upper chest muscles?
hey, im new here and looking for advice. After years of being skinny i finally got sick of myself(not in a bad way)of being like that. So 3-4 weeks ago i made a vow to bulk up, well ive been going to our school's weight room 3 days a week for 1hr each time. Im seeing great results(the best was when i actually had a noticable set of pex). But now i want to target some areas, especially my upper chest(near the collarbone). I do alot of chest excersizes but cant seem to get muslce there, im only gaining muscle near my breast plate(center of chest). What do i do to get muscle near the collar bone?
thanks

Forget chest exerises...really!
If you are looking to build bulk at the collarbone/clavicle, focus on front shoulder presses. Incline becnh presses will also focus on that area.
Remember, muscles either ALL contract or they ALL don't. So don't get too caught up in that area. Mass will come....

yeah do shoulder exercises, you can do barbell shoulder presses, dumbell presses between 80 and 45 degrees, 80 is almost all shoulders (and triceps too obviously) and 45 is more upper chest, focus on presses and make sure you have off days for muscle growth which it seems like you do
