The pectoralis major, teres major, lastissimus dorsi, and the carica adduct and medially, or internally, rotate the humerus.
Lat. dorsi Pec major Subscapularis
humerus
The major muscle that abducts the humerus is the Deltoid. (all muscles move in conjuction, there may be more muscles that contribute to the abduction of the humerus) pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi
latissimus dorsi, supra spinatus , infra spinatus , teres minor , pectoralis major, teres major, brachialis , coracobrachialis, brachioradialis, pronator teres, common origin of flexors, extensor carpi radialis longus, common origin of extensors,
The rotator cuff muscles: Supraspinatus Infraspinatus Teres Minor Supscapularis Easily remembered as SITS.
The major muscle that abducts the humerus is the Deltoid. (all muscles move in conjuction, there may be more muscles that contribute to the abduction of the humerus) pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi
humerus
Three muscles attach to the lesser tubercle of the humerus: subscapularis, teres major, and the supraspinatus.
1- Supraspinatus and its function is to abduct the arm ,and it's innervated by the Suprascapular nerve. 2- Infraspinatus muscle and its function is to externally rotate the arm ,and it's innervated by the Suprascapular nerve. 3- Teres minor muscle and its function is to externally rotate the arm ,and it's innervated by the Axillary nerve. 4- Subscapularis muscle and its function is to internally rotate the humerus ,and it's innervated by the Upper and Lower subscapular nerve.
