I kill it with cable cross overs... and when I say cross over, I mean literally crossing your hands like an X in front of your chest from different angles. I usually do 2-3 sets of 8-12 with these at the end of my chest workout...
Try it out, and you'll feel that incredible burn at the very end of each rep when you cross your hands over!Never. Stop. Pushing.

If you argue with a madman, it is extremely probable that you will get the worst of it; for in many ways his mind moves all the quicker for not being delayed by the things that go with good judgment. He is not hampered by a sense of humor or by charity, or by the dumb certainties of experience. He is the more logical for losing sane affections. The madman is not the man who has lost his reason. The madman is the man who has lost everything except his reason. -- G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

You can emphasize the inner chest but it certainly has nothing to do with the pec minor lol
The reason you can emphasize different parts of a muscle is due to compartmentaization. Muscles are comprised of bundles with separate and distinct nerve endings. The bundles are comprised of the muscle fibers. The all or none theory refers to a muscle fiber, but since a muscle fiber doesn't stretch the entire muscle, that argument is null and void.

Are you suggesting you can't emphasize a part of a muscle? If so, you're disagreeing with accepted science and the entire bodybuilding community. Whether he ought to be emphasizing at this point or not is of course another debate, but he didn't ask that.

your not training your inner chest. your training your pectoralis major, and 'developing' the inner most part if you will. there is not an inner chest muscle that you can isolate

i kinda of half agree with this chest theory cuz you cant just isolate the "inner chest" and make that grow it is all one muscle everyones chest muscles will develope differently some peoples "inner chest" will stick out more than other but there are some exercises that will work the inside of that one whole muscle rather than some just like incline will work the top of the pec but its still just your pecs its all going to grow as one, so yeah thats my little spool but some that will work your "inner chest" more will be reverse grip bench and cross body press those are two i do with my chest routine that i feel a little more on the inside... hope this helps

the chest is made up of the major and minor. the major has 2 head and minor has 3 and they all move together u cant target just one part u have to do specific lift to make most of the effort to come from the certain part of the chest like u would with ur triceps or ur shoulders try using cable machines and dumbbell flys
