWO and @brutus79. I've fallen in love with my back days. Shoulders and arms are naturally there for me. Back takes some work but it's there. Legs...well I get tired of buying jeans. My chest absolutely sucks, though. It's improved a little, but at this point, I've come down to the realization that it will always be weak and the only thing I can do is diet so that I can have a lean enough core to make it pop.
No, I have always focused squeezing at the top. That makes sense though, as the inner part of my chest seems hard and it is softer as it goes outward.Do you concentrate in scapular retraction?

Looking good bro! I like seeing guys in my age group nailing it. It keeps me motivated.Got a ways to go, but it's all about accountability(you guys)...View attachment 24945View attachment 24946
