    The document discusses muscle anatomy and naming conventions. It defines accessory muscles as stabilizers of joints that assist rather than move the joint. For example, the long head of the biceps brachii and pectoralis major are accessory muscles in shoulder flexion. It describes the supinator muscle as primarily responsible for forearm supination and names muscles based on their primary actions. Pronation is defined as the rotation of the radius across the ulna so the palm faces backwards. Criteria for naming muscles include fiber direction, size, location, number of insertions, origin/insertion points, primary movement, and shape.

    MUSCLES ANATOMY

    HOW IS CALLED THE MUSCLE THAT DOES NOT MOVE?

    The accesory muscle, this type of muscle is stabilizer of the joint


    and does a support or assitance work to the main muscles ( the
    main muscles are the more important for the movement) .
    Example : the long head of the biceps brachial and the pectoralis
    major are the acessory muscle in the flex move of the shoulder
    joint because makes strenght the joint capsule and keeps it stand
    during flex ,the mains muscles are the deltoids previous fibers
    and the coracobrachial muscle that does the movement

    ARE SOME MUSCLES NAMED BY SUPINATION?

    First of all , in the body are muscles named for their firts o
    prymary action example of that is the supinator muscle. A wide
    muscle , named like that because does a external rotation move of
    the forearm bring back the radius to the anatomy position of the
    bone with the palm of the hand facing fowards , a uncross
    movement , located between the two forearm bones in their upper
    side in the previous face of both with some fascicles originated in
    the side epicondyl of the humerus and inserted in the upper side
    part of the ulna
    The curiosity thing is back in the time the brachorradiali muscle
    was named long supinator because it was thought that this muscle
    had influence in the supination , actually doesn’t , the prymary
    supination of the forearm is the supinator muscle and a acessory
    muscle of it in a minor way is the tendon of the biceps brachial
    inserted in the radius. The brachiorradiali muscle does a important
    work in the flex move of the forearm over the arm as the biceps
    brachial and the brachial muscles three main muscles of the
    forearm flex action
    WHAT IS THE HYPEREXTENSION?

    Excessive and dangerous extension move , out of the common


    joint limit or range of motion.

    WHAT IS A PRONATION?

    Is the rotation of the radius across the ulna doing that the named
    bone stay over up of the ulna with the palm of the hand facing
    backwards , as the supinator muscle , this action is done due two
    pronators muscles located in the upper an the down side of the
    forearm , the round pronator and the square pronator.

    IS THIS ANY CRITERIA TO NAME THE MUSCLES? NAME

    Yes , here are some of the them :


     Direction of muscles fibers
     Size: example the longus head of the brachial triceps, the
    round minor and major of the scapular waist
     Location: example rectus femoris
     Numbers of head insertions: triceps, biceps, cuadriceps
     Origin and insertion: brachiorradiali named like that because
    both localization of the muscle insertion and origin depends
    the bone and the zone of the bone
     Primary move that does: flexor,extensor,supinator and more
    depends of the action of the muscle
     Shape: for the muscle’s shape for example , the pyramidal
    muscle
