and spread over a broad area at the other end in a fan-shape.Convergent muscles, such as the pectoralis major in humans, have a weaker pull on theattachment site compared to other parallel fibers due to their broad nature. Thesemuscles are considered versatile because of their ability to change the direction of pulldepending on how the fibers are contracting.

Typically, convergent muscles experience varying degrees of fiber strain. This is largely due to the different lengths and varying insertion
