Okay.

Well, I am actually in the gym everyday! :)

However, there are so many little gadgets for each body part. For instance, for pectorals, I do 2 sets on the normal bench, 2 sets on the incline udward bench, and 2 set on the incline downward bench.

For some reason, this seems wrong. I think I need one exercise and just stick to it. However, I believe that each of those exercises works a different part of the pectoral.

Should I keep doing this, or should I just pick one main exercise and just do repetitive sets for it?
 
dude.. u reek of noobishness.. lolz

you shoulb be doing something liek this for your pecs

3-4 sets of x reps

flat bench
incline bench
decline bench
parrallel bar dips
pec flyes

it all works diferent part of you chest; although, i usually skip the flyes ;D
 
Wait, can you please clarify how I am supposed to do this...

Is it supposed to be 3 to 4 sets for each exercise, over a range of 3 or 4 exercises? oO
I've never heard of this before....

Or do you mean each of the 4 exercises only one set of x reps?
 
I think he means 3 - 4 sets of each exercise, personally I think all of those are a little too much for chest. I usually stick to two types of presses, whether it be barbell or dumbbell. For example on tuesday I did flat bench (barbell) and incline (barbell). Tomorrow I'm gonna do decline (barbell) and incline with dumbbells.

A lot of people might argue againts the decline, but I've noticed that the decline bench that I use is actually at a greater angle than most decline benches, I feel it quite a bit, and bench about 30-40 more pounds than flat bench.
 
The decline bench shortens the ROM and typically is the same position you want to be in if you're powerlifting.

Nobody, give this a shot on your next chest workout-
flat bench:5X6
low incline 1 arm db press:3X10
cable or db flyes:2X15
