1) my tight pec could be purely a result of TOS (in other words, would I be able to correct things with a surgery on this side?)
2) people have found a way to make a chronically tight pec minor release of calm down for an extended period of time
3) if a pec minor tentonomy surgery permanently changes your ability to push/pull things. Is weight lifting, swimming, etc. completely out of the option afterward?
