transverse abdominis
triceps brachii (long head)
rectus abdominis
triceps brachii (medial head)
triceps brachii ((lateral head)
Chest & Neck
brachialis
xiphihumeralis
pectoralis major
Upper Leg
pectoralis minor
biceps femoris
pectoantebrachialis
semitendinosus
serratus ventralis (anterior)

muscle in human (trapezius).
