2. extensor digitorum
3. extensor digiti minimi
4. extensor carpi ulnaris
5. brachioradialis
6. extensor carpi radialis
What are the 5 musclest belong to the deep group and all arise from the radius and ulna?
1. abductor pollicis longus
2. extensor pollicis brevis

4. extensor indicisWha
What is the extensor expansion?
Holds the muscles in place. Covers the distal tendon of the extensor digitorum.
Lumbrical muscles
Four small muscles associated with the tendons on flexor digitorum profundus.
Interosseus muscles
8 muscles (3 palmar and 4 dorsal)
What is the function of the intrinsic hand muscles?
Enter into activity during MCP and IP flexion and extension.
Quadratus lumborum
4 sided muscle that attaches to iliac crest, 12th rib, and lumbar vertebrae.

Action: pulls ribs down and add to force of expiration.
Psoas major
Lie on the bodies of the lumbar vertebrae.
Piriformis
Attaches to sacrum and femur and laterally rotates femur.
Gluteus maximus

1. adductor longus
2. adductor brevis
3. gracilis
4. adductor magnus

1-3: arise from pubis
Adductor magnus arise from ischium.

All four insert at shaft of femur.
Sartorius
From Anterior superior iliac spine and to medial surface of tibia.
