twisting your hands to where your knuckles are facing u at top. You should get the best upper chest region. This way is only working mid lower chest and canyon forming. Now if you have alot of fat there it would most likely build up into upper and lower.
pick a weight u can do for about 7-8 reps no more or no less. then after the 7-8 reps, drop 10 pounds for each dumbell (ex. 65-55). then do that until failure. then drop wieght another 10 pounds (ex 55-45) then do til failure. Repeat this process 2 more times.. it burns like mad
I agree with lifting heavy, but what seems appropriate is 8-10 reps x 2-3 sets
Give it a year and you will notice some serious muscle growth happening, not a lot, but a good amount. Be sure to eat everything healthy, get lots of rest, and have explosive workouts.
I don't know what you mean by "2 *weeks*"... give it half a year to notice "positive results" and by the end you should be getting at a reasonable muscle size.
Should twist your wrists slightly to keep all tension on your upper pecs and off your front delts. One of the benfiets of using dumbells versus barbells, if you're going to keep your wrists straight across like that you might as well use barbells anyways great excersice
just do 3 sets of this, three sets of flat db press(8-10 reps of each exercise) make sure u use a weight that on the last 1-2 reps your at vertual failure(then have sum1 spot u) do this about twice a week and each PLENTY of PROTEIN. also do exercises like flat db flys and incline db flys and 8-10 reps( see it through for at least 2 months you WILL see results
My fave workout :)

i think nothing can match the effect of a regular pushups!! ofcourse this exercise is very good

bench press > push ups any day of the week
pushups is an endurance exercise once you reach a certain strength level.
