RHOMBOID MAJOR
ORIGIN
Spinous processes of T2-T5 and supraspinous ligaments
INSERTION
Lower half of posteromedial border of scapula, from angle to upper part of triangular area at base of scapular spine
ACTION
Retracts scapula. Rotates scapula to rest position
NERVE

ORIGIN
Iliolumbar ligament and posterior third of iliac crest
INSERTION
Inferior border of 12th rib
ACTION
Fixes 12th rib during respiration and lateral flexes (sidebends) trunk
NERVE
Anterior primary rami (T12-L3)
EXTERNAL ABDOMINAL OBLIQUE
ORIGIN
Anterior angles of lower eight ribs
INSERTION
aponeurosis of anterior rectus sheath
ACTION
Supports abdominal wall, assists forced expiration, aids raising intraabdominal pressure and, with muscles of opposite side, abducts and rotates trunk
NERVE
Anterior primary rami (T7-12)
SERRATUS ANTERIOR
ORIGIN
Upper eight ribs
INSERTION
Inner medial border scapula. 1 and 2: upper angle; 3 and 4: length of costal surface ; 5-8: inferior angle
ACTION
Laterally rotates and protracts scapula
NERVE
Long thoracic nerve (C5, 6, 7) (from roots) slips from ribs 1 and 2: C5; 3 and 4: C6; 5-8: C7)
PECTORALIS MINOR
ORIGIN
3, 4, 5 ribs
INSERTION
coracoid process of scapula
ACTION
Elevates ribs if scapula fixed, protracts scapula (assists serratus anterior)
NERVE
Medial pectoral nerve (C8, T1) (from medial cord)
EXTERNAL INTERCOSTALS
ORIGIN
Inferior border of ribs as far back as posterior angles
INSERTION
Superior border of ribs below, passing obliquely downwards and backwards
ACTION
Fix intercostal spaces during respiration. Aids forced inspiration by elevating ribs
NERVE
Muscular collateral branches of intercostal nerves
INTERNAL ABDOMINAL OBLIQUE
ORIGIN
Lumbodorsal fascia,
INSERTION
aponeurosis of rectus sheath (anterior and posterior )
ACTION
Supports abdominal wall, assists forced respiration, aids raising intra-abdominal pressure and, with muscles of other side , abducts and rotates trunk. Conjoint tendon supports posterior wall of inguinal canal
NERVE
