Origin of brachialis
distal half of anterior surface of humerus
Insertion of brachialis
tuberosity and coronoid process of ulna
Action of brachialis
flex the elbow (humeroulnar joint)
Origin of brachioradialis
lateral supracondylar ridge of humerus
Insertion of brachioradialis
styloid process of radius
Action of brachioradialis
flex the elbow(humeroulnar joint); assist to pronate and supinate the forearm when these movements are resisted
Origin of pronator teres
medial epicondyle of the humerus, common flexor tendon and coronoid process of the ulna
Insertion of pronator teres
middle of lateral surface of the radius
Action of pronator teres
pronate the forearm (radioulnar joints); assist to flex the elbow (humeroulnar joint)
Origin of pronator quadratus
medial , anterior surface of distal ulna
Insertion of pronator quadratus
lateral, anterior surface of distal radius
Action of pronator quadratus
pronate the forearm (radioulnar joint)
Origin of supinator
radial collateral ligament, annular ligament and the supinator crest of the ulna
Insertion of supinator
lateral surface of proximal shaft of the radius
Action of supinator
supinate the forearm (radioulnar joints)
