Bigger pecks without weights?

bobcat78 Posts: 2 Joined: 2007/05/26	2007/05/26, 09:33 AM I really want bigger pecks, but I'm a student so I can't afford to go to the gym or buy some weights. I already do push ups, tricep thrusts and light weights to work my upper body, so my pecks are quite toned, they're just really small. I do quite a lot of exercise and have a good diet, so I think it must be my work out plan. I've read that bench presses are the best to build the pecks, but are there any other exercise I could do at home?

You should be easily able to find a position that stresses your chest and especially your triceps. warning : you seem to be really focused on your chest , but if you work your chest too much (i doubt your in much danger of it at the moment) , without working your back out , you shoulders will hunch fowards.
