I know what you mean. I bench pressed for years and can honestly say that I never really felt like my chest was being worked. Try taking 40% off of your max one rep bench, then do 12 reps with 4 second positive (raising) and 4 second negative (lowering) reps. When you can successufully do this exercise immediately go to dumbell flyes with about 20 lbs in each arm and crank out about 10-15 reps with the same 4 seconds up and down. This should inflate that chest! You should only be able to do one set.
