What exercise do you use to start your chest workout? I know its kind of a stupid question but I've always started with flat bench but I'm wondering what kind of success people have with other exercises.
Absolutely kills my workout if i do it within like 3 hours of going to the gym. Interesting idea of doing dips first though; i've never done them anything but lastFurious masturbation.
A few rotator cuff exercises
Same here; I like to switch it up every workout.I change it every week...
that is one great avy bro:thumbsup: Incline hammer chest pressincline bench - my upper pecs need a lot of work
Only if you are lowering the bar to your clavicle with your elbows flared out. Other wise, the bench press is a great triceps and shoulder exercise.Flat bench - the main exercise for chest. You need all your strength for it
Totally agree.Flat bench - the main exercise for chest. You need all your strength for it
is that where you get your protien. :rofl: j/kI start with the dumbell presses. As a side note to dsade's comment, I like my masturbation post-workout
Same hereStraight bench. I like to get it out of the way first.
I see a lot of talk about doing incline first for upper chest development...Hasn't it been proven you cannot isolate lower, mid and upper chest? All incline does is bring front delts into the movement more.
Dsade, he said for chest, not forearm and wrist. Unless you masturbate a lot differently than I do.Furious masturbation.
Not much new in there, but a good read nonetheless.Here is a good read about benchpressing...study on if you can isolate upper, mid and lower chest

I've read conflicting views on "shocking" the muscles. I think progressive overload is more important...I switch it up from starting with flat to incline, and from barbell to dumbbell. Keep shocking the muscles. Pretty much anybody you will come in contact with that is the least bit informed, will change it up.
Take a look at this article, it gives a way to isolate mid chest

"Your body is built for survival. When doing a bench press it doesn't know that your goal is to build a big chest. All it knows is that a big ass weight is trying to crush you and if you don't lift it you'll die."
Nice article, thanks for posting,and love that quote from it as well.
