disfigured chest muscle

[gruth88]

today after training, i realized the one of my pecs had become somwhat disfigured, with a bit of a dip in the middle with the outer part by the soulder significantly larger. It is not a pigeon chest, but my other pec is perfectly normal- is this common?

Pics?

I have exactly the same, right pec is alot worse than left but they both have it.

For a while I thought I had pectus excavatum but now, although I do have a slightly depressed sternum, I believe it is because I only used a bench press machine with an abnormal grip for a while. This led to only the outer parts of my chest growing and the inside staying exactly the same. My middle upper chest is still completely lacking although my lower middle chest has started to grow a little since I have been barbell benching with free weights.

Have you ever used bench press machines or anything that would cause an unnatural grip?

And pics would help.

its kinda hard to see in the picture, and i have been benching on a smith press (does that affect it?)

why smith press. planet fitness? Also the bigger your pecs get, the less you will care about how they look.

Smith machine is horrible... but it has nothing to do with your muscle shaping. Muscle shaping is determined by genetics.

[jlgruth878]

will they eventually fill out or am i genetically prone to having them stay like this?

Can't change your genetics. So, yes.
