The Shoulder Joint

Muscles of the Shoulder Joint Chapter 5

Anterior Shoulder Muscles Coracobrachialis Pectoralis Major Subscapularis

Coracobrachialis O: Coracoid process I: Anteromedial surface of midshaft of humerus Actions: Flexion Adduction of the shoulder Horizontal Adduction

Pectoralis Major Origin: Insertion: intertubercular groove Actions Medial two-thirds of clavicle Sternum Insertion: intertubercular groove Actions Upper fibers (Clavicular) Internal rotation Horizontal Adduction Flexion Adduction Lower fibers (Sternal) Internal Rotation Horizontal adduction Extension

Subscapularis O: Subscapular fossa I: Lesser tubercle and crest of humerus Actions: Internal Rotation Adduction Extension Stabilization Anterior Rotator Cuff Muscle.

Superior Shoulder Muscles Deltoid Supraspinatus

Deltoid Origin Insertion – deltoid tuberosity Actions Lateral 1/3 of clavicle (Anterior fibers) Acromion process (Middle fibers) Spine of scapula (Posterior fibers) Insertion – deltoid tuberosity Actions Anterior – Abduction, Flexion, Horizontal adduction, & Internal rotation. Middle – Abduction Posterior – Abduction, Extension, Horizontal abduction, & External rotation

Supraspinatus O: Supraspinous fossa I: Greater tubercle Action: Abduction Stabilization Superior Rotator Cuff Muscle. Most injuired rotator cuff muscle

Inferior Shoulder Muscles Latissimus Dorsi Teres Major

Latissimus Dorsi O: Spinous process of lower 6 thorasic and all lumbar and sacral vertebrae; iliac crest I: Intertubercular groove Actions: Adduction Extension Internal Rotation Horizontal Abduction

Teres Major O: Inferior angle of scapula I: Intertubercular groove Actions: Extension Adduction Internal rotation “Lats little helper”

Posterior Shoulder Muscles Infraspinatus Teres Minor

Infraspinatus O: Infraspinous fossa I: Greater tubercle Actions: External rotation Horizontal abduction Extension Stabilization Posterior Rotator Cuff Muscle Second most commonly injured rotator cuff muscle

Teres Minor O: Upper 2/3 of lateral border of scapula I: Greater tubercle Actions: External rotation Horizontal abduction Extension Stabilization Posterior Rotator Cuff Muscle
