Major Skeletal Muscles: Anterior View
 The 40 superficial
muscles here are divided
into 10 regional areas of
the body
Figure 10.4b

Major Skeletal Muscles: Posterior View
 The 27 superficial
muscles here are divided
into seven regional areas
of the body
Figure 10.5b

Muscles: Name, and Action
 Name and description of the muscle – be alert to
information about the muscle given in the name
 Origin and insertion – there is always a joint between the
origin and insertion
 Action – best learned by acting out a muscle’s movement on
one’s own body

Muscles of Respiration
 The primary function of
deep thoracic muscles is
to promote movement
for breathing
 External intercostals –
more superficial layer
that lifts the rib cage and
increases thoracic
volume to allow
inspiration
Figure 10.10a

Muscles of Respiration
 Internal intercostals –
deeper layer that aids in
forced expiration
 Diaphragm – most
important muscle in
inspiration

Muscles Crossing the Elbow
Forearm extension
 The triceps brachii is the prime mover of forearm
extension
Forearm flexion
 Brachialis and biceps brachii are the chief forearm
flexors
 The brachioradialis acts as a synergist and helps
stabilize the elbow

Muscles of the Forearm
 The two functional forearm muscle groups are: those that cause
wrist movement, and those that move the fingers and the thumb
 These muscles insert via strong ligaments called flexor
retinacula and extensor retinacula
 Anteriomedial compartment - flexors and pronators
 Posterolateral compartment - extensors and supinator
 The pronator teres and pronator quadratus are not flexors, but
pronate the forearm
 The supinator muscle is a synergist with the biceps brachii in
supinating the forearm

Forearm:
Superficial
Anterior
Compartment
 These muscles are
primarily flexors
of the wrist and
fingers and
pronators

Muscles Crossing Hip and Knee Joints
Anterior compartment (most) muscles of the hip and thigh
flex the femur at the hip and extend the leg at the knee
 Extend the leg (anterior compartment)
Posterior compartment muscles of the hip and thigh extend
the thigh and flex the leg
 Flex and extend the thigh (posterior compartment)
Medial compartment muscles all adduct the thigh
 Adduct the thigh (medial compartment)
 These three groups are enclosed by the fascia lata

Movements of the Thigh at the Hip:
Flexion and Extension
 The most important thigh flexors are the iliopsoas (prime
mover), tensor fasciae latae, and rectus femoris
 The medially located adductor muscles and sartorius
assist in flexion

Flexion and Extension
 Thigh extension is primarily effected by the hamstrings
(biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus)
 Forceful extension is aided by the gluteus maximus

Other Movements
 Abduction and rotation are effected by the gluteus
medius and gluteus minimus, and are antagonized by the
lateral rotators
 Thigh adduction is the role of five adductor muscles
(adductor magnus, adductor longus, and adductor
brevis; the pectineus, and the gracilis)
