Origins and Insertions
Muscles produce movement by exerting force on
tendons which in turn pull on bones and other
supporting structures like the skin.
In order to produce movement around a joint, one bone
must be stationary while another bone moves.
The attachment of a muscle's tendon to the stationary,
usually proximal bone, is called the origin.

Musculoskeletal Levers
Muscles, tendons, bones, and joints can form three
different types of levers in the body.
When producing movement, bones act as levers, and
joints function as the fixed point
of movement called the fulcrum.
In a lever, the point of movement
(fulcrum) is acted on by two
different forces: Effort and load.

Musculoskeletal Levers
There are few first-class levers
in the body

Musculoskeletal Levers
Second class levers always provide a distinct mechanical
advantage in producing force.

Musculoskeletal Levers
Third-class levers are the most common and favor
speed and range of motion over maximum force.

Coordination Among Muscles
Movements are often the result of several skeletal muscles
acting as a group.
Most skeletal muscles are arranged in opposing
(antagonistic) pairs at joints.
Within opposing pairs, the prime mover or agonist (“the
leader”) is the muscle primarily responsible for causing
the desired movement.
Copyright © John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Coordination Among Muscles
The antagonist stretches and yields to the effects of the
prime mover.
In flexing the forearm at
the elbow, the brachialis
is the prime mover or
agonists, and the triceps
brachii is the antagonist.

Coordination Among Muscles
Synergists are muscles used to prevent unwanted
movements at intermediate joints, or otherwise aid the
movement of the prime mover.
The biceps acts synergistically with the brachialis.
Fixator muscles are a type of synergist muscle that are
used to steady the proximal joints of a prime mover.

Imbalances of Homeostasis
Exercise-induced muscle damage
After intense exercise, electron micrographs reveal
considerable muscle damage including torn
sarcolemmas and disrupted Z-discs.
Blood levels of proteins normally confined only to
muscle (including myoglobin and the enzyme, creatine
kinase) increase as they are released from damaged
muscle.

Imbalances of Homeostasis
Spasm
A sudden involuntary contraction of a single muscle
within a large group of muscles – usually painless
Cramp
Involuntary and often painful muscle contractions
Caused by inadequate blood flow to muscles (such as in
dehydration), overuse and injury, and abnormal blood
electrolyte levels

Imbalances of Homeostasis
Disease States and Disorders
Fibrosis (myofibrosis)
 Replacement of
muscle fibers by excessive amounts
of connective tissues (fibrous scar tissue)
Myosclerosis
 Hardening
of the muscle caused by calcification
Both myosclerosis and muscle fibrosis occur as a result
of trauma and various metabolic disorders.

Imbalances of Homeostasis
Aging
In part due to decreased levels of physical activity,
with aging, humans undergo a slow, progressive loss of
skeletal muscle mass that is replaced largely by fibrous
connective tissue and adipose tissue.
Muscle strength at 85 is about half that at age 25.
Compared to the other two fiber types, the relative
number of slow oxidative fibers appears to increase.
