Am I Doing Too Much For Chest ? was created by The DAB
Ive been reading through alot of the stuff in this forum & contune to learn as ive never really asked for advice from people directly. I've always read and put together what ive come to learn.
I have 2 routines for chest i use just to keep things different.
Routine 1
Flat Bench 4 sets 10 - 6 reps
Incline Dumbbell Press 4 sets 10 - 6 reps
Incline Flys 4 sets 12 - 8 reps
Cable Cross Overs 4 sets 12 - 8 reps
Routine 2
Incline Barbell Press 4 sets 10 - 6 reps
Flat Dumbbell Press 4 sets 10 - 6 reps
Incline Flyes 4 sets 12 - 8 reps
Weighted Dips 3 sets 10 reps
Do i do too much ? Can i add some stuff in ? Are my rep ranges alright ?
All criticism is welcome

The only question that matters mate is "is it working for you?"
If yes, then /thread
If no then assess and address your chest. What's lacking etc

I wouldn't add anything as that more than enough already. Rather concentrate on the intensity of ur workouts.
It would also help knowing what ur stats are.

Pullovers works well for me with Chest (Outer Chest)
And maybe think of Decline Smith Machine/Dumbells with your Routine 1.

I feel to answer that question you need to see your whole program not just one segment.
How much other pressing are you doing i.e shoulders, how much back work are you doing?

That looks just fine.
Everybody is different though, and if you feel like you're lacking in a certain area, aren't gaining on that routine any more, or a certain excersize isn't working for you, then by all means switch it up.
