Q

the motion of the deltoid and a pose that uses all parts of the deltoid

A

Action: Anterior part- Flexes and internally rotates arm
Middle part- Abducts arm
Posterior part- Extends and Externally rotates arm
When all work together the arm abducts and the anterior posterior parts steady the arm. (Except the first 15 degrees, supraspinatus).

Q

Rotator Cuff

A

Protects and Stabilizes the Joint
The tonic contraction holding the large head of the humerus in the small shallow
glenoid cavity during arm movements
Supraspinatus
Infraspinatus
Teres Minor
Subscapularis
Collectively the prime function during all movements of
the shoulder joint is to hold the head of the humerus in
the glenoid cavity of the scapula.

Inversion Foot, Plantar Flexion
Flexor Digitorum Longus: Flex toes 2-5,
Inversion Foot, Plantar Flexion
Posterior Tibialis: Inversion Foot, Plantar Flexion
Special—-popliteus: Does not Plantar Flex, it
unlocks (rotates) knee from full extension.
