are pyramid sets the fastest way to build a chest? pic related. :(
>>42801124
just do a shit tonne of pullups and pushups to build the anterior chest strength and then deadlift for your ego chest push/pull strength.
high volume chest work will do the job
i'm talking 50reps+ range. 5x10, 10x5, 10x10 etc

pyramid set plan im trying are:
1x10 @ 55%
1x8 @ 65%
1x6 @ 75%
1x4 @ 85%
1x3 @ 88.5%
1x2 @ 92.5%
1x6 @ 75%

>anterior chest strength

any more advice?
are you implying your chest is your weakest attest
sorry to bust your balls but youre small everywhere. There is no magic trick just go out and train hard
>>42801124
going to the gym is probably the fastest for you friend

Pyramid is a meme. Stick to 8 rep sets. Those extra few reps at lower weight don't do shit. Just do more sets of 8 with a higher weight and reap the gains.
You should aim for 120 reps of chest work a week. Split this among flat and incline bench.

you need to do a reverse pyramid otherwise you'll have a huge waist and tiny shoulders

ive been doing a PHUL plan with 4x8 and 4x6, which is only 56 reps of chest per week. i guess this is why im failing so hard? ive been stuck at ~160 pound bench for months.

just bench 3 times a week dont listen to what the other clowns are saying. bench 3 times a week and you're going to grow a nice chest.

>be able to bench 2pl8 for 10 reps
>chest still looks like shit
I think you need to do every possible "bodybuilding" exercise for chest. Benching does shit for your chest.

decline bench
>>42803275
i bet your bench form is terrible
