Crappy Party at Pennsic

It is the first week of war(The Light week). There is nothing to do. So you go out and help someone set up a tent or two. After that it is late afternoon. You figure $%^& it. I am on vacation so you fall asleep in your tent. You wake up (it is night!) to the sound of African drums pounding off in the distance. You grab your trusty mug and these days your ID (It didn’t use to be that way. But that is a story for another time.)

 

You head out into the forest. There you see a camp with two long lines checking for IDs. You get past that noise.

 

Over to your right you see two more long lines. The first one for some tasty liquor concoction that they made up for the night. It is just as smooth as Kool-Aid. Becareful it will sneak up on you.

 

The second one is some imported ale. And do you know what you pay for them to fill your mug? Nothing!  You just hand them your empty mug. Is there a limit? If you have a staff you can stand longer. If you fall down, no more. You get water. So, bring a staff.

 

Over to your left you notice a bright blazing light. You look over and it is a massive roaring campfire that rises a full story in to the sky. You defocus off the blaze at the sound of giggles and flashes of metal. Low and behold there are Belly Dancers dancing around the campfire. And they are all dancing for your enjoyment. You defocus off of their amazing movements and realize where the sound of the African drums are coming from - farther around the campfire are huge men pounding huge African drums.

 

And that is a crappy party at Pennsic and you can go to 3 of those parties every night on the first week of War. On the second week of war there are 8 themed parties every night.

Brachioradialis

 

Origin: Lateral supracondylar ridge of humerus

 

Insertion: Styloid process of radius

 

Action: Flexion of elbow in neutral position

 

Nerve: Radial Nerve (Cervical 5, 6)

 

Palpate: With forearm in neutral position, palpate muscle belly medial on upper forearm during resisted elbow flexion.

 

This muscle deserve its name from its origin and insertion. It flexes the elbow with the forearm in mid-position, whereas the biceps flexes the elbow in Supination and the Brachialis flexes the elbow in all positions. Brachioradialis functions when the elbow flexes against resistance or rapidly. Acting alone, this muscle would tend to bring the forearm to mid-position from either a supinated or pronated positions it flexes the elbow.

Anconeus

 

Origin: Lateral epicondyle of humerus

 

Insertion: Olecranon process and upper posterior

 

Action: Extension of elbow

 

Nerve: Radial Nerve (Cervical 7, 8)

 

Palpate: Between Olecranon process of ulna and lateral epicondyle of humerus during active elbow extension.

Triceps Brachii

 

Origin: 1. Long head: infraglenoid tubercle of scapula

2. Lateral head: posterior humerus above spiral groove

3. Medial head: posterior humerus below spiral groove

 

Insertion: Olecranon process of ulna

 

Action: Extension of elbow

Long head: extension of humerus

 

Nerve: Radial Nerve (Cervical 7, 8)

 

Palpate: Posterior and lateral surface of humerus during active elbow extension.

 

Triceps means three heads (Latin). It is the only muscle on the posterior arm. The long head of the triceps originates from the infraglenoid tubercle, whereas the long head of the biceps originates from the supraglenoid tubercle.

Action: Flexion of elbow

 

Nerve: Musculocutaneous Nerve (Cervical 5, 6, 7) (sometimes branches from radial and median nerves)

Biceps Brachii

 

Origin: A. Short head: coracoid process of scapula

B. Long head: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula

 

Insertion: Tuberosity of radius

 

Action: Flexion of elbow

Supination of forearm

 

Short head – flexion of humerus

Nerve: Long thoracic Nerve (Cervical 5, 6)

 

Palpate: Palpate belly on anterior surface of humerus and tendon in antecubital fossa during active elbow flexion

 

Biceps means two heads and brachium means arm (Latin). The long head travels through the capsule of the shoulder joint and the bicipital groove. The short head originates on the coracoid process along with the origin of the Coracobrachialis and the insertion of the pectoralis minor.

Serratus Anterior

 

Origin: Outer surface of upper 8 ribs (by finger-like slips)

 

Insertion: Vertebral border of scapula- anterior surface

 

Action: Protraction, upward rotation of scapula, stabilizes scapula against chest wall

 

Nerve: Long thoracic Nerve (Cervical 5, 6, 7)

 

Palpate: Lateral-anterior surface of ribs, below axilla during active scapular protraction

 

This muscle derives its name from the serrated origin. The lower fibers of the origin interdigitate with the external oblique. It is the strongest protractor of the scapula and holds the scapula against the chest wall to provide a fixed origin for muscles acting on the humerus. Weakness cause “winged scapula”.

Subclavius

 

Origin: 1st rib near costocartilage junction

 

Insertion: Inferior shaft of clavicle- medial 1/3

 

Action: Stabilizes clavicle by moving it medially

Pectoralis Minor

 

Origin: Anterior 3, 4, 5 ribs near costal cartilages

 

Insertion: Coracoid process of scapula- medial border of superior surface

 

Action: Protection, depression, downward rotation of scapula

 

Nerve: Medial pectoral nerve (Cervical 8, Thoracic 1)

 

Palpate: Difficult to palpate. Position arm with the hand behind the back to relax pectoralis major. Place palpating fingertip on coracoid process and lay finger just in front of anterior border of deltoid. Palpate pectoralis minor as the hand is actively lifted away from the back during scapular protraction.

 

This muscle forms the anterior wall of the axilla.
