Chest ain't growin

Don't even bother with the Smith machine for chest gains. Exclusively do DB if you don't have a bar and a bench

>>40151250
yeah but what the fuck am I doing wrong, man?

>>40151229
Try flies
You also might just be too weak and not lifting heavy enough

>>40151285
fuck you may be right. I thought 50 lbs dumbbells were impressive but I guess not.

Are you talking about standing flies or bench flies?

anon the classic bench press is the solution. this is the absolutely best exercise for your pecs.

>>40151229
>Hello gyno my old friend

yeah I'd say classic bench is way to go if it was an option

also 1pl8 classic bench is decent for newbie gains but bigger chest is closer to bodyweight and beyond it

when you say you are benching 45 on each side do you mean your ass is parallel to the floor and you are pushing two 45s horizontally?

The hair seems to be growing

>>40151336
I don't take steroids

>>40151358
I'm laying on a bench and pushing the 45s up lmao

>>40151229
Probably very shit nutrition. But you need to fucking cut. Focus on your chest once your abs become visible

>>40151376
Obviously

>>40151229

Try

- Flat barbell bench
- Incline bench
- Dumbbell flyes
- Dips

That worked for me.

>>40151440
do I really have gyno?

>>40151229
What's that game on the poster on the back?

>>40151476
No, but you have some huge nipples brah.

don't lie, anon.

DID I GET GYNO FROM PUBERTY OR ARE YOU LADS FUCKIN WITH ME ;_;

>>40151494
Corpse party

>>40151277
You're weak. Won't have a good chest pushing 50lb dumbbells unless you're a skinny 5'6 Manlet or something. Start complaining when you're at at least 70.

>>40151616
love when people call me weak. My favorite motivation

>>40151654
Good I started a month ago already do 65lb dB press.

>>40151516
you do not have gyno

>>40151667
Nice. I hope to increase to that size soon.

But truly, in a blind image of myself, do I really have a tit problem or am I just fucking fat?

>>40151687
My tits are twice that size. These fags say geno on literally every picture. You would think it affects every 1 in 5 adult males the way /fit talks

>>40151229
Make sure you're punching your shoulder blades together too while doing Dumbell presses so you're hitting more chest than front delts

>>40151682
Thank fuck

Sure I am a fat ass and am 23. All I did before was eat fastfood, chinese food, indian food, pizza, burger king, white castles.

Shocking my body with the gym these months has showed me how fucking weak I am.

I was seriously fucking weak, and even though I've grown just a bit to just activate my muscles to learn to lift more than an eggroll,it's been fucking crazy to me to know how weak I was before, and how I still am.

So much to learn and a lot to grow. This mountain of fitness is fun. You should've seen my chest 4 months back. Just a saggy ugly mess.

>>40151398

do more weight, don't ask about chest again until you can do bench your bodyweight or 2pl8

>>40151516
Shave and do diamond pushups. Ur using the wronf muscles to bench

>>40151703
should I be pinching my shoulder blades the entire duration of my presses?

>>40151708
Ok.

>>40151716
Never heard of those. I can only imagine those diamond pushups can only help me grow so much, though.

>>40151706
Nauh those are small tits. I have actual tits. Shit sucks not even really fat. Maybe 20 more lbs to lose. Had to take a asthma steroid all through childhood. I think prednisone. That's what I'm blaming. Gonna lose the weight before doctor

>>40151766
goodluck senpai

>>40151229
You either have
> shitty genetics
>low testosterone/high estrogen
>bad diet

Or all three
Eat better food junk food is full of estrogen

Workout harder use heavier weights/high reps hit EVERY body part not just glamour muscles (use pre workout and protein shakes+creatine)

Look up ways to boost test naturally and get big anon no more excuses

>>40153554
both my parents come from generations with big chest muscles. My dad has good pecs and my mom's side are 6'2 construction workers with great bodies.
I just need to go heavier.

I do pre-workout and the shakes. No creatine since it causes balding.

Try benching 250 for reps, 235 on incline, and 90 pound weighted dips.

Because that also apparently doesn't make your chest grow either.

>>40153582
>No creatine since it causes balding.

Falling for the meme kills your gains.

I had a shitty chest and the routine that made my chest great again was

10x10 Weighted dips
10x10 Landmine chest press
10x10 Diamond press ups (real slow)

I did this for twice a week for just over 10 weeks, basically till i burnt out.

Also i think these exercises are hard to fuck up form wise in comparison to the bench, where i probably used my triceps a lot more than i should have

>>40151687

yeah anon its not like gyno effects 22.5% of the male population over the age of 18

land mine press everyday for sickening chest like this one

>>40151331
Nah I bench between 80-90 pound dumbells and my chest still looks like shit.

>>40151229
You won't notice chest size difference till like 1.5 pl8 bench.

Looks like nothing is growing except for that gyno

>>40151229
Start doing push ups to failure after every chest set you do.
Started doing that after meeting a male stripper at female friends party who had the biggest chest I had ever seen. All he ever did for his chest were push-ups, LOTS of it.

>>40153582
>both my parents have big chest muscles

My mom is 5' dad 5'8 never lifted a day in their lives average bodies/ weight etc

I'm 6'1 215 very low bf athletic
And I had the smallest baby chest when I first started a year ago at 175 lb

Go harder on chest do 100-200 push ups a day on top your workout

Unless you have muscular dystrophy if you workout a muscle it will grow..

>>40151229
shave the hair its hiding gainz

>>40151229
Its all about the flies brah, my chest wouldnt grow for shit.

Started doing incline and decline bench, with incline flies for upper and cable flies to focus on my lower pecs. Machine flys for middle. You gotta squeeeeeeze and contract your chest on the flies, youll make it anon. Trust me.

i have pretty much the exact same amount of body hair as op in the exact same places. should I shave or trim? does it get itchy? how much will it affect my ability to see gains?

>>40151516
If you want to fuck twink , for the love of gods don't shave ;)

>>40151229
In my experience as a skeletor, Bench didnt do SHIT for my chest. Pushups, dumbell press flat/incline, and sitting flies on the machine. You have to do enough reps to where it feels like theyre gonna BUst, not a pussy shit.

>>40154608
help me thats my body right now with a bit fatter lower back, how much would I have to cut? my traps and lats are bigger too

>>40151229
bruh, been doing bodyweight for a month now, and i see a huge difference in chest and arms.

M8...

>>40151229
>When pressing, make sure to always have shoulders behind your chest.
>Elbows at 45 degrees
>When you are pressing, try to bring your biceps together and not by just pushing your hands upwards.
Done.

>>40157380
anyone?

>>40158667

Creatine causes you to have more DHT so yes it does cause balding

>>40159055
I swear that said pissing. So ima try that evrry time i piss

>>40151516
You don't have gyno, just shitty chest genetics. I have the same, shit sucks.

>>40151229
How long have you been working out? I started out lifting the 30 lbs dumbbells and took me a year to get to lift the 85 lbs ones. Right now i am lifting the 90's. T. 5'8 170 lbs manlet on bulk mode.
