Writing exercise
At the 6th week of the embryonic development we are each like a worm. At this stage the arms are developing outward from the side of the body, with the fingers being the first to grow, before continuing their growth to become the upper arm. The fascia of the upper arm is divided into the pectoral major, at the front, and the latissimus dorsi, at the back. This, coupled with the fact that they have a similar movement pattern, is the reason for Anatomy Train to have categorized them into the superficial front line. This is my evolution process video.
By the way, the collar bone is the last bone we develop as adults, and as we’re growing in height, our collar bones continue to grow until the age of 25.
