Pressing for mass and development

[WannaBPowerful]

I wanna start a thread to pick up some tips tricks or whatever you guys have. Lookin for chest development.

If you have a trick or tip for developing your chest, please list it.

What are your opinions on:

Pausing at the bottom of flat or incline bench (without resting it on your chest, still holding 100% of the weight) possibly a millimeter or two off your chest?

As of now i definatly go all the way up and all the way down in a slow and controlled manner, incorporating NO MOMENTUM what so ever.

Wider grip when benching?

Hammer Strength machines i LOVE. Its like right between a press and a fly. How about you?


Do you use supersets? If so, for what exercises?

Do you pre-esxhaust the chest? To what extent? ( how many sets and reps, what exercises before you press)

Do you cycle between periods (weeks) of low-medium-high rep workouts?

Train chest twice a week?

ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF PLEASE ADD AND COMMENT ON!!! ID EVEN APPRECIATE A REPLY STATING THAT YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH SOMETHING, JUST SO I CAN GET MORE REINFORCMENTS ON PRINCIPALS AND IDEAS. THANX

Doing incline first on chest day

Pause for about 1 sec at bottom of rep

Try burnouts were you run the rack all the way down

Go at a slower pace without momentum....

I do flat, incline & decline every chest day; mixing up the order and always challenging with heavier weights, even if only by 5 lbs. Then on days where I feel exceedingly good, or, just have the time I will do supersets on the fly's. My gym only goes up to 75lb d-bells, for now, so I start w/ 75 then 70, 65, 60, then 35, 30 and 25's start with 10 reps then all I can do with each weight no breaks between weights. I give myself around 5 min to recoup. then hit it again. Usually 3 sets like this and I am cooked!!
