hey guys, i was wondering how to build up my chest (inside, and top) my bottom and side (by arms) is pretty good size since i do alot of bench presses.
So what is the best workout to build up upper, and inside chest??

Different angled bench presses and dumbell benches help for a greater range of motion, also do weighted dips.

Variety man, variety! I start with flat barbell bench for 2 or 3 sets then I move to decline bench for 2-3 and then finish off with incline for 3. Then on another day of the week I do the same but with dumbells, the key thing with dumbells is to bring them as far down as you can.

Hey man, yea.. like No Quarter said... variety is nice. A kind of best of both worlds might be for you to have a A and B Chest routine that you alternate from, something like -
Routine A
Incline Barbell Bench Presses
Flat DB Bench Presses
Incline DB Flyes
Routine B
Flat Barbell Bench Presses
Incline DB Bench Presses
Flat DB Flyes
You could one or another week to week or whatever. The incline work will help the upper, along with the flyes for the inner. Your not really neglecting anything with doing the A and B as well... and your getting nice variety.

you can also try flat bech press but bring it down to your neck and keep your elbows out. When you do this make sure to drop some weight and have complete control over the bar/weights, and always use a spotter. I've gotten very nice results on my chest, specially upper chest with this.

Also try to try to do incline and flat with slower reps. Dont run away from the burn, run to it!

ya i do it slowly, well not quick, but the problem is that benching doesnt work my chest that much, only thing that does is butterflys, but i dont have the machine, and dont have gym membership.

i think alternating between barbell incline and dumbbell incline is good. Decline is real good too.
