---|---|---|---|---|---|
Fiber arrangement affects | 1. Muscle's ability to exert F
2. ROM
🗑
|
||||
Greater cross section diameter= | Greater F exertion
🗑
|
||||
Longer muscle= | Greater ROM
🗑
|
||||
2 major types of fiber arrangements | 1. Parallel
2. Pennate
🗑
|
||||
Parallel Muscles | Fibers arranged parallel to length of the muscle
Produce >ROM
🗑
|
||||
Types of Parallel Muscles | Flat
Fusiform
Strap
Radiate
Sphincter (Circular)
🗑
|
||||
Flat | Ex- Rectus Abdominus, External Oblique
Thin and broad, originating from sheet like aponeuroses
Forces are spread over a broad muscle
🗑
|
||||
Fusiform | Ex- Brachialis, Biceps Brachii
Spindle-shaped w/ central belly that taper into tendons on each end
F is focused onto small, bony targets
🗑
|
||||
Strap | Ex-Sartorius
Uniform in diameter
F is focused onto small bony targets
🗑
|
||||
Radiate | Ex-Pectoralis Major, Trapezius
Triangular or Fan-Shaped or Convergent
Flat+Fusiform
🗑
|
||||
Sphincter (Circular) | Ex- Orbicularis Oris
Endless Strap Muscles
Surrounds openings and functions to close them upon contraction
🗑
|
||||
Pennate Muscles | shorter fibers
arranged obliquely to their tendons
> Cross sectional diameter...> Power
🗑
|
||||
Types of Pennate Muscles | Unipennate
Bipennate
Multipennate
🗑
|
||||
Unipennate | Ex- Biceps Femoris, Extensor Digitorum Longus, Tibialis Posterior
Fibers run obliquely from tendon on one side ONLY
🗑
|
||||
Bipennate | Ex- rectus femoris, flexor hallicus longus
Fibers run obliquely on both sides of a central tendon
🗑
|
||||
Multipennate | Ex-Deltoid
Several tendons with fibers running diagonally btwn them
🗑
|
||||
Strongest Contraction produced by | Bipennate and Multipennate
🗑
