Attachment to Bone
Two forms:
1. Direct (fleshy) attachment
– Ex. intercostal muscles
2. Indirect attachment
– E.x. biceps brachii
• Aponeurosis
– E.x. scalp, abdominal, lumbar, hand and foot muscles
• Retinaceum
– E.x. wrist
General Anatomy of Muscles
Origins
• Origin
Scapula
– stationary attachment
• Insertion
– mobile attachment Extensors:
Triceps brachii
• Belly
Long head
– thicker, middle region Lateral head
Origins
Humerus
Bellies
Flexors:
Biceps brachii
Brachialis
Insertion
Radius

Ulna
4 Types of Muscles
Classified according to their actions:
• Prime mover or agonist
– E.x. biceps brachii when elbow is flexed
• Synergist
– E.x. brachioradialis in flexing the elbow
• Antagonist
– E.x. triceps brachii in flexing the elbow
• Fixator
– E.x. muscles attached to scapula prevent its movement
when biceps brachii contracts
MUSCLES CANNOT PUSH – ONLY PULL!
5 Types of Muscles
Based on orientation of fascicles:
Pennate
Sphincter
Temporalis
(Quadriceps)
Sartorius
Gastrocnemius
Masseter
Orbicularis oris
Intrinsic and Extrinsic Muscles
• Intrinsic muscles (hand)
• Extrinsic muscles
• Seen in tongue, larynx, back, hands, and feet
Names of Muscles
• Terms used to name muscles
– levator = elevates a body part
– Inferior = bottom
– quadriceps = having 4 heads
– sternocleidomastoid = bones attached to
Biomechanics
Lever – an elongated, rigid object that rotates around a fixed point called
the fulcrum. Rotation occurs when an effort applied to one point on the
lever overcomes a resistance at some other point.
fulcrum – joint
effort – applied by a muscle
resistance – an object the body is working against
Mechanical Advantage (MA) – ratio of its output force to its input force
MA = LE/ LR
LE = the length of the effort arm
LR = the length of the resistance arm
If MA > 1.0 the lever produces more force but has less speed or distance
If MA < 1.0 the lever produces more speed or distance but less force
Types of Levers
First Class
• Fulcrum is in the middle
• Atlanto-occipital joint
Types of Levers
Second Class
• The resistance is in the middle
• Mandible
Types of Levers
Third Class
• The effort is applied in the middle
• The forearm when flexing the elbow
Range of Motion
• Degrees through which a joint can move
• Determined by:
– structure of the articular surfaces
– strength and tautness of ligaments, tendons and joint capsule
– action of the muscles and tendons
Resting muscle maintains a state of tension – muscle tone
