Chest development problem 24 February 2010 13:01 (permalink)
Hello all.
 
I am having a slight problem with my pecs. The centre part of my chest  where my pecs meet are developing / developed as are the middle and upper part of my pecs but the outerside of my pecs (next to my armpits) seem to be really lagging. Is this normal?
Here is what I normally do for chest.
Flat Bench 4x8
Incline BB Bench 3 x 8
Incline DB Flys 3 x 8-12
****or****
Incline DB Bench 3x8
 
 
Any ideas?!?!?!

    keep training and progressing

    the only way the chest shows all the conotours and 'inner/outer/uppers/lowers' is when there is more size to it.

    a balloon with no air shows no shape.

    i had a torrid time with my inner/outer/upper/lower chest and no amount of direct focus would bring it up.

    Alas, once i added a good 20-30lbs of lean mass these areas showed more.

    BF% also has a role to play as excess baggage around the pecs will blur any definition. Drop the bf% and it all becomes more clear to see the shape of the muscle group.

    Keep at it, the more mass you have inside the muscle belly, the greater the contours it will have and show

      good piece of advice as i too suffered with this problem i was carrying a bit too much weight and when i lost aboult 6lbs the chest seemed more fuller an more defined.  once the overall pec developes the outer part should become more complete.

        ok cheers fellas. Just wondering if I was missing something or doing something wrong. Will just keep at it and see how it goes. Overall I am happy with the rest of my chest but I suppose it is the curse of the body builder always finding a problem - or is that just me ;-)

            I agree with IB's first post, my chest lagged behind for ages and it simply took time and consistent hard work to bring it up. It just develops over time mate...
