chest anatomy
“It starts with upper body anatomy.
This area of the chest has attachments to the clavicle and the humerus or humerus. However, the most important point is that the fibers in this area are oriented from top to bottom and out.
In other words, with your arms at your sides away from your body, your upper chest serves to lift your arms and cross them diagonally across your body.
If you follow the direction of these fibers and mimic the movements of chest exercises, you can hit the upper chest more effectively.
Due to the fact that the top of the pectoralis major muscle has a separate innervation than the rest of the pectoralis major muscle, better concentration and contraction allows you to target that area more neurologically. ”
