Study Notes
Rectus Abdominis
- Originates from the pubic crest and pubic symphysis.
- Inserts at the xiphoid process and the costal cartilages of the 5th, 6th, and 7th ribs.
- Functions to flex and rotate the vertebral column.
External Oblique
- Originates from the outer surfaces of the lower 8 ribs.
- Inserts into the linea alba via aponeurosis, pubic crest, tubercle, and iliac crest.
- Acts to flex the vertebral column, compress the abdominal wall, and rotate the trunk laterally.
Internal Oblique
- Originates from the lumbar fascia, iliac crest, and inguinal ligament.
- Inserts into the linea alba, pubic crest, last 3-4 ribs, and costal margin.
- Functions to flex the vertebral column, compress the abdominal wall, and rotate the trunk.
Transverse Abdominis
- Originates from the cartilage of the last 6 ribs, lumbar fascia, iliac crest, and inguinal ligament.
- Inserts at the linea alba and pubic crest.
- Works to compress abdominal contents.
Platsyma
- Originates from the skin over the lower neck, upper lateral chest, and pectoral muscles.
- Inserts at the lower margin of the mandible.
- Functions to tense the neck and depress the mandible.
Sternohyoid
- Originates from the sternum (manubrium) and clavicle.
- Inserts at the lower margin of the hyoid bone.
- Acts to depress the hyoid bone and larynx.
Sternocleidomastoid
- Originates from the sternum (manubrium) and medial point of the clavicle.
- Inserts at the mastoid process of the temporal bone and superior nuchal line of the occipital bone.
- Functions to flex and laterally rotate the cervical spine, move the head, and extend the neck.
Rhomboids
- Originates from the spinous processes of C7-T1 (minor) and T2-T5 (major).
- Inserts at the medial border of the scapula.
- Stabilizes the scapula.
Trapezius
- Originates from the occipital bone, ligamentum nuchae, and spinous processes of C7-T12.
- Inserts continuously along the acromion, spine of scapula, and clavicle.
- Functions to stabilize, rotate, retract, and raise the scapula.
Latissimus Dorsi
- Originates from T6-L5 vertebrae, lower 3-4 ribs, iliac crest, and scapula.
- Inserts into the intertubercular groove of the humerus.
- Performs arm extension, adduction, and medial rotation.
Iliocostalis
- Originates from the iliac crest, inferior 6 ribs, and ribs 3-6.
- Inserts at the angles of the ribs and transverse processes of C4-C6.
- Functions to extend and laterally flex the spine.
Longissimus
- Originates from the transverse processes of lumbar through cervical vertebrae.
- Inserts at the transverse processes of cervical and thoracic vertebrae and the mastoid process.
- Acts to extend and laterally flex the spine, and to extend the head while turning the face towards the same side.
Quadratus Lumborum
- Originates from the iliac crest and lumbar fascia.
- Inserts at the 12th rib and transverse processes of L1-L4.
- Functions to flex the vertebral column laterally, maintain upright posture, and assist in forced inspiration.
Intercostals
- Originates from the superior surface of the rib above.
- Inserts into the rib below.
- Functions to draw the ribs together and depress the rib cage during expiration.
