Note: If you are viewing exercise videos on a mobile device, please switch to horizontal view for the best experience.

Stretching is an essential component of any fitness routine and can help prevent injuries and improve flexibility. One muscle group that can benefit from stretching is the pectoralis muscles, which are located in the chest.

To stretch the pectoralis muscles, you can stand in a doorway with your arms at a 90-degree angle, place your forearms on the door frame, and lean forward to feel the stretch in your chest. You can also perform a standing chest stretch by interlacing your fingers behind your back and squeezing your shoulder blades together. By incorporating these stretches into your routine, you can maintain optimal chest flexibility and range of motion.
