Muscular Anatomy

Muscle Organization and Function

Muscle organization affects power, range
and speed of muscle movement

Fascicles
• Muscle cells (fibers) are organized into bundles

Classification of Skeletal Muscles

By the way fascicles are organized

By relationships of fascicles to tendons
Fascicle Arrangement

Organization of Skeletal Muscle Fibers

Four patterns of fascicle organization
• Parallel
• Convergent
• Pennate
• Circular
Levers

Levers

Mechanically, each bone is a lever (a
rigid, moving structure)
• And each joint a fulcrum (a fixed point)

Muscles provide applied force (AF)
• Required to overcome resistance (R)
Levers


Function of a lever is to change

Direction of an AF

Distance and speed of movement produced by an AF

Effective strength of an AF
The Three Classes of Levers

Depend on the relationship between applied force,
fulcrum, and resistance
• First class, second class, and third class
First Class Lever
Second Class Lever
Third Class Lever
Types of Muscle--Actions




Prime mover (Agonist) – muscle with the
major responsibility for a certain movement
Antagonist – muscle that opposes or
reverses a prime mover
Synergist – muscle that aids a prime mover
in a movement and helps prevent rotation
Fixator – stabilizes the origin of a prime
mover
