Special Push Ups for Pectus Excavatum

A lot of people have tried to fix their pe with bodybuilding. I have never seen a bodybuilder who has made very huge improvements of the sternum. If you know about someone who has made big improvements to this specific deformity, please make a comment because that would be a big sensation.

During my research I have really tried to figure out how every single bone interacts with every single muscle and the best tip I can give you is to do so called incline push-ups (the feet shall be lower than the upper body). Why?

When doing this exercise the pelvis will be rotated to maximal perfection. This will in turn activate the abdomen perfectly. And together with interaction of the upper part of the chest the rib cage will be stretched and the sternum lifts out. Even the kyphotic spine related to pe will be improved and the blood flow in the upper back will increase.

Another significant benefit from this training method is that the upper chest (along the shoulder line) will grow, and it will make the chest as a whole, to look a lot better.

Tip: You can for example do this exercise with the hands on a normal bed and the feet on the floor.

Note: Most people don’t seem to know that people with pectus excavatum have a small curvature of the spine. It can be so small so it is almost unnoticeable. My theory predicts that the sunken sternum and the kyphotic spine are interrelated. And to fix pectus excavatum the spine must be normalized (the muscles shall be stretched so that the spine can be straightened).

This exercise is probably one of the most misunderstood exercises in the world. Amateurs tend to believe that it activates mostly the lower part of the chest. My advice is, listen to the experts not the amateurs. The vast majority (which includes most amateurs) are wrong.
