pecs helps me get bitches

they bring the arms forward, just look at a chest fly and thats what they do

They're the muscles that help you bench press

its your chest you fucker

They rotate your shoulders inwards

tpbp

They make you look like you lift without clothes

The job of the pecs are to move the arm toward and across the chest.

>The pectoralis major's primary functions are flexion, adduction, and internal rotation of the humerus.

20 Reasons Whys PECS Are KLLING Your GAINS

They protect your fragile heart.

They're basically the foundational anchor muscle for most lifts.

Your arms cant just be fucking attached to nothing. They need to be attached to the pecs which themselves are attached across a big stable area of bone

My shoulders and my posture are all kinds of fucked up. I have spent years trying to figure out how to bench with my pecs, perfecting my form, etc. When I lie on my back and feel my pec with one hand and move the other arm at different angles, mimicking the bench press movement there is pretty much no point where my pecs contract noticeably. Let's say I do a wall push up to feel which movement and angle causes my pec to contract, there simply isn't one. I simply can not recreate any pushing movement that engages my pecs enough to even notice that they are flexing. Now bringing my arms across the chest, squeezing, etc. that gives me insane contractions.

if you ever got hugged you'd know you pathetic fag

They'll help you get your 15 year old cousin to shout "pecs" then touch your abs at dinner time

>these are the people who give advice on Jow Forums

Move the arms forward like on bench and inward like on a fly
They also support the arms in the practical case of lifting something

Same. This is what I think will give me pec gains but the few times I tried it my shoulder didn't like it.

Meant for

wow and I was using my front delts for that the whole time

At least you weren't using triceps like me, at least on an anonymous imageboard I can tell someone the embarassing truth

This is the real answer.
So in order to activate your chest, focus on keeping your arms as close to your chest as possible. Do this next time you bench press and you will be reborn.

I tried that the other day and my lift was down 30%

Then you’re weak
It’s not about numbers for you is it user?
