Sup bro, many things to consider...
How are you eating? Have you changed exercises recently?
Maybe we can get a little more advanced/in to it...
I'd work on utilizing both types of hypertrophy, hitting all parts of the chest at different rest, sets and reps/exercise every week. So, you will be utilizing the myofibrillment and the sacroplasmic parts to muscular hypertrophy (muscle growth).
Myofibril hypertrophy requires: 3-5 sets, 5-7 reps, 2-3 minute rest periods.
Sacroplasmic hypertrophy requires: 2-4 sets, 8-12 reps, 30-90 second rest periods.
So, utilizing both of these ^ incorporate them into a chest routine. So for example.. Week 1:
Dumbbell Flat Bench Press: 4 sets X 5-7 reps (2-3 min rest periods)
Incline Barbell Bench Press: 4 sets X 5-7 reps (2-3 min rest periods)
Flat Chest Flies: 3 sets X 8-10 reps (30-90 sec rest periods)
Dumbbell Pullovers: 3 sets X 8-12 reps (30-90 sec rest periods)
Then keeping the same exercises (constant switch results in only neurological changes) but changing reps and sets, as well as rest periods. Week 2:
Dumbbell Flat Bench Press: 4 sets X 8-12 reps (30-90 sec rest periods)
Incline Barbell Bench Press: 4 sets X 8-10 reps (30-90 sec rest periods)
Flat Chest Flies: 3 sets X 7-10 reps (2-3 min rest periods)
Dumbbell Pullovers: 3 sets X 6-8 reps (2-3 min rest periods)
^...Add what ever exercises you want, this is a model and maybe you can benefit by it. Just a suggestion bro, lemme know what you think. |
