Range of Motion
The Elbow does these Range of Motions.
Flexion, Extension, Supination, and Pronation
This muscle has the Origin of the Common flexor tendon, medial Epicondyle of the humerus and the Coronoid process of the Ulna
Pronator Teres
This muscle has the insertion of the Styloid Process of the Radius.
Brachioradialis
The Deltoid muscle does these 7 Actions.
Anterior fibers: Flex Shoulder, Medially Rotate shoulder, Horizontal Adduction shoulder. Posterior fibers: Extend shoulder, Laterally Rotate shoulder, Horizontal Abduction shoulder. All fibers: Abduct shoulder.
The Flexors of the forearm have this Origin.
Medial Epicondyle
The Scapula does can be moved in these Range of Motions.
Adduction (Retraction), Abduction (Protraction), Elevation, Depression, Upward Rotation, and Downward Rotation
This muscle has External surfaces of upper 8 or 9 ribs.
Serratus Anterior
This muscle has the Insertion of the Tuberosity and Coronoid Process of the Ulna.
Brachialis
This muscle has the actions of All fibers: Adduct shoulder, Medially rotate shoulder, Assist to elevate the Thorax during inhalation. Upper fibers: Flex shoulder, Horizontally Adduct shoulder. Lower fibers: Extend shoulder.
Pectoralis Major
The Forearm Extensors have this as their Origin.
Lateral Epicondyle
The Wrist can do these Range of Motions.
Flexion, Extension, Ulnar Deviation (Adduction), Radial Deviation (Abduction)
This muscle has a Short head and Long head Origin. The Short head Origin is the Coracoid Process of the Scapula. The Long head Origin is the Supraglenoid Tubercle of the Scapula.
Bicep Brachii
These three SITS/Rotator cuff muscles have the of Insertion of the Greater Tubercle of the Humerus.
Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus and Teres Minor and Subscapularis
The SITS muscles work together to do this.
Stabilize the head of the Humerus
This muscle has the same Origin as the Insertion of Trapezius.
Deltoid muscle
Which has the Origin of the Lateral 1/3rd of the Clavicle, the Acromion of the Scapula, and the Spine of the Scapula.
The Fingers can do these Range of motions.
Flexion, Extension, Adduction, Abduction, and Opposition of the Thumb
This muscle has a Long head, Lateral head and Medial head. The Long head Origin is the Infraglenoid Tubercle of the Scapula. The Lateral head is the Posterior Proximal 1/2 of the Humerus. The Medial head Origin is Posterior Distal 1/2 of the Humerus.
Tricep Brachii
This muscle has the Insertion of the Pisiform, Hook of Hamate, and Base of the 5th Metacarpal.
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
Latissimus Dorsi and Teres Major work together to do these 3 Actions.
Extend shoulder, Adduct shoulder, Medially rotate shoulder
These four muscles form the SITS or Rotator Cuff muscles.
Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, and Subscapularis
The Shoulder does these Range of Motions.
Flexion, Extension, Hyperextension, Adduction, Abduction, Medial Rotation, Lateral Rotation, Horizontal Adduction, and Horizontal Abduction
This muscle has these 5 Origins of: Inferior Angle of the Scapula, Spinous Process of the last 6 Thoracic Vertebrae, Last 3 to 4 ribs, Thorocolumbar Aponeurosis, and the Posterior Iliac Crest
Latissimus Dorsi
These muscles attach to the Bases of the Metacarpals.
Extensor Carpi Ulnaris (Base of 5th Metacarpal), Extensor Digitorum (Bases, middle and Distal phalanges 2 to 5th), Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus (Base 2nd Metacarpal), and Flexor Carpi Radialis (Bases 2nd to 3rd Metacarpals).
The Serratus Anterior has these 5 actions.
Abduction of the Scapula, Upward Rotation of the Scapula, Depression of the Scapula, Hold the Scapula to the rib cage, and Elevate thorax during inhalation
This muscle is the little helper to Latissimus Dorsi.
Teres Major
