Muscles
•
KEY POINTS:
1. Muscles only PULL on bones
2. Muscles only act on those joints which they cross
3. A muscle (usually) can not cause an opposite
action (e.g. flexion and extension)
4. Origin = stable end; closer to the body
5. Insertion = movable end; further from the body

Look to the name of the muscle for help
Flexor Carpi Radialis
Palmar surface
Origin:
medial condyle of the
humerus
Insertion:
base of the 2nd and 3rd
metacapals (palmar
surface)
Actions:
flexion of the wrist
abduction of the wrist
flexion of the elbow
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
Palmar
Origin:
medial condyle of the
humerus
Insertion:
pisiform, base of the 5th
metacarpal
Actions:
flexion of the wrist
adduction of the wrist
flexion of the elbow
Palmaris
Palmar
Origin:
Medial epicondyle
Insertion:
Palmar aponeurosis of 2-5
metacarapls
Action:
flexion of the wrist
weak flexion of the elbow
Flexor Digitorum
Superficialis
Palmar
Origin:
medial condyle of the humerus
ulnar head - medial coronoid area
radial head - radial tuberosity area
Insertion:
split tendons attach to the sides of
the middle phalanx of the four
fingers
Actions:
flexion of fingers, wrist and the
elbow (weak)
Flexor Digitorum
Profundus
• Palmar
• Origin:
– Upper, medial surface of the ulna
• Insertion:
– split tendons attach to distal phalanx of
the four fingers
• Actions:
– flexion fingers and wrist
Flexor Pollicus Longus
Palmar
Origin:
middle anterior surface of
the radius
Insertion:
base of the distal phalanx of
the thumb (palmar surface)
Actions:
flexion of wrist and thumb
Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus
Dorsal
Origin:
lateral condyle of the humerus
Insertion:
base of the 2nd metacarpal
Actions:
Extension of the wrist;
Abduction
Weak extension of the elbow
NOTE: Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis
will not be covered
Extensor Carpi Ulnaris

Extensor Digitorum
Dorsal
Origin:
lateral epicondyle of the
humerus
Insertion:
middle and distal phalanges of
the four fingers
Actions:
Extension of the fingers
Extension of the wrist
Weak extension of the elbow
Extensor Indicis
• Dorsal
• Origin:
– Distal, posterior ulna
• Insertion:
– middle and distal phalanxes of the
second phalange
• Actions:
– Extension of the 2nd finger
– Weak wrist extension
Extensor Digiti Minimi
• Dorsal
• Origin:
– Lateral epicondyle of the humerus
• Insertion:
– Base of the middle and distal
phalanxes of the 5th phalange
• Actions:
– Extension of the 5th finger
– Weak wrist extension
Extensor Pollicis Longus
Dorsal
Origin:
posterior lateral surface of the
distal ulna
Insertion:
base of the last phalanx of the
thumb (dorsal side)
Actions:
Extension of the wrist
Extension of the thumb
NOTE: The extensor pollicus brevis and
the abductor pollicus will not be covered.
