Firming the outer/lower pec?
I have been back into lifting & cardio for 2 years after a long hiatus. I have made some great advances like losing 30 lbs of fat and adding 25 lbs of muscle. I am pretty happy with my overall body shape at 5ft 7in and 195 lbs, though I would like to get down to 185, except I have this kind of flabby outer and lower pec. What would be the best approach to address this area. Would you recommend building the middle to upper chest to lift up the skin, or focus more specifically on excercises that would build the outer/lower pec
?
I appreciate any and all advise.

P-funk, sorry about posting to the wrong forum. I know the pec is one muscle, but depending on your excercise it can focus on different regions of the muscle right? Isn't that the basis for doing incline, flat, and decline presses?

nope, the basis for doing the different angles is to work in differnet planes of motion as well as stimulate other muscles to a graeter degree. like inclines will hit more anterior delt.
