cscs muscle anatomy and function Flashcards
External Oblique
ACTION:
trunk rotation
FUNCTION:
compression of abdominal cavity, anti-rotation
Tibialis Posterior
ACTION:
plantarflex, invert
FUNCTION:
controls the medial longitudinal arch
Infraspinatus
ACTION:
External rotation
FUNCTION:
Glenohumeral Joint Stability
rotator cuff involves:
supraspinatius, infraspinatus,
teres minor
subscapularis
SITS
what muscles in the rotator cuff externally rotate the shoulder
under the scapula:
infraspinatus and teres minor
what muscles in the rotator cuff internally rotate the shoulder?
subscapularis
above spine of scapula
supraspinatus
supraspinatus
abductor of arm 15 degrees of motion
deltoid
multi-penneated muscle (fibers run all different ways)
shoulder muscle
serratus anterior
holds onto ribs,
upwardly rotates scapula
glute muscles
max: top - largest
med: side of hip- stability
min: underneath - small and deep
psoas
hip flexor muscle
attaches to lumbar spine through hip to femur.
knee muscles
quads:
rectus femoris
vastus lateralis
vastus medialis
knee bones
femur, patella, tibia, and fibula
rectus femoris
only quad muscle that helps with hip flexion. also does knee extension
