Flexion
Antagonist Supination
Pronation
Antagonist Inversion
Eversion
Antagonist plantarflexion
Dorsiflexion
Which muscles are involved in the flexion of the vertebral column (which ones are not?)
Muscles that flex the vertebral column
Rectus Abdominis External Oblique Internal Oblique Psoas / Iliacus (with insertion fixed) Muscles of the spine are not involved, it is the abdominals involved in flexion, Spine is responsible for extention / upright
Which muscles are involved in the rotation of the vertebral column (which ones are not?)
External Obilque (opposite side) Internal Oblique (same side) Multifidi / Rotatores (Opposite side)
Insertion of longissimus capitis
Lower 9 ribs, Transerse process all the way to Mastoid Process
Order of the erector spinae group from medial to lateral
Iliocostalis, Longissimus, Spinalis
Semispinalis capitis insertion
Between the superior and inferior nuchal lines of the occiput
Suboccipital muscles that rock and tilt the head back into extension
Rectus Capitis Posterior Major
Rectus Capitis Posterior Minor
Obliquus Capitis Superior
Suboccipital actions
Rock and tilt the head back into extension (except Obilquus capitis inferior)
Rotate head to same side Rectus Capitis Posterior Major, Obliquus Capitis Inferior
Rectus capitis posterior major and oblique capitis actions
Rotate head to the same side
Quadratus lumborum origin and insertion
O: Posterior Iliac Crest
I: 12th Rib, Transverse Processes of L1-L4 Vertebrae
Internal oblique actions
Laterally flex to one side (Unilaterally)
Rotate the vertebral column to the same side (unilaterally)
Flex the vertebral column (bilaterally)
Compress abdominal contents (bilaterally)
Internal intercostals actions
