Lat dorsi action
Addicts
Extends
Rotates arm medically (IR)
Serratus posterior superior o and i
O: ligamentum nuchae
Supraspinous ligament
Spines of C7-T3
I: upper border of ribs 2-5
Serratus posterior superior innervation
Serratus posterior inferior innervation
SPS: first 4 intercostal nerves
SPI: last 4 intercostal nerves
Serratus posterior superior action
Serratus posterior inferior action
SPS: elevates ribs
SPI: depresses ribs
Serratus posterior inferior o and i
O: supraspinous lig
Spines T11-L3
I: lower border of ribs 9-12
Serratus anterior o and i

Erector Spinae muscles action
Bilaterally they all help extend the head, cervical region, or thorax. Unilateral contraction causes sideward flexion or lateral bending and aid in twisting

Posterior scalene muscles o and i
O: transverse process C5-C7
I: upper surface of 2nd rib
Function of scalene muscles
Elevate the ribs during heave inspiration
Laterally bend neck and head to one side
Pec Major O and I
O: costal margin, sternum, medial clavicle
I: crest of greater tubercle of humerus

Pec minor fxn
Pull scapula down and anteriorly
Elevate ribs of scapula is fixed
Serratus anterior o and I
O: upper outer surface of ribs 1-8
I: medial angle, vertebral border, inf angle of scapula
Serratus anterior fxn
Pull scapula forward
