Chest workout...What are some excersises that you've noticed results?

dips, frequency method pushups throughout the day, weighted pushups, reverse slight decline on sorinex hurricane, high incline DB, flat or slight delcine bench to the neck

but the exercises that has provided the most noticable results have been the gioranda dip and the bodyweight fly on gymnastic rings. The Gioranda dip really builds the lower pec to provide that line under the pec imo the ring fly is the best chest exercise there is.

I've been using dumbells instead of barbell lately and have noticed alot more #gainz

I've been using dumbells more frequently and have seen results. What type of sets are you doing? Different rotations of the weight?

With LSU powerlifting, we used to do flat bench with boards.. (1 board on chest, then 2, then 3.. benching with pauses like you do at a powerlifting meet)
It helps with strength at each phase of the bench press

I like to start with the incline and work may way down to decline and then from there fly's from decline to incline. In between sets ill try to get about 30 seconds of push ups in.

Kind of hard to generate muscle confusion on the chest though.

Drop set maybe?

In lieu of pushups every other chest workout you can do 8-10 reps of normal weight but not too heavy, then immediately drop weight about 40% and crank out 8-10 more. You will really feel those.

Also, try to slow down coming back to your chest. That resistance and muscles being under tension will really help them micro tear and get stronger. Try counting to 3-4 seconds when coming back to your chest with bar or dumbells.

on dumb bell bench, I like to start from the raised position and do alternating reps

As a powerlifter myself, this works very well. We also did Monday chest day, 10 x 10 on barbell at 225, and that's it. It's brutal but I got major results and won my meets easily.

Haven't tried that. I've seen people use for shoulders/back.
Is it better to go light and high reps?

Reverse Grip Bench Press is a nice change up to add to regime.
