Chest Exercise

August 22, 2009 · Posted in Exercise Routines 

The largest muscle in the chest is called Pectoralis Major and the smaller one is called Pectoralis Minor. The Pectoralis Major has got what we refer to as the upper part and the lower part. The upper part is close to the collar bone- the closest part of the neck and the lower part close to the sternum – the bone in the middle of the chest to which ribs are attached.
