4
Overview Functions of Muscles Muscle Classification Muscle Groups
5
Functions of Muscles Responsible for body movement Stabilizing joints Posture Heat production
6
Muscle Classification
7
Skeletal Muscle Attached to skeleton Voluntary or striated muscle Tendons and body Contract rapidly and vigorously Tires easily
8
Smooth Muscle Have no striations/involuntary muscle Lines internal organs and blood vessels No control Found in: digestive tract urinary bladder bronchi of the lungs
9
Cardiac (Heart) Muscle Found in only one place in the body Hybrid muscle Actions involuntary like smooth muscle
10
Muscle Components/Movement Muscle Components Origin - stationary attachment of muscle to skeleton Insertion - the point where the action of the muscle is applied, resulting in motion
11
Muscle Groups Major muscle groups Thoracic muscle Diaphragm Rectus abdominus
12
Muscle Groups - Anterior Sternocleidomastoid (neck) Pectoralis Major (arms) Muscles of the Abdominal Girdle Rectus Abdominis, External and Internal Obliques, Transversus Abdominis
13
Muscle Groups – Posterior Trapezius Brachi Latissimus Dorsi Erector Spinae Deltoid
14
Muscle Groups - Upper Limb Biceps Brachii Triceps Brachii
15
Muscle Groups - Lower Limb Gluteus Maximus Gluteus Medius Quadriceps Group (Anterior) Hamstring Group (Posterior)
16
Muscle Groups - Muscles of the Ankle and Foot Tibialis Anterior Peroneus Muscles Gastrocnemius
