Introduction Appendicular musculature:


Muscles responsible for stabilizing the pectoral and pelvic girdles and for moving the upper and lower limbs.

Introduction Appendicular muscles account for roughly 40% of the skeletal muscles in the body. The two major groups of appendicular muscles are:
The muscles of the pectoral girdle and upper limbs. The muscles of the pelvic girdle and lower limbs.

The functions and required ranges of motion differ greatly between these groups.

Muscles of the Pectoral Girdle and Upper Limbs Muscles associated with the pectoral girdle and upper limbs can be divided into four groups:
Muscles that position the pectoral girdle. Muscles that move the arm. Muscles that move the forearm and hand. Muscles that move the hand and fingers.

Muscles of the Pelvic Girdle and Lower Limbs The muscles of the lower limbs are larger and more powerful than those of the upper limbs. These muscles can be divided into three groups:
Muscles that move the thigh. Muscles that move the leg. Muscles that move the foot and toes.

Fascia, Muscle Layers, and Compartments Dense connective tissue layers provide a structural framework for the soft tissues of the body. The connective tissue fibers of the deep fasciae support and interconnect adjacent skeletal muscles but permit independent movement. The deep fascia extends between the bones and the superficial fascia and separates the soft tissues of the limb into separate compartments.
