Listen "How to Remember the Names of the Muscles"
Episode Synopsis
NASM CPT Podcast – Anatomy NAMES
One of the most common questions I get after a workshop is “how do you remember the names of all those muscles?” So, today we discuss anatomical words for muscles and from where they are derived. It’s important to learn the language of your profession and it’s simpler than you think!
Muscles reviewed in this episode include:
Gastrocnemius
Soleus
Hamstrings
Semimembranosus / Semitendionsus
Biceps Femoris
Quadriceps
Rectus Abdominus
Gluteus Maximus
Iliopsoas
Trapezius
Rhomboids
Sternocleidomastoid
