My chest is the only body part, that tends to flatten out and soften, when i train it only 1x per week, and no matter how many sets, how hard i train, how heavy i go, my chest recovers very, very, very, rapidly,notice how many x's i said very, its only sore for 2 days...i think i have that type of body that i can train chest 2x per week, one day 4-5 sets of incline, and 4 sets 6-10reps of flats the next session....spacing my chest workouts 72-96 hours apart...what can you guys say about this? thanx oh ya, my diet is perfecto.

 If you really want to do your chest twice a week, I would do that every other week for a while. Your chest muscles may be able to handle the workout but watch out for shoulder problems. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Go ahead and work your chest twice a week! I have the same problem, once a week is not enough. But only train your shoulders once a week. If you do any more for shoulders, you could overtrain them. And on your second chest day, do different exercise to shock the muscles. ---------------------------------------- Train...........................(S)mart IP: Logged |

I do chest, shoulders and back twice a week. I see results too. I do not have a light day either. I feel that you either have to lift heavy or go home. I also feel that intensity as well as good form plays a huge role in gaining mass. I think you could even do more sets than that on chest day. I know I do and I am doing just fine. incline Hit it hard, quick and get out. IP: Logged |

What do you guys think about hammer as aposed to barbell, and dumbell? I get a killer pump of hammer, but does it actually build as well. IP: Logged |

I work everything with less than a week between. I work 5 days on, 1 day off. So it's 6 days rather than a week. But on arm day, I do pump sets for chest and shoulders.. nothing heavy... just get it pumped. And on chest and shoulders day, I pump arms. 5 sets of 12-15 slow, concentrated reps. Pumps it up, feels good. Doesn't work it too hard. Still ready to go by the next heavy work day. IP: Logged |

davidg, hammers are a great excercise and they do build good too. At least I think so. I do them just about every time I hit arms. IP: Logged |

Dude, i am definitly a supporter of benching twice a week. but you totally have to space them out. i normally do, day one 8-10 reps for 4 sets of medium to light weight then on the 2nd bench day i do 8 sets of 2 reps at weight with a slight pause at the bottom. it has worked wonders. i don't know what im going to name it yet though IP: Logged |
