Over the next few months I really want to focus on growing my chest more. Its not that its lagging, I just want to add size to it. Anyone have any suggestions. Should I start trying to hit it twice a week? Should I try and do a day of chest only and just do tons of sets? Reps, range and etc. Also, I have been doing DC for a long time but plan on changing. I appreciate any suggestions.
 
I recently started doing dips like this and I really like them. Don't bend your elbows and flex your chest to lift back up. Hang a few plates from your waist once you get the feel for it. It's one of the only chest exercises that I really feel the contraction.

You know, I was just thinking about throwing dips in this week. I used to do them but have not in years. I think i will try getting them back in my workout.
 
I wish I could cut some leg and put it on my chest. I've been seeing really steady changes with a whole new chest split. I don't touch bench anymore for one. I exhaust my chest on hammer incline machine to failure for 3 sets of 12. At 12, with a spotter, I pucker up and pump out another 10 partial reps to really engorge the chest. Insane pumps but at least now I feel my chest is catching up to my front delts.

I'm not sure what your doing now for chest but i think anytime you hit a wall its good to do totaly new exercises for that body part. With that being said I like to do dips with someone behind me holding my feet out so im on a nice angle.

What are you doing for chest now brutha?
 
Doing anything different will help, rest pause, half reps really heavy, pin presses, floor presses, weighted dips, reverse grip presses

I have been doing DC for months now if not the last year or more. For some reason i respond well to DC. I might change up and start a different routine. Right now doing DC my two chest exercises are Flat Smith Press and Incline Dumbell Press on the separate days. I thought about throwing in a second exercise even on the DC routine.
