What is the origin and insertion point for the deltoids?

The deltoid is very interesting muscle. It arise from the outer and lateral border of the clavicle and outer and lateral border of the spine of the scapula. From the corresponding inner border, you have insertion of the trapezius muscle. The deltoid muscle is inserted on the deltoid tuberosity on the lateral and middle part of the humerus bone. So it looks that the trapezius muscle continue as the deltoid muscle.

Where are the origins and insertions of the deltoid muscles?

The deltoid muscle looks like a large "D" covering the shoulder. There are three parts to it: The anterior deltoid which is commonly called front delts, The lateral deltoids or side delts, and the posterior deltoid or rear delts. The anterior deltoid's (front delts') origin is the clavicle, the lateral's (side delts') origin is the acromion process of the scapula and the posterior's (rear delts') origin is the spine of the scapula. The insertion for all is the deltoid tuberosity on the humerus.
