I've been thinking about adding 3 sets of 1 chest exercise heavy on my back/sholders and legs/tricep days to try to help it thicken up.

In two weeks I'm due a workout change. I'm open to suggestions there. I was thinking of going back to either dumb bells or smith incline press/bench press next go round.

Maybe swap to dumb bell lat pulls.

I can do wide pull ups all day long, but my lats just don't get wider. I have a long torso which likely contributes.

I just found out today that I've been invited to attend a vacation with the company down to FL in April in thanks for a project I completed. 40 of us were invited. Haha, I'll be smokin'.
I'm not particularily fond of smith machine exercises, they they force you to use a form that may not be best for certain exercises.

Incline dumbell flyes may help with your pecs especially if you normally do not do them, I respond well to them but everyone is different but they may be worth a shot, doing your bench presses with an incline may help as well.
Also doing less different types of exercises with more weight may be beneficial.
