1. Deltoid Abducts the shoulder Posterior deltoid extends the shoulder Anterior deltoid flexes the shoulder

2. Biceps Brachii Flexes the elbow Supination of the forearm and shoulder

3. Brachioradialis Flexes the elbow

4. Origin: infraspinatus fossa of scapula Insertion: Greater tubercle of the humerus Action: Lateral rotation of the shoulder (humerus), horizontal adduction of the humerus (shoulder) Infraspinatus Muscle

5. Supraspinatus Origin: Supraspinatus fossa of the scapula Insertion: The greater tubercle of the humerus Action: Abduction of the shoulder (humerus) and stabilizes the shoulder joint

6. Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Origin: medial epicondyle of humerus and olecranon process of ulna Insertion: Base of the fifth metacarpal Action: Flexes wrist; acts with Extensor carpi ulnaris to adduct wrist

7. Teres minor: lateral (external) rotation of humerus

8. Extensor carpi ulnaris: extends and adducts the wrist Flexor carpi ulnaris: flexes wrist and abducts the wrist Extersor carpi ulnaris Flexor carpi ulnaris Extersor carpi ulnaris Flexor carpi ulnaris

9. Triceps brachii: extends elbow and shoulder

10. Trapezius Elevates, depresses, and retracts the scapula. When they both act together, draws head dorsally (backwards).

11. Latissimus Dorsi Adducts and extends the shoulder (humerus) Rotates the shoulder (humerus) Draws the shoulder down and backward.

12. Extensor Carpi Radialis Extends and abducts the wrist. Acts with the flexor carpi radialis to abduct the wrist.

13. Subscapularis: Medial internal and lateral external rotation of the humorous bone; stabilizes shoulder

14. Brachialis: flexes elbow

15. Flexor Carpi Radialis: flexes and abducts wrist
