people would say heavy compound
i do bench press,squat,whatever compound when i started
but now i realize i dont gain much from seated shoulder press,so i do different variety of raise for  shoulder width
and i will do widegrip upright row 1st only follow by press(due to my curve clavicles structure i have easy growing traps but hell developed delts<<)
for the rest bodypart i still sitck to compound

•Australian researchers reported in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research that when weight-trained subjects performed incline bench presses, the muscle activity of their upper pecs was only about 5% more than the muscle activity of their upper pecs during the flat bench press.
•Canadian scientists found that when trained lifters did the reverse-grip bench press, the muscle activity of their upper pecs was 30% greater than when they did the bench press with a standard overhand grip.

One question to ask. Does

1) Eating a lot (heavy breakfast and lunch) + workout (evening) + light dinner

2) Eating lighter before workout and very heavy dinner after workout

make a difference?

Reverse bench does get a good contraction in the chest, but can be taxing on the wrists and shoulders. I tried them once, and decided they definitely weren't for me.

crab, would you mind posting a pic of yourself? would like to see the curved clavicle structure that you have.

and imo, a human body shouldnt be so different that its impossible to bring up delts. my delts only started growing when i caught my mistake in form when doing lateral raises. since then, i doubled my lat raise sets to catch up and my delts dramatically improved. now i have to double my rear delt work, lol.
