What’s the point of training chest?

[slayer69]

Whats the point of doing isolated chest workouts and “building your pecs” and dedicating a whole day to build chest?

 

[Nisse]

no point unless your chest is a weakpoint

 

[dwohh]

chest + arms + shoulders = 99% of effort for fag gymcels who odnt care about strength and only "asthethifsc"

Its one of the most asthetic body parts

 

[Prettyboy]

Of course every other bodypart is but chest is even more so about good insertions. “Flat” (barely hypertrophied) but square chest will beat a melting built up one with natural gap inbetween the pecs

 

[Deleted member 17997]

Pecs are just based on frame, insertions, androgen receptors etc. making them bigger is a meme

Lol if you don't just do cable machines and abs honestly

 

[Amnesia]

Prioritize lateral delts abs and neck/traps

Ultra Real

No one wants to see u with a 34DD like chest while you’re walking around it’s cringe af

It naturally comes along with a good insertion while doing other compound movements or it doesn’t.

Maxing our Core should be the ideal goal, always

If u have insane strength and get yourself to a low bf%, u will instantly look like a Greek god

You shouldn’t dedicate a day specifically to build chest or any one muscle for that matter, and all the best chest exercises aren’t isolation movements they’re pressing movements that hit your shoulders and triceps very significantly. Isolation movements like flys are optional and you shouldn’t spend a ton of time on them but they can hit the chest in a different way with more emphasis on parts of the muscle that aren’t getting as hard from presses.

I assume you’re really asking why shoot for a big chest aesthetically and the answer is thickness. No one cares how wide you are if you look like flat stanley

you mirin?

yeah you mirin

A big muscular chest only doesn't look good on manlets and guys with barrel rib cages. My chest was really hard to fill out so I did everything under the sun from compounds to isolated work. The combination is ideal IMO. The stretch on full range dumbbell flies at the end of your workout insures that you don't get injured or become too inflexible.

 

[Salieri]

pure chest days are good for actual bro bodybuilders who are already close to maxxed out and on a bunch of roids for recovery

average gym bro who does chest alone on one day is most likely retarded though

 

[Deleted member 16853]

Mf always train your chest(just don't go Od on it), But as much as you train your chest, Don't forget to train your back
as long as you aren't using steroids, your chest will look pretty nice(unless you happen to be a framecel)

According to .org users growing every muscle is a meme

 

[Gonthar]

Big chest looks manly...

Lats mog chest to oblivion for aesthetics

 

[DoctorLooksmax]

Big chest looks sick

 

[Ottoman Janissary]

to have bigger chest?

 

[Harold O'brien]

small chest wimps crying ITT

 

[Deleted member 18086]

becase everything matters. you need wide chest, wide shoulders, white back, big arms, big legs and abs in order to look "ok"

 

[slayer69]

you need wide chest,

That purely depends on the way your rib cage is,
If u have a giga tiny rib cage and train chest it’s gonna look hideous.

 

[slayer69]

I’m not saying chest should be flat or something, but going out of the way to train it sounds extremely retarded

all great body builders train their chest a lot, its a law

 

[Deleted member 2382]

My chest looked like shit while incline benching 50kg dumbbells at about 13% bodyfat
I need to be close to 10% for my chest to actually look somewhat aesthetic
But then if I lose too much mass it looks narrow

 

[Deleted member 16801]

No chest no sex
