Post getting squre looking chest.

Hey this is my first time on this board.

Anyways, im wanting to get a square looking chest. I Like i want the bottom of my peck be look more like a L than a U that sticks out alot. I ride bikes alot so i have a low body fat percentage but im just wanting to get my pecks like [url="http://expn.go.com/media/hoffman/2001/photos/hoffmantour/10.jpg"]http://expn.go.com/media/hoffman/2001/photos/hoffmantour/10.jpg[/url] that instead of huge body builder looking pecks. What should i do, alot of dumbell flys or alot of military presses or bench presses or what? Im totally confused. I have pecks right now but they make more a U shape than an L shape.

thanks to those who reply.

Its not like its easy to get bodybuilder physiques you know. I'll never understand why people think that doing a couple reps will make them some buff mofo (mostly girls think this)

ANYWAYS your gonna have to do some resistance training, full body. You can just grow in one spot your whole body has to grow together.

Cool

it all depends on body type.. thats all there is to it. Some people have bulging pecs (Shwarzeneger style) and some have more squarish ones. It all depends on height, size, and genetics. I guess the more chest muscle you build the more square it will look.. but Im not sure.

I would suggest that you do some decline presses, these will target the lowere Pec more. Additionaly, for mass you should think about using heavier weight and fewer reps. You have to have the muscle there to get the shape...Be sure to get plenty of rest as well.
