    The muscle which can 'cancel' or to some degree reverse the action of the muscle. Muscle synergies are noted in parentheses when relevant. O (Occurrences) Number of times that the named muscle row occurs in a standard human body. Here it may also be denoted when a given muscles only occurs in a male or a female body.

  3. Biceps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The biceps is a particularly powerful supinator of the forearm due to the distal attachment of the muscle at the radial tuberosity, on the opposite side of the bone from the supinator muscle. When flexed, the biceps effectively pulls the radius back into its neutral supinated position in concert with the supinator muscle. [14]: 346–347

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_muscle

    The origin of a muscle is the bone, typically proximal, which has greater mass and is more stable during a contraction than a muscle's insertion. [14] For example, with the latissimus dorsi muscle, the origin site is the torso, and the insertion is the arm. When this muscle contracts, normally the arm moves due to having less mass than the torso.

  5. Skeletal muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscular

    Muscular activity accounts for much of the body's energy consumption. All muscle cells produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules which are used to power the movement of the myosin heads. Muscles have a short-term store of energy in the form of creatine phosphate which is generated from ATP and can regenerate ATP when needed with creatine ...

  6. Supinator muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supinator_muscle

    Supinator always acts together with biceps, except when the elbow joint is extended. [7] It is the most active muscle in forearm supination during unresisted supination, while biceps becomes increasingly active with heavy loading. [8] Supination strength decreases by 64% if supinator is disabled by, for example, injury. [9]

  7. Muscular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscular_system

    The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle. It permits movement of the body, maintains posture, and circulates blood throughout the body. [1] The muscular systems in vertebrates are controlled through the nervous system although some muscles (such as the cardiac muscle) can be

  8. Anatomical terms of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_motion

    In general, motion is classified according to the anatomical plane it occurs in. Flexion and extension are examples of angular motions, in which two axes of a joint are brought closer together or moved further apart. Rotational motion may occur at other joints, for example the shoulder, and are described as internal or external.

  9. Brachialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachialis_muscle

    The brachialis muscle is innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve, which runs on its superficial surface, between it and the biceps brachii. [2] However, in 70-80% of people, the muscle has double innervation with the radial nerve (C5-T1). The divide between the two innervations is at the insertion of the deltoid. [3]
