TRAPEZIUS origin: occipital bone, spines of C7, T1-12 insertion: acromion process, scapular spine, clavicle function: stabilizes scapula, extends head
INFRASPINATUS origin: posterior surface of scapula insertion: greater tubercle of humerus function: rotates arm laterally
RHOMBOID MAJOR origin: spines of upper thoracic vertebrae insertion: medial border of scapula function: raises and adducts scapula
LATISSIMUS DORSI origin: iliac crest insertion: intertubercular groove of humerus function: extends, adducts arm
PECTORALIS MAJOR origin: clavicle, sternum, 2nd-6th costal cartilages insertion: intertubercular groove function: flexes, extends arm
PECTORALIS MINOR origin: anterior surface 3-5 ribs insertion: coracoid process of scapula function: forward movement of scapula, or draws ribs superiorly
SERRATUS ANTERIOR origin: lateral side of ribs 1-8 insertion: anterior surface of scapula function: rotates scapula, abduction of arm
EXTERNAL INTERCOSTALS origin: inferior border, rib above insertion: superior border, rib below function: forced inhalation, lifts rib cage
INTERNAL INTERCOSTALS origin: superior border below rib insertion: inferior border above rib function: forced exhalation, squeezes ribs together
RECTUS ABDOMINIS origin: symphysis-pubis, crest of pubis insertion: xiphoid process, 5-7 costal cartilages function: flexes vertebral column
EXTERNAL OBLIQUE origin: lower eight ribs insertion: iliac crest function: lateral rotations, tenses abdomen
INTERNAL OBLIQUE origin: iliac crest insertion: lower three ribs function: lateral rotations, tenses abdomen
DELTOID origin: acromium process, spine of scapula, clavicle insertion: deltoid tuberosity function: abducts arm
TRICEPS BRACHII origin: scapula, proximal humerus insertion: olecranon process of ulna function: extends forearm
BICEPS BRACHII origin: scapula, coracoid process above glenoid fossa insertion: radial tuberosity function: flexes forearm, supinates hand
BRACHIORADIALIS origin: lateral supracondyle, humerus insertion: styloid process of radius function: forearm flexion
FLEXOR CARPI ULNARIS origin: olecranon process and medial condyle of humerus insertion: base of 5th metacarpal function: wrist flexor
GLUTEUS MAXIMUS origin: dorsal ilium, sacrum, coccyx insertion: proximal femur function: extends thigh
GLUTEUS MEDIUS origin: ilium insertion: greater trochanter of the femur function: abducts thigh
BICEPS FEMORIS origin: ischial tuberosity, distal femur insertion: head of fibula, lateral condyle of tibia function: extends thigh, flexes knee

SEMIMEMBRANOSUS origin: ischial tuberosity insertion: medial condyle of tibia function: extends thigh, flexes knee
SARTORIUS origin: anterior superior iliac spine insertion: medial proximal tibia function: rotates thigh laterally, flexes, abducts thigh, and flexes knee
GRACILIS origin: body of pubis insertion: medial tibia just below the medial condyle function: adducts thigh, flexes leg
RECTUS FEMORIS origin: anterior inferior iliac spine insertion: patella function: extends knee, flexes thigh
VASTUS LATERALIS origin: greater trochanter insertion: patella function: extends knee, stabilizes knee
VASTUS MEDIALIS origin: greater trochanter insertion: patella function: extends knee
VASTUS INTERMEDIALIS origin: proximal femur anterior insertion: patella function: extends knee
