Anyways, that guys looks very very good for 40 and especially if he really is all natural. He is very accomplished but it is also good to mention that what works for him won't work for everyone. He is obviously more advanced and being of a very different age even makes a big difference too.

A novice lifter shouldn't focus on "inner chest development" or "bicep peak" or anything like that. Just focus on getting strong and everything with get bigger.

well said. i also agree that the guy looks in tip-top conditioning and is impressive....however, what i bolded out in your post needs to be taken into consideration.

infact, this is why i even had my rant..

i asked him for his weight and height, he gave the reply, then gymrat said

which is why i went on my rant.

plus, what gymrat suggested is not new....these type of variations are known by a lot of people. however, if you tell a gullible beginner to start doing more chest work by using an incline variation, when instead he should be focussing on his squats, deadlifts and bench press, you are misleading him. this is irresponsible behavior and that is why i got annoyed.
