Shoulder Girdle PT.2
Cards in this deck (11)
- 1What are the functions/features of the SG Muscles?-Stabilizes the Scapula
-Stable Base for Shoulder Joints
-Activates to maintain normal Scapula static position - 2What are more functions/features of the SG Muscles? PT.2-Activates SG to enhance Shoulder Joint movements
-SG muscles all originate on the Axial Skeleton & Insert on the Scapula and Clavicle - 3What are the Anterior SG muscles?-Pectoralis Minor
-Serratus Anterior - 4What are the Posterior SG muscles?●Levator Scapulae
●Rhomboids(Rhomboideus)
●Trapezius(Upper, middle, & lower fibers) - 5Describe the characteristics of the Pectoralis Minor?!Origin➣ Is at the Anterior Surface of the 3rd to 5th rib
Insertion➣ Coracoid Process of the Scapula
Actions➣ ●Protraction(abduction)
●Downward Rotation ●Depression
Applications - Pushing with the Hands - 6Describe the characteristics of the Pectoralis Minor?! PT.2Stretching➣ ●By a doorway stretch in a wall push-up position
●Thoracic Extension(with towel/elevated foam block) lying supine, hands hyperflexed with partner or weight pulling down against gravity into retraction of the Scapula. - 7Describe the characteristics of the Pectoralis Minor?! PT.3Strengthening ➣ ●Set into depression of the SG, rotating Scapula downward from an upwardly rotated position.
●Pushing the body upward in dip bars or body dips from a chair/bench. - 8What characteristics does the Serratus Anterior have?Origin➣ ●At the ribs; anterior lateral position
●Surface of Upper 9 Ribs at side of the Chest
Insertion➣ Anterior Aspect(Surface) of whole length of the Medial border of the Scapula.
Actions➣ Protraction & Upward rotation of SG - 9What characteristics does the Serratus Anterior have? PT.2Innervation➣ Long Thoracic nerve(C5-C7) ●"Winging Scapula" is damage to long thoracic nerve & weakness in serratus anterior muscle.
Application➣ Throwing a baseball, shooting or guarding in basketball, tackling in football. - 10What characteristics does the Serratus Anterior have? PT.3Stretching➣ ● Corner stretch or doorway stretch
Strengthening➣
●Performing protraction of SG(shoulder girdle) at top position of a Bench Press or Push-Up
●Performing protraction of SG during ●Fly/Crossover fly (called crossover)
