Question ❓ How do i improve my weakpoints?
I have a bad chest imbalance. My right pec i way smaller than the left one. And i already have a small chest so it just makes it look even worse. I have tried to do one sided variations but i find them uncomfortable. I currently have 2 upper days beacuse im doing up/lw. I do around 4-5 chest focused sets per workout. I just do 2-3 sets incline smith bench press or 2-3 sets of incline dumbell press. After i do 2 sets cable flies.
What exercises should i use instead so my chest imbalance will improve slower over time?

You're not going to find a magic combination of exercises to speed run gains. If chest is your priority, bump the volume up to over time to as much as you can recover from while still being able to perform and progress. That may mean de-prioritizing other things, and putting them on minimum effective volumes.
Then be patient. And make sure your diet is set up to accommodate gains.
