From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The muscle I have chosen for my wiki page is the deltoid which is located near the shoulder and upper arm. The deltoid muscle is made up of three parts: acromial, spinal, and clavicular. The deltoid is a thick muscle that gives off the rounded lines a shoulder has and is known to be the major abductor of the arm.


Here is the deltoid muscle in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSSGkYrYwqM


In this video you can see that the deltoid muscle is responsible for flexion, internal rotation, abduction, extension, and external rotation of the arm and shoulder.
