Trapezius
CNXI accessory spinal n.
elevate, retract, and upward rotation of scapula
Latissimus Dorsi
thoracodorsal n. -extend humerus -adduct humerus -medially rotate humerus (like swimming stroke prevents upward displacement of shoulder while hanging

retract, elevate downward rotation of scapula
rhomboid minor
dorsal scapular n
retract, elevate, downward rotation of scapula
serratus anterior
long thoracic n.
protract scapula, upward rotation of scapula
deltoid
axillary n
