Serratus anterior Exercises

This is a bodyweight exercise done on a slanted bench. It works a side chest muscle called the serratus anterior, as well as your arms and shoulders. The main goal is to move your shoulder blades back and forth to make your shoulders steady and strong.

The scapula push-up is a bodyweight exercise that works the muscles near your ribs and helps your shoulder blades move better. You do this in a high plank position, moving your shoulder blades instead of bending your elbows.

This exercise works the serratus anterior muscles using a Smith machine. You perform it by standing at an angle and lifting the bar straight up. This movement focuses on your shoulders and the upper part of your chest.
