I would use dips for that…, the best for the lower pecs…, because you get the greatest range of motion… Just use a corner at your kitchen counter… Just remember the closer you hold you hands to you body…, the more you hit your triceps then your pecs….
This is what I would do…
Dumbbell Flat Bench Press
Incline dumbbell Press
Dips
Dumbbell Flys
Don’t start with the dips because they do hit your triceps hard…, and you want them strong for the duration of your chest workout.. You can also do a decline bench press which works ok with dumbbells but not as effect then with a bar…, you limit the range of motion….
Once you get a bar…, I would recommend this…
Dumbbell Bench Press
Incline Bench Press
Wide Grip bench Press
Dips
Narrow Grip Bench Press
Dumbbell Flies
This hits every aspect of your chest for good development.. I start off with the dumbbells because they require more balancing muscles so you get better development.., plus a wide range of motion..
Good luck…
