Pectorals

Friday, June 30, 2006 5:50 PM
I need bigger pecs! I've been working for some time now... And I have gained so little in my pecs. I've gained a little... But it depresses me to say it... I've also gained some fat around my nipples. I need to get bigger pecs becuase right now I look weird with a six pack nice big arms and nice big shoulders... But no chest! Please, I need some help. Does anyone know some really good chest work outs? Right now all I do to work my chest is push ups and bench press. Help please. Thanks, -SuperCoolFool. Edit: I'd also like to know how to lose the fat around my nipples...?

start doing incline and in a month you'll see some difference. the internet is full of good chest workouts. i just did mine today - it looked like this: incline bench 12x145 10x160 8x175 flat bench 12x185 10x205 8x225 incline db flies 40x12x3 its really up to you and what you feel comfortable with. just remember to squeeze the muscles on the way up and really work on focusing the lift on the pecs, even if it means doing the bench press with just the bar. lastly, keep in mind that building any muscle is going to take time. work it hard, then let it rest, eat right, and get plenty of sleep and you should see gains, just dont expect them over night. good luck bro.

That fat around the nipples could be gynocemastia. Or it could just be extra fat, which you'd need to work on your diet to get rid of. If all you're doing for chest has been flat bench and pushups, then your chest workout definitely needs more exercises- Incline press and weighted dips is what I'd suggest.

Oh jesus... I really hope it's just fat and not Gynecomastia.

SCF, Do a few sets dumbbell flyes, incline and cable cross-overs. Many people suggest pullovers to help expand the ribcage, however, I know many people who feel this is not possible. You may consider widening your grip on the bench to put more emphasis on the pecs, and less on the shoulders and triceps. Another exercises that seems to help is doing a bench press, but taking it down to your Adams Apple, forcing the chest muscle to take on a greater load. My workout partner has huge arms that do most of the work during chest exercises, his chest development is far behind his arms. I have the opposite problem, I have a 58" chest and 18" arms. My chest takes over for my triceps in all pressing movements. Even though 18" arms are big, they look small on someone with a huge chest. Fat around the nipples is relatively common for pubescent boys due to the rapid increase in hormones. This will more than likely go away on it's own, as your body's chemistry finds a balance. However, this may make you more susceptible to this condition if you choose to use steroids in the future (hopefully you won't). Many of my Friends over the years have battled this problem, often ending up with very painful surgery, all of them were the result of steroid abuse. Keep up the good work. With respect Intense

i always had problems with small pecs in HS. and gaining fat is going to happen with bulking diets. but ive noticed a dramatic change in 5 months of serious lifting. i recommend changing ur workout routines every two months to shock ur muscles into growth, if you keep the same routines ur muscle will get used to the workout and u wont see as good of results compared to if u did change it up. also, pushups arent too good for gaining mass becuz u are only using ur own bodyweight. if u want to gain mass, i recommend using free weights and progressively adding more and more, while hitting all regions of your pecs every time(flat bench, incline, decline, flys, etc.). also, dont overtrain! i stick with 12-16 sets every chest workout(that much is still pushing it.), once a week. all of this has proved to yield good results for me.
Age: 21 Wt: 178(156 as of 3/06) Ht: 5'11" I like to lift weights. Sups: ON 100% Whey Gold, Cold Fusion.

I need some size on my pecs too. I'm going to try to pre-exhaust it before doing compound movements to make sure that the pecs get a full workout instead of having my shoulders and triceps taking over for it.
