Over extended left arm/shoulder today exercising. having intermittent pain across left pectoral that changes in intensity and proximity?

Sounds like pectoral muscle strain. Rest, avoid painful activities, gentle stretching, OTC anti inflammatory meds if needed. Resume workouts gradually as symptoms resolve, modify workout to avoid recurrent injury. See your orthopedic doctor if any instability symptoms occur.
