Document Summary

Muscles of the upper & lower limbs, the pectoral & pelvic girdles. Act in combinaion to ix the shoulder girdle (mostly the scapula) and move it to increase range of arm movements. Acions: elevaion, depression, rotaion, lateral & medial movements, protracion, retracion. 2 groups of muscles anterior & posterior. Join the shoulder girdle to the axial skeleton. Rib 1-8 to anterior vertebral border of scapula. Holds scapula to chest wall (boxers muscle) Occiput, ligamentum nuchae & vertebrae (c7 to t12) to clavicle & scapula (acromion & scapular spine) Vertebrae (c7 to t5) to scapula (medial border) Aid in scapula movements (adducts scapula and performs downwards rotaion) Squaring shoulders ( ), rotaion when lowering arm. 9 muscles cross the shoulder joint to insert on and move the humerus. Some originate of the scapula; others originate of the axial skeleton. Prime mover of arm abducion (away from axial) when all ibers used.
