What is your chest routine.

Wanted to see what everyone did for their chest routines here. This is my weakest body part. I get compliments on my shoulders and arms routinely. Can't remember getting a compliment on my chest though.. :(

I usually start with flat or incline barbell (switch it up depending on how I feel). Then typically go to incline dumbell. Then an incline hammer strength machine. Then some type of fly, machine or cables. Usually do 3-4 sets of each, getting around a total of 12-16 sets. I will typically do 4-12 reps range with heavy weight one week and the next do 8-20 rep range with little lighter weight.

This is a typical routine. I often switch it up with many variances. Sometimes run it backwards and start with flys or throw dips in. Also sometimes I go real slow with my movement other times fast.

What do you do?

Pretty much the same. I like loading plates on a smith machine then drop sets
 
Barrbell chest press x4 incline smith x3 heavy dips x3-4 dumdell press heavy x3 dumbell fly supper set with push ups x3 all in the 4-8 rep range...all with 1 min rest between sets..killer work out..then light shoulders..15-30 rep range..this is what im doing right now..gone are the days of 2-3 exercises and my chest is sore..
 
I usually change mine up pretty much weekly. I don't go in with a set routine....too many times have had to wait on equipment in past, so I just go with flow. I do try to make sure to include two incline exercises....usually one type of press and one fly movement.
 
I always include flat, incline, decline but in no particular order. Also, I try to switch between heavy barbell and heavy dumbbell. Sometimes machine decline depending on equipment availability. Then I like to add cable crossovers, dumbbell flies or machine flies (one or two of those). Usually 4 or 5 sets flat bench and 3 to 4 of everything else.
