You need to know ALL the muscles and their major actions. Memorize also the origins and insertions
in BOLD type. Use TopHat’s 3D body systems or Visible Body (through Randall Library) to look up
these muscles.
temporalis temporal and frontal bones mandible elevates and retracts mandible
latissimus dorsi spines of T7-L5, scapula, crests of humerus extends, adducts, rotates humerus medially
sacrum and ilium inferior 4 ribs draws humerus inferior and posterior
serratus anterior ribs 1-9 medial border of scapula rotates and abducts scapula
elevates ribs when scapula fixed
external abdominal ribs 5-12 linea alba from xiphoid to both sides compress abdomen;
oblique pubic symphysis one side alone bends vertebral column to that
side (lateral flexion)
tensor fasciae latae iliac crest tibia via the iliotibial band flexes, abducts, and medially rotates femur
sartorius anterior superior iliac spine medial tibial tuberosity flexes leg; flexes thigh and rotates it laterally,
crossing the leg
rectus femoris anterior inferior iliac spine tibial tuberosity extends knee, flexes hip
biceps brachii by two heads from scapula radius flexes, supinates forearm
flexes elbow
tibialis anterior lateral tibia 1st metatarsal dorsiflexes and inverts foot
medial cuneiform
triceps brachii by one head from scapula olecranon process of ulna extends forearm; extends arm
by two heads from humerus
gluteus maximus ilium ilitotibial tract (fascia lata) extends, abducts, and rotates femur laterally
sacrum greater trochanter of femur
coccyx
SELECTED SKELETAL MUSCLES FOR STUDY
gluteus medius ilium greater trochanter of femur abducts and rotates femur laterally
biceps femoris by one head from ischial head of fibula flexes knee
tuberosity lateral condyle of tibia extends hip
by one head from femur
gastrocnemius medial and lateral condyles calcaneus via the plantar flexes foot
of femur Achilles’ tendon flexes knee
