Gravity
Prime mover of scapular inferior rotation
Latissimus Dorsi
Prime mover of scapular superior rotation
Trapezius and serratus anterior
Prime mover of scapular protraction

Trapezius
Origin of trapezius
Occipital one, spinous process of C7-T12
Insertion of trapezius
Lateral 1/3 of clavicle, scapular spine, acromion process
Action of trapezius
Depends on fibers activated

Innervation for trapezius
Accessory nerve (CN XI)
Origin of latissimus dorsi
Spinous process T7-12
Insertion of latissimus dorsi
Intertubercular sulcus of humerus
Action of latissimus dorsi
Adduction, extension, and medial rotation of humerus (toilet paper muscle)
Innervation of latissimus dorsi
Thoracodorsal nerve
Origin of levator scapulae
Transverse processes of C1-4

Innervation of rhomboid minor
Dorsal scapular nerve
Origin of rhomboid major
Spinous processes of T2-5
Insertion of rhomboid major
Medial border of scapula inferior to scapular spine
Action of rhomboid major
Elevation and retractions
