serratus anterior
The sternocleidomastoid muscle curves anteriorly and inferiorly from the clavicle.
The trachealis muscle is located on the posterior side of the trachea and allows the esophagus to expand anteriorly during swallowing.
The thyrohyoid muscle,as well as the elevator muscles lift the larynx anteriorly and superiorly.
The pectoralis major muscle is responsible for movements of the shoulder joint, such as flexion, adduction, and medial rotation of the arm. It also helps in stabilizing the shoulder joint during various activities like pushing, pulling, and lifting objects.
The scientific name for the shoulder muscle is the deltoid muscle.
It's true. Muscles can only contract and as such pull against something. Depending on what you're doing the "something" that a muscle pulls against is a lever that ends up pushing, but then the pushing pressure is caused when the muscle forces the lever (bone) to push outward. But muscle can either contract or relax... that's all it can do.
The deltoid muscle is located around the shoulder at the top. There is a deltoid muscle that is located on each shoulder.
The synergist to the pectoralis major muscle is the deltoid muscle. The deltoid helps to assist in shoulder flexion and abduction, which complements the actions of the pectoralis major in movements like pushing or pressing exercises.
which shoulder muscle allows you to adduct your arm
Yes, the shoulder press machine is effective for building shoulder strength and muscle. It targets the deltoid muscles in the shoulders and can help improve overall shoulder stability and muscle development.
the shoulder muscle extends the arm
To activate your serratus anterior muscle effectively, focus on exercises that involve protraction of the shoulder blades, such as push-ups, plank variations, and dumbbell punches. Ensure proper form and engage the muscle by consciously pushing your shoulder blades away from each other during the movement. Consistent practice and progressive overload will help strengthen and activate the serratus anterior muscle.
