Decline benches give you breast-like pecs and flat benched may give them according 2 beyond joy building by pavel. But do push give you breast-like pecs.
He is quoting Pavel verbatim, the chapter is literally titled “I don’t want my pecs to look like breasts”. Pavel asserts that decline and flat benching will give men breasts, in a female way. (Pavel specifically states the kind of breasts given by decline and flat benching is a female attribute not a male)@Boomer 373737, you've chosen an odd way to word your question.
Hypertrophy of the pectoral muscles in men does not result in "breast-like" protuberances unless perhaps _fat_, and not muscle, is at issue, and exercise is not known to cause the addition of fat to the best of my knowledge.
NB: I find myself now wondering how many posts besides mine it will take before I will have to close this thread. I'm guessing it won't take many.

lol, what magic ball do you use to determine what Pavel is saying seriously and what he isn’t? Seems that reading what he wrote and interpreting it as he wrote it and even clarified in the next paragraph is the most effective way. And that way says Pavel calls the bench and decline bench as exercises that will cause you to grow female breasts.I own beyond bodybuilding and even though it does say that. We have to remind ourselves of the use of creative writing.
I think what is being eluded to is the typical bodybuilding overly built pectorals in place of the older generation bodybuilders with less overall chest development and in particular less lower chest development.
This does not mean that those exercises will literally build pectoral that resemble breasts.

The ultimate decline bench is dips with weight. U know, like the thing Lu doesThank goodness I don't bench very often!
There are many style of bench, describe in multi books of Pavel.lol, what magic ball do you use to determine what Pavel is saying seriously and what he isn’t?

I think it’s an issue of, like Steve said, some excess body fat, or possibly just differences in individual muscle formation/anatomy.

He goes on to recommend incline benches and keeping flat benching to low sets and reps
Any good pec development will sag as you age when you aren’t pumped, pushups included.
No magic ball needed. Just common senselol, what magic ball do you use to determine what Pavel is saying seriously and what he isn’t?
