tensor faciae latae: flexes/abducts thigh

   muscles of anterior torso

 trapezius: elevates/rotates scapula

 pectoralis minor: elevates rib cage

 soleus: plantar flexion of foot
​               

Muscles on the anterior surface of the body are usually involved in FLEXION

Muscles on the posterior surface of the body are usually involved in EXTENSION

Muscles on the medial surface of the body are usually involved in ADDUCTION
​
Muscles on the lateral surface of the body are usually involved in ABDUCTION

 gluteus maximus: thigh extension

 deltoid: shoulder abdunction

 levetor scapulae: elevates scapula

 tibialis anterior: dorsiflexion                                  of foot

 intercostals: elevate/depress                      ribs during breathing

 palmaris longus: flexion of wrist

 obliques: rotation of trunk

   biceps femoris
   semitendinosus
   ​semimembranosus

   muscles of posterior torso

                               muscle to bone...
 origin:
 the origin of a muscle is the point where it attaches to a bone that remains   stable/immobile during the muscle's action. usually a proximal attachment. 

 insertion:
 the insertion is the point where the muscle attaches to a bone that moves  during the muscle's action. usually the distal attachment.  

 movement:
 when a muscle contracts, the insertion pulls the bone it's attached to,   bringing it closer to the origin. 

 pectoralis major: adduction of arm

  example:
 biceps brachii: the origin is on the scapula
                             the insertion is on the radius
                             when the biceps contracts, it pulls the radius closer to the                                                                              scapula, causing flexion of the elbow

   muscles of the arm

   agonist muscles

 fibularis longus: plantar flexion of                                    foot

   muscles of the hip and posterior thigh

 fyi: rotator cuff muscles

 extensor digitorum: finger extension

 frontalis: raises eyebrow                            wrinkles forehead

  tendon
  tough, fibrous connective             tissue that connects muscle to     bone.

   antagonist muscles
