I have about an inch gap between my pecs and it's starting to look a lot more noticeable as I bulk up. How do I work my pecs so that the two muscles will meet and how long would it take?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
I had the same thing too, but when I started doing Dumbell Flyes I started noticing a big difference in a fairly short amount of time.
Personally, I'm having trouble building up the nipple area of my pecs as bench presses, flyes nor dips do anything for me there.

Wax your chest maybe? Lol. Best thing to do is work the Inner and Lower pecs, with Dumbbell Flyes, Cable Crossovers and Decline lifts.

Heh. Thats pretty normal, if it was closer you'd look like you have a clevage.
Just do incline benching. Decline bench presses really arent all that productive, and when you start to lose muscle in your chest area, all that flat/decline bench you were doing to keep you nipples pointing straight now sags down.
Look at any good bodybuilder and you'll see all the muscle is at the top of the chest and the nips are pointing more downwards than anywhere.
Conclusion: bulk more.

flat dumbel press 3x8 (overall mass)
incline dumbel press 3x8 (upper chest, gives sticky out look)
weighted dips 3x8 (lower chest, rounds off the bottom)
flyes or cable crossovers 2x8 (pec/delt tie in, overall stretch)
superior routine hits the entire chest.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I had the same prob, arnold's encyclopedia of modern bodybuilding (must have book btw), gave me some good tips
for mid chest, when im doing flyes, and i bring them all the way to the top, i flex the chest muscle and cross my hands to contract the inner chest fully, been getting great results.
or when im doing cable crossovers, when i pull it in all the way, ill cross one hand over the other (alternate hands every rep) and then ill contract the muscle again.
With exercises like cable cross overs / flyes, amount of weight is not as important as form/range of motion/muscle contraction. when you do them, focus on every rep, no ballistics.

Your chest muscles probably don't attach the way you want so unless your chest is just underdeveloped you might be stuck with the gap no matter what.Originally posted by Ronny_Neumonic II

Nah, if the chest grows in size, the pecs come closer together.
It's just a matter of time, this wont happen overnight, think in terms of months, even years. IMO, bodybuilding requires 3 things: determination, good nutrition, and patience.

Yeah but not everybody's will have that perfect look where the pecs are touching with that awesome crese (SP?) right down the middle. Soem people will always have that giant gap.Originally posted by MindOverMatter

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
ha ha... no it doesnt. Its a matter of muscle insertions. Chest muscles wont get closer. Its not a big deal really though. Check out fitness model dan deckerd and you will see that the gap doesnt really matter.

Odd you say that because I've definitely noticed a big improvement in the gap since I've started working out. Only problem is that I suppose it can be kinda more noticeable as my pecs get bigger, but I do believe that I can completely eradicate it by the end of the year if I work hard at it.
hahaha..... um... yeah.. i love your enthusiasm.. but dude... if you can do what you say... please can you share your chest workout..Originally posted by Ronny_Neumonic II
