Form is pretty good but hard to say what volume you doing?
whats your volume on this? full on

 

[YoreyC]

you mean how many sets and reps?

everything is 10 reps.

i generally do 3 or 4 sets. 3 is for workouts that generally feel pretty hard and exhausting, like squats and reverse lunges. or, if im randomly really tired cuz maybe i drank too much or hit a new PR. basically if i need too long of a rest (more than 6 minutes), i do 3 instead of 4. rarely i have done 2

i do warmups for about 4 min. 3 minutes of cooldown after session.

 

[YoreyC]

fly doesn't feel right. feels like a shoulder workout more than chest. and its easy at the weight im doing.

That's an issue right there as is that.

In a previous thread a member was doing 12 reps on everything. Which immediately suggested that the weights were too light and they weren't pushing all that hard.

Then to throw in doing less cos you've drunk too much... c'mon.

If every set is 10 reps then how hard are you training? At the very least the last set should be a grind and 10 reps should be crazy hard.

Form check. Sorry I'm not gonna watch a bunch of videos unless I'm coaching you. And given the above I suspect part of the reason you're not 'feeling it' is cos you stopped at 10 etc

So use more weight. C'mon. And what are the weights?

 

[Slyderkt]

I never recommend dumbell flys.
To easy to tear up your shoulder.
Speaking from experience. If you have to do them, do them laying on the floor. This keeps you from going deep. Pec deck is much safer. Or cable machine.
Try lowering your arms and or elbows. Too high takes out the chest and makes it all shoulder.
Atleast that is true for me.
Everyone is built different. You have to work around until you find your mind muscle connection.

Also turn your thumbs out more and see if that activates chest
