This is what I do, it works well for me for size and strength. This is what I do.
Weeks1-6 Bench Press(2sets)Closegrip Incline(2 sets) dips(2sets)
Weeks 7-12 Incline Press(sets)Closegrip Bench(2sets) dips(2sets)
Weeks 13 and 14 Dumbell Flat Bench(2sets)Dumbell Incline(2sets)
dips(2sets)
Week 15-take all week off
Week 16-start over at week 1
I use periodization on all of chest exercises except the dips I always keep at sets of 10's and the last two weeks when I use dumbells I do sets of 20's to get good and burnt. When I use periodization for example my weeks of bench would go like this as far as reps go: Week1-12reps,week2-10reps,week3-8reps,week4-6reps,Week5-5reps,week6-3reps. The same would go for my closegrip incline for those 6 weeks. Then I would switch over to Incline and closegrip bench for 6 weeks and the reps once again would start at 12 and go down. I know two sets doesnt sound like a lot for each exercise but it works for me. Hell, this wednesday on my chest day I benched 295 for two sets of five and I only weigh about 180-185 and Im all natural. Im pleased with the results.
