|
Its inferior portion covers the superior section of the latissimus dorsi. |
trapezius |
|
the main retractors/adductors of the scapula |
rhomboids (major & minor) |
|
the only muscles on the anterior side of the body that move or stabilize the scapula |
Serratus anterior & pectoralis minor |
|
_____________ is known as the “hugging” muscle. Weakness of this muscle can cause “winged scapula”.

|
|
Rounded shoulders |

For some shoulder girdle movements, the scapula must ________________________________. |
rotate or tilt on its axis |
|
Scapulohumeral Rhythm |
Scapular rotation that accompanies and facilitates humeral abduction.
