Skeletal Muscles: Functional Groups
1. Prime movers
•
Provide the major force for producing a
specific movement
2. Antagonists
•
Oppose or reverse a particular movement

Skeletal Muscles: Functional Groups
3. Synergists
•
Add force to a movement
•
Reduce undesirable or unnecessary
movement
4. Fixators
•
Synergists that immobilize a bone or
muscle’s origin
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
Naming Skeletal Muscles
1. Location —bone or body region associated with
the muscle
2. Shape —e.g., deltoid muscle (deltoid = triangle)
3. Relative size —e.g., maximus (largest), minimus
(smallest), longus (long)
4. Direction of fibers or fascicles —e.g., rectus
(fibers run straight), transversus, and oblique
(fibers run at angles to an imaginary defined axis)
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
Naming Skeletal Muscles
5. Number of origins —e.g., biceps (2 origins) and
triceps (3 origins)
6. Location of attachments —named according to
point of origin or insertion
7. Action —e.g., flexor or extensor, muscles that
flex or extend, respectively

Muscle Mechanics: Arrangement of Fascicles
1. Circular
• Fascicles arranged in concentric rings (e.g.,
orbicularis oris)
2. Convergent
• Fascicles converge toward a single tendon insertion
(e.g., pectoralis major)
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
Muscle Mechanics: Arrangement of Fascicles
3. Parallel
• Fascicles parallel to the long axis of a straplike
muscle (e.g., sartorius)
4. Fusiform
• Spindle-shaped muscles with parallel fibers (e.g.,
biceps brachii)
5. Pennate
• Short fascicles attach obliquely to a central tendon
running the length of the muscle (e.g., rectus
femoris)

Muscle Mechanics: Lever Systems
• Components of a lever system
• Lever —rigid bar (bone) that moves on a fixed
point or fulcrum (joint)
• Effort —force (supplied by muscle contraction)
applied to a lever to move a resistance (load)
• Load —resistance (bone + tissues + any
added weight) moved by the effort
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
Effort x length of effort arm = load x length of load arm
(force x distance) = (resistance x distance)

In the body: A first-class lever system

the atlanto-occipital joint is the fulcrum,

In the body: Second-class leverage is
exerted when you stand on tip-toe. The
effort is exerted by the calf muscles
pulling upward on the heel; the joints of
the ball of the foot are the fulcrum; and
the weight of the body is the load.

Major Skeletal Muscles of the Body
• Grouped by function and location
• Information for each muscle
• Name and description —note information in the name
• Origin and insertion —there is usually a joint between the
origin and the insertion
• Action —insertion moves toward origin; best learned by
acting out muscle movement on one’s own body
• Innervation —name of major nerve that supplies the muscle

Muscles Crossing Hip and Knee Joints
• Most anterior muscles flex the femur at the hip
and extend the leg at the knee (foreswing of
walking)
• Most posterior muscles extend the thigh and
flex the leg (backswing of walking)
• Medial muscles all adduct the thigh
• All three groups are enclosed by the fascia
lata

Fascia of the Leg
• A deep fascia of the leg is continuous with the
fascia lata
• This fascia segregates the leg into three
compartments: anterior, lateral, and posterior
• Distally, the fascia thickens and forms the
flexor, extensor, and fibular retinaculae
