The rhomboid and pectoralis minor muscles are strongly involved in this exercise. |
The cable crossover works the pectoralis major and minor, anterior deltoid, coracobrachialis and serratus anterior. |
If mobilization proves difficult, it may be facilitated by dividing the proximal portion of the pectoralis major insertion on the humerus. |
In brief a mini-thoracotomy or a sternotomy is performed and tissue is obtained from either pectoralis major or from rectus abdominous muscle. |
An instance of the origin of the long tendon of the biceps from the tendon of pectoralis major is described by Koster. |
Programming of a gradual current application gradient in order to avoid a myotatic stretch reflex in the pectoralis major muscle. |
