“MUSCLE MOVEMENTS” 1.Flexion: Decrease the joint angle 2.Extension: increase joint angle 3.Abduction: move away from the midline 4.Adduction: move toward the midline 5.Rotation: Medial Rotation: spinning of the bone toward midline Lateral Rotation: spinning of the bone away from midline 6.Protraction: Push forward (neck and shoulder) 7.Retraction: Pull backward (neck and shoulder) 8.Depression: Bring downward (shoulder/scapula) 9.Elevate: Bring upward (shoulder/scapula) GCgaoRdeaUhttps:// GCgaoRdeaU (Watch Video)
“ORIGIN AND INSERTION" Origin – where the fixed end of the muscle attaches to the bone (cartilage or connective tissue) Insertion – where the movable end of the muscle attaches to another structure
STERNOCLEIDOMASTOID Origin: sternum and clavicle Insertion: mastoid process Movement: flex and laterally rotates neck
PECTORALIS MAJOR Origin: sternum and clavicle Insertion: humerus Movement: flexes shoulder, medially rotates arm, adducts arm
DELTOID Origin: clavicle, scapula Insertion: humerus Movement: flexion, abduction, extension of shoulder
EXTERNAL OBLIQUE Origin: ribs Insertion: pelvis Movement: flexion at the hips and spine
BICEPS BRACHII Origin: scapula Insertion: radius Movement: forearm flexion and supination
TRICEPS BRACHII Origin: scapula and humerus Insertion: ulna Movement: extends forearm
LATISSIMUS DORSI Origin: thoracic vertebra, ribs, pelvis Insertion: humerus Movement: extends, adducts, medially rotates shoulder
QUADRICEPS FEMORIS Origin: pelvis, femur Insertion: patella and tibia Movement: extends knee, flexes hip
HAMSTRINGS Origin: pelvis Insertion: tibia and fibula Movement: extends hip, flexes knee, medially and laterally rotates leg
“NAMING MUSCLES” Biceps: 2 origins Triceps: 3 origins Quadriceps: 4 origins 1. )Number of Origins: (the end of the muscles that does not move)
2. DIRECTION OF MUSCLE FIBERS Rectus: muscles are parallel to the body Transverse: muscles are perpendicular to the body Oblique: muscles are at an angle to the body
3. SHAPE Deltoid: delta shape Trapezius: trapezoid shape Orbicularis oculi: circular Serratus Anterior: “saw toothed” Teres major: long and round
4. LOCATION- BASED ON THE LOCATION Zygomaticus major: zygomatic bone Frontalis: frontal bone Orbicularis “Oculi”: eye Temporalis: temporal bone
5. ORIGIN & INSERTION The muscles is has the name of the place it begins (origin) and the place it inserts (insertion) in its name. Sternocleidomastoid Sterno= sternum Cleido= clavicle Mastoid= mastoid process of temporal bone
6. SIZE Maximus: large muscle Gluteus Maximus Medius: moderate size Gluteus Medius Minimus: small muscle Gluteus Minimus Longus: long muscle Extensor Digitorum Longus Brevis: short muscle Extensor Digitorum Brevis
7. ACTION The movement that occurs when the muscle contracts. Adductor Longus Abductor digiti minimi Extensor Digitorum Flexor Digitorum
