What are the names of some of the muscles in the body?

2

Parts of a skeletal muscle

• Origin : the attachment site on the stationary bone.

• Insertion : the attachment site on the moving bone.

• Belly : the fleshy portion between the origin and insertion.

When you do a biceps curl, what muscles are used?

6

Group Action

• Movement usually requires several muscles working together.

• Also, most muscles are arranged in opposite pairs at a joint. – Ex. flexors - extensors, – and abductors - adductors

Agonist

• The muscle that produces the desired movement.– Ex. Biceps Brachii is the agonist of elbow

flexion.

8

10

Antagonist

• The muscle that is relaxing as the agonist contracts.– The triceps brachii is the antagonist of the

biceps brachii.

9

11

Synergists

• A muscle that assists the agonist (prime mover) and help stabilize the joint being moved.

10

12

Fixators

• Muscles that stabilize the origin of the prime mover so the prime mover can work more efficiently.– Ex: shoulder muscles during a bicep curl

How do anatomists name muscles?

Naming muscles

• Many of the muscles of the body are named on their appearance, where it is located or what it does.

18

Direction of muscle fibers

• Names are based on the direction of the muscle fibers relative to the midline of the body.

16

19

Rectus

• means the fibers run parallel to the midline

20

Transverse

• means the fibers run perpendicular to the midline

21

Oblique

• means the fibers run diagonally to the midline.

22

Location

• named after a structure the muscle is found near

• Ex: The tibialis anterior is found anterior to the tibia.

• Ex: The Frontalis is near the frontal bone• Ex: Sternocleidomastoid (SCM) runs from

the sternum and clavicle up to the mastoid process of the temporal bone.
