The Muscles In Your Chest

The technical term for the muscles that make up your chest or “pecs” is the Pectoralis Major and the Pectoralis Minor. The Pectoralis Major is located on the front part of the chest. The Pectoralis Minor is located underneath the Pectoralis Major.

While there are certain dividing lines within the visible Pectoralis Major muscle, it’s interesting to note that it’s only 1 muscle. Most people mistakenly believe that they have multiple pectoral muscles (top and bottom), but they don’t – only 1 large muscle!

Parts of The Pectoralis Major

The Pectoralis Major is made up of 3 main divisions:

• The Clavicular Head
• The Sternocostal Head
• The Abdominal Head
