ORIGIN: Mandible INSERTION: Hyoid bone ACTION: Elevates and retracts hyoid bone
Term
Pectoralis Major
Definition
ORIGIN: Clavicle, sternum, cartilage of ribs 1-6 INSERTION: Converge into humerus ACTION: arm flexion. Rotates arm. Pulls up chest.
Term
Serratus anterior

Term
Internal oblique
Definition
ORIGIN: Lumbar fascia, iliac crest INSERTION: pubic crest, last 3 ribs ACTION: Same as ab rectus. Also supports back muscles in rotation and lateral flexion
Term
Transverse abdominis
Definition
ORIGIN: iliac crest, last 5-6 ribs, lumbar fascia INSERTION: pubic crest ACTION: compress abdominal contents
Term
Trapezius
Definition
ORIGIN: occipital bone, C7 and thoracic vertebrae INSERTION: scapula, clavicle ACTION: extend head, raise, rotate and retract scapula, elevate scapula
Term
Latissimus dorsi
Definition
ORIGIN: lower six thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, last 3-4 rbs, iliac crest INSERTION: humerus ACTION: prime mover of arm extension. adducts and medially rotates arm, depresses scapula, brings arm down in power strokes
Term
Levator Scapulae
Definition
ORIGIN: C1-C4 INSERTION: scapula ACTION: Elevates and adducts scapula. Flexes neck to the side.
Term

ORIGIN: dorsal ilium, sacrum, coccyx INSERTION: femur, iliotibial tract ACTION: complex and powerful thigh extensor, antagonist of iliopsoas, laterally rotates and abducts thigh
Term
Gluteus medius
Definition
ORIGIN: ilium INSERTION: femur ACTION: abducts and medially rotates thigh, steadies pelvis during walking
Term
biceps femoris
Definition
ORIGIN: ischial tuberosity, linea aspera, distal femur INSERTION: fibula, tibia ACTION: extends thigh, laterally rotates leg, flexes knee
Term
