I had my first day of class today. I was going to tell you about it, but we were too busy talking about you again. Kidding. I'll tell you about it later though. Overall, what a crappy day for me, except the workouts. Could be worse though, my legs could have not been working right and I wouldn't have been able to show my college friends how much of a beast I am! Kidding.

Muscle of the Day
Serratus Anterior

Origin: Ribs 8,9
Insertion: Scapula (I forgot where though. Sorry)
Functions: Scapula Protraction (!), Scapula Stabilization, Assists in rotation (Ext. I think)

Other Facts: This is one of my favorite muscles to train indirectly. It is always activated when you do push motions as it helps you stabilize, but pushing beyond your normal range is what really activates it. If someone is "Winging (scaps stick out too far in back)", this is one of the muscles to definitely consider targeting.

Time to go eat!

Hope your internets can has work soon!

Kill you next workout!
