It's game time out here. Muscle Monday is taking a look at an essential muscle for all levels of performance that is far too often overlooked. This is the famous boxing punching muscle that shows its rigid teeth along the rib cage. It sure packs a punch! Tune in to learn about the biggest difference between us and monkeys (we suck at pull ups), and what factors play into this difference. For anything overhead, this muscle is a requirement.
*Disclaimer: In the episode I was unclear about the nerve root contribution of the long thoracic nerve. It receives its supply from the levels of C5, C6, and C7.
