Question Chest Help =[

The bane of my bodybuliding experience ... Pretty much sums up this area of my body. The rest of my body responds to just about everything I do, whereas my chest hardly responds to anything I do.

I've been training on and off for 5 years, the last 2 of which have been consistent. I was doing some reading, and I believe I may have a higher fast twitch fiber make-up throughout my chest. I've had a few lifting partners, and what I've noticed is I have much better stamina in the bench press, than they do. However, they've got me in power, easily. I can bench 200 lbs X 15 reps, but cannot do 225 lbs X 1.

What do you guys think ? Think I should switch over to higher reps to make it respond better ?

I change my workouts every 4 weeks.

One bodypart per week. No AAS, for now. Another month or two, and I believe I'll have the base necessary for that.

Currently my chest workout is as follows:

Inclind DB Press 3 X 6-8
Flat BB Press 3 X 6-8
Flat DB Flyes 2 X 10 X 15.

I make gains, but they are nothing compared to the rest of my body.

I think I already answered my own question, just curious as to what you guys might think ? Anyone have similar experiences ? Hard to bring up the chest ? What you might have done ?

I've also heard, for some, the bench press just doesn't suit them. I dunno =/
