The Serratus Anterior is a muscle located on the side of the chest, extending from the upper ribs to the shoulder blade, or scapula. It plays a crucial role in the movement and stabilization of the shoulder. This muscle helps in lifting the arm and is essential for actions like pushing and reaching. In addition to its primary functions, the Serratus Anterior also aids in the proper alignment of the shoulder blade during various activities. Weakness in this muscle can lead to shoulder problems and affect overall upper body strength, making it important for athletes and active individuals to maintain its health.
