    Better Chest Exercise than BP?

    You have only been training for 6-7 months. I think you are focusing on chest too much. You also say your focus isn't strength/powerlifting and just muscle size, but in order for that to happen you have to stick to basics at where your training is at the moment. Dips and Bench is enough. I think...

    New Training Program

    As Dave has stated, do a full body routine 4 days a week providing you eat enough foods to go with the training. As many has said, you need a base to start of, then you can add whatever you like once the foundation is built.

    How much can you chin?

    Do you guys use hip/leg drive to bring the weight up? I personally think a proper chin is when you are fully dead hanged and then pull yourself up.
