How to stretch the pectoralis minor muscle the right way 

This feels completely different than the pec minor stretch that a dozen other pt channels taught - so much better! Thank you!!

This is one exercise I have not been doing but which is very helpful for my tos. Better posture, exercising the scalenes, raising my shoulders and stretching the pec minor have done wonders for me.

I have been to 10 chiropractors and doctors for my neck issues and I got worse. A few videos of MSK Neurology has almost cured me, forever grateful.

Really glad to see this. My previous PTs had me stretch it the wrong way (back and down) and it severely worsened my TOS symptoms

Good to see you back! Hope you are well!

Great video! I’m looking forward to the next one when it comes out in 2,5 years

Good to see you in the feed, this is much needed info. I have gotten close to this stretch but only randomly did I ever find relief. Your gave a great way to reproduce it, I dont think I would have ever figured it out! thank you 😁

This is an amazing channel. I hope you keep doing more videos, this is extremely helpful. Upper torso and neck muscles are so important and the cause of so many problems nowadays, and yet it's hard to find info that is truly useful. Thank you for the work, looking forward to new videos! Subscribed

I’m going to have to watch all your videos! Great stuff. Much appreciated

Thank you.

Thank you - I've never seen a pec minor stretch with the rotation of the arm like this.

Excellent! Its almost like divine providence that you uploaded this video today. Very cool Kjetil

Excellent information. Missed you here on youtube. 👍

THis pec minor strech is super! tried already.

This explains why I prefer to use a pec fly machine with the horizontal handles meant for the rear delt extensions. My right pec minor is tight and under developed causing other issues on my right side and the pec fly machine allows me to really stretch it and practice proper engagement of my entire right pec, again, holding the horizontal handles palms down

Thanks for the info and love your channel. May I ask: what are the other muscles that you think might be worth stretching aside from the pec minor? Do you believe in static stretches after a workout?

Could you do a video about pec minor strengthening exercises?

Having neck instability caused nerve irritation to my scapular stabilizers, I found doing the doorway stretch would make my shoulder blade wing medially, this does not cause that

Damn, looking buff and tanned Kjetil!👌

One thing I'd add with pec minor tightness, for me at least, is it seems to be caused by improper/inhibited breathing initiated by TOS especially relative to the scalenes.

My arms go numb and tingly when I do the typical doorway stretch so I'll give this a try!

What does it mean if one of my arms can barely even knternally roate above my head?

Hi Kjetil I read some case study about Postural Restoration Institute techiques mainly focused on the serratus and obliques being used to heal someone with severe TOS, the idea was that training these muscles by specific exercises and breathing exercises would make the ribs flare less and drop the 1st rib. Would that make sense in your opinion? If not do you still recommend strengthening of the asm as the main exercise?

How applicable is 2-3x per week? I cannot even put my entire arm against the wall without feeling a stretch; Just my thumb on the wall, scapula elevated and my arm at about a 90 degree angle feels like a good stretch. Any more and I trigger cold hands, headache and brain fog. It is currently impossible for me to do any pull ups or overhead work in the gym without triggering symptoms for days, even while paying special close attention to adequate scapular kinematics. In my case, should I do more than 2-3x per week?

Correct shoulder position is up and back or just up? Instead of back and down, thank you for video

This feels so much better than other videos, that pec minor is a pain in the rear to stretch correctly. this felt great thank you!🙏🏼 🤍

Can a tight pec minor increase the risk of jamming the humerus in to the scapula when going too low on a dumbbell bench press?

Could you share your tips how to isolate clavicula-humerus part of the pec major? Possibly with dumbells or bands at home circumstances. I got that section painful, and its making my front shoulder very achy. 🤕 Restricting mobility too

When I do this stretch I get tingling in my arms. Is that another positive signal that I have tos?

Pec major iz internal rotator of shoulder isn't it? So how can we relax it with internal rotation? I don't won't to be disrespectful, i'm just confused 😅 You have one of the best channels btw 😊

Have you ever had to strengthen a pec minor?
