The upper pecs run down and away from the clavicle to the shoulder. To engage these fibers the best, you’ll want to perform exercises that bring your shoulder up and across your body.

To hit the upper clavicular fibers of the pecs (“upper chest”) you ideally want to motions. The first is angular flexion of the shoulder from low and away to up and in. The second (building on the “in” portion), you want adduction of the arm across midline. This Olympic Bar landmine variation checks both boxes at once. ✅✅ Give it a shot and light up those fibers like never before. Let the gains begin! P.S. Workout powered by RX1 Preworkout and 5 Finger Death Punch! | ATHLEAN-X

Need to fix what’s called “pancake pecs”? It’s not complicated but it will take some work on two specific exercises. More accurately, it’s going to take two movement patterns to perfectly complement each other and help you get more complete development. It’s not uncommon to have specific areas of the pecs that are underdeveloped in relation to the others (for most it’s the upper pectorals that are lacking). This two step attack plan is going to build in flexibility to allow you to hit the areas

The bench press angle shown to engage all areas of the pecs maximally is 30 degrees. Any higher and the front delts start to take over for the upper chest. Don’t have an adjustable bench? Flip to an underhand grip and engage the upper chest even when using a flat bench! #puttingthesciencebackinstrength #benchpress #chest #trainsmart #dumbbells #bench #gym #athleanx #jeffcavaliere | ATHLEAN-X

Provided you work within your available, controllable shoulder range of motion…I can’t say that there’s a better option for hitting the big three upper body push muscle groups - chest, shoulders and triceps. They prefer to work together and this does just that. Added option for weight if needed to increase the challenge (or bands to offload the challenge into an assisted dip) make it even more versatile. And so is often the case, Mentzer’s advice stands the test of time - and we get to benefit f

No incline bench? No problem. Did you know that the underhand dumbbell bench press had been shown to elicit greater activation of the upper chest clavicular fibers than even the incline bench press itself? Remember to follow the fibers when you do it though. Move the dumbbells from low and away (next to the lower chest line) to high and together to put some pressure on those upper pecs to do the lions share of the press! Give it a shot and let me know how you like it… let the gains begin! #chest

The bench press and pushup are essentially inverted variations of each other in terms of the upper body biomechanics. The fixed hand and body placement in the pushup however create a clash in your mechanics between how you’re SUPPOSED to move and how you ARE moving. Follow the proper bar path on a bench press (back and up) by altering your “body path” on the pushup by making the two simple adjustments I’m showing you here. Let me know how it works for you.

The interesting thing about the triceps is that functionally, they are a predominant “push” muscle of the upper body…helping to extend the elbow during pressing or dips. But don’t forget that they are also highly cooperative in posterior chain “pulling” due to the actions of the long head helping to addict and extend the shoulder. It’s also the reason why many stretch focused triceps exercises also stretch the lats! This is all to say that when you get a chance to let these muscles work together

There’s a simple shift you can make to a classic triceps push down to keep more tension on the triceps throughout the range of motion. This is the rocking pushdown. With the goal being to keep the cable as perpendicular to the forearm as possible for as long as possible - the rock helps you do just that. This is NOT, I repeat NOT about leaning back and using your bodyweight to cheat the weight up. This is just a shift of the upper torso to allow for the more favorable alignment at the end of the
