1
Deltoid Origin: Anterior surface, lateral clavicle, acromion process and spine of scapula Insertion: Deltoid tubercle of humerus Action: Abducts humerus; aids in flexion, extension, and internal and external rotation
2
Supraspinatus Origin: Supraspinous fossa
Insertion: Greater tubercle of humerus Action: Abducts humerus
3
Infraspinatus Origin: Infraspinous fossa
Insertion: Greater tubercle of humerus Action: Rotates humerus laterally
4
Teres Minor Origin: Axillary border of scapula
Insertion: Greater tubercle of humerus Action: Rotates humerus laterally
5
Teres Major Origin: Axillary border at inferior angle of scapula
Insertion: Intertubular groove of humerus Action: Extends, adduction and medial rotates humerus.
6
Subscapularis Origin: Subscapular fossa
Insertion: Lesser tubercle of humerus Action: Rotates humerus medially
7
Biceps Brachii Short Head Origin: Long head, supraglenoid tubercle; Short head, coracoid process scapula Insertion: Radial tuberosity of the radius Action: Flexes radius and humerus, and supinates forearm Long Head
8
Coracobrachialis Origin: Coracoid process of scapula
Insertion: Middle third of humerus Action: Flexes and adducts humerus
9
Triceps Brachii Long Head Lateral Head Origin: Long head, infraglenoid tubercle; Lateral head, proximal portion of posterior humerus; Medial head, distal half of posterior humerus Insertion: Olecranon process of ulna Action: Extends humerus and ulna
10
Brachialis Origin: Anterior distal two-thirds of humerus
Insertion: Coronoid process of ulna Action: Flexes ulna
11
Pronator Teres Origin: Medial epicondyle of humerus and coronoid process of ulna Insertion: Middle portion of radius Action: Pronates and flexes forearm Anterior, Superficial Layer
12
Flexor Carpi Radialis Origin: Medial epicondyle of humerus
Insertion: Base of second metacarpal Action: Flexes wrist and elbow and abducts wrist Anterior, Superficial Layer
13
Palmaris Longus Origin: Medial epicondyle of the humerus
Insertion: Palmar aponeurosis Action: Weak flexion of wrist, tenses skin of palm Anterior, Superficial Layer
14
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Origin: Medial epicondyle of humerus, olecranon process, & posterior ulna Insertion: Pisiform, hamate, and fifth metacarpal Action: Flexes and adducts wrist Anterior, Superficial Layer
15
Brachioradialis Origin: Lateral supracondylar ridge
Insertion: Styloid process of radius Action: Flexes forearm Posterior, Superficial Layer
16
Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus
Origin: Lateral supracondylar ridge of humerus Insertion: Second metacarpal Action: Extends and abducts hand Posterior, Superficial Layer
17
Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis
Origin: Lateral epicondyle of humerus Insertion: Third metacarpal Action: Extends and abducts hand Posterior, Superficial Layer
18
Extensor Digitorum Origin: Lateral epicondyle of humerus
Insertion: Into distal phalanx by 4 tendons Action: Extends fingers and hand Posterior, Superficial Layer
19
Extensor Carpi Ulnaris
Origin: Lateral epicondyle of humerus and posterior border of ulna Insertion: Fifth metacarpal Action: Extends and adducts hand Posterior, Superficial Layer
