You should execute a range of exercises on your chest to target the different areas of your chest as the bench press alone simply wont build your chest beyond a certain level. Try dumb-bell flyes or simply vary the bench press by increasing or decreasing the incline. To focus upon the middle or inner chest area, exercises such as close hand press-ups or cable cross-over flyes are effective. Building the upper, lower, inner and outer chest will give you a better defined look and what's more keep your chest development in balance. But like most body parts, the only real way to see definition depends upon your . Diet is essential therefore, but cardio obviously helps in this matter :D

the best pec builder i've found are push ups with feet elevated on gymnastic rings...these allow for you to do a "power" version of the push up where you arms stay straight like normal or you can bring the rings in together such as a crossover...plus using all of your bodyweight as resistance is much more wt you'd use than if you were to do crossovers normally...great for inner pecs
