The deltoids, commonly referred to as "delts," are a group of three muscles located in the upper arm and shoulder area. They are responsible for the rounded contour of the shoulder and play a key role in arm movements, including lifting and rotating. The deltoids consist of three distinct parts: the anterior (front), lateral (side), and posterior (rear) deltoids. Together, they allow for a wide range of motion in the shoulder joint.
