Anatomical terms of muscle. The pectoralis major (/ËpÉktÉËreÉªláµ»s ËmeÉªdÊÉr/) (from Latin: pectus, breast) is a thick, fan-shaped muscle, situated at the chest (anterior) of the human body. It makes up the bulk of the chest muscles in the male and lies under the breast in the female. Underneath the pectoralis major is the pectoralis minor, a thin, triangular muscle. In sports as well as bodybuilding, the pectoral muscles may colloquially be referred to as pecs, pectoral muscle or chest muscle.
The pelvic muscles are positioned like a mini trampoline that slings across the area where you sit. They run from the pubic bone at the front, to the lower part of the tail bone at the back and from side to side between the sit bones. The pelvic floor muscles are positioned in layers in the floor of the pelvis. This position can make them vulnerable to strain and injury, especially in women.
