HOW DO SKELETAL MUSCLES
PRODUCE MOVEMENT? Exert force on tendons Tendons cross joint(s) Joints act as the fulcrum of a lever system Origin versus insertion Gaster (belly) coracoid process bellies of biceps brachii origins (heads) of biceps brachii radius insertion of biceps brachii

GROUP MOVEMENTS Prime mover (agonist) Antagonist Synergist(s)
Fixator(s) FLEXORS biceps brachii brachialis EXTENSORS triceps brachii
