Re: Chest

for overall development it is helpful to vary your exercises from week to week, specificaly toward the areas you are most interested in working

Outer Chest- db flies(go low), dips, incline/flat

db/bb bench (lower 3/4 of movement)

Inner Chest- crossovers, narrow grip bech

Lower Chest- decline db/bb/machine press, dips, decline flies(decline pretty much anything), cable flies

Upper Chest - incline db/bb/machine press, incline flies

You can experiment with all of these, but i dont know of any good chest exercises that dont hit your shoulders too

Re: Chest

The flies will hit the shoulders less than some of the others.

the closer your grip on the bench, the more tricepts you work out, the more you move your hands out, the more chest

i cant believe no one suggested rearranging his grip... how close are your hands on the bench? try move them out a bit, then there is of course like everyone else said, flies, incline, decline, etc.
