The bench is almost certainly the most popular weight training exercise there is. There isn’t an exercise that will build the chest muscles faster than the classic flat bench press. However, you need to do other chest exercises for better overall pectoral development. Incline bench presses are great for building the upper chest, and must be done for proportionate development in the chest. In fact, it’s a good idea to start your chest workouts with incline if you have overdeveloped lower pecs as compared to the upper ones. Weighted dips are another exercise you can do as part of your chest routine. A couple of excellent finishers for chest workouts that will allow you to end off with a pump are dumbbell flyes and cable crossovers.
