Phase 1 (60 GH and 30 Scap)

75

scapular upward rotation
Deltoid
Glenohumeral
What is the function of the middle Traps and Rhomboids with the scapula?

Middle Traps and Rhomboids contract _________ to control the change in position of the scapula produced by the upper and lower Trapezius and Serratus Anterior.
eccentrically
Paralysis of Rhomboids and Middle Traps causes what?
Disruption of scapulohumeral rhythm and may decrease range of motion
What does the Lats do to the scapula?

scapular depression
What does the Teres Major do to the Humerus?
Adducts, internally rotates, and extends it
Function of Teres Major on the scapula is strongly dependent on activity of the _______.
Rhomboids
Unopposed the Teres Major would _______ _______ the scapula. But the Rhomboids offset this force.
upwardly rotate
GH Dynamics (deltoid)?
