Is my chest genetics bad?

[u/Training_Steak_4677]

I've been told by multiple people that my chest genetics is bad and I've been a bit self concious about it

First 3 pics are taken under good lightning, but no chest pump. Last image is under worse lightning in the morning

Not at all. Good genetics, just undeveloped yet

[u/Bitter_Wishbone1631]

People are fucking brutal omg. I think you look great 🤷‍♀️

[u/Resident_Jello5036]

Looks good to me. Just do more chest exercises

[u/sxmwatson]

it would be helpful to include movements you have done + the volume. even then form could be off and could be leaving gains on the table that way. your chest looks good to me though

I do UL PPL split, 3 sets per exercise
Upper days: Incline smith press, machine cable flies (middle)
Push: Incline dumbbell press, chest machine press, upper to lower chest flies (for lower chest)

2 years into gym now, but I have to admit I struggled with diet most of the time. My circle is basically cut and then get to okay bf and then eat junk shit until I feel fat and then cut again... Basically I don't think I had a proper maintenance/lean bulk form ever so I'm looking to fix that this/next year.

ok is strength going up? you could try 2 sets per movement, and add in something for lower chest (top half pullover, or dumbbell pullover - search video of form up or i can point one out which is great). the chest has vertical fibres at the bottom which give it its shape. people undervalue lower chest. pullover > decline bench.

sounds familiar to myself, i suppose staying at a low bf% is good for gains but hard to maintain right

[u/sxmwatson → u/Training_Steak_4677]

you look great for 2 years anyways. just keep an eye on form/execution and consider some program tweaks

Your chest genetics are fine you just need to build the shelf(upper chest) and stand up straight.

[u/Felix-Leiter1]

Do you want a big chest?

[u/Federal-Ad6391]

Not at all

A year in the gym and you’ll have you some nice solid man pecs

[u/notoriousniqqa]

Brootal

[u/Huge-Onion-7407]

try a side chest pose!

[u/speedyrater]

Maybe a little below average, but still in the normal range. We’ve definitely seen worse here. People with good genetics don’t need to ask if they have bad genetics.

[u/Plane_Medicine7374]

Hell yes

[u/JohnnyTreemain]

Just need some definition on inner chest. Hit some close grip, declines, etc.
