Q

Pectoralis Minor

A

Origin: Coracoid process

Insertion: Anterior ribs 3-5

Action: Anterior tilt, scapular protraction (- pulls coracoid process down anteriorly; secures/anchors coracoid process so muscles of the back can downwardly protract scapula)

Q

Subclavius

A

Origin: Medial 1st rib

Insertion: Subclavian groove of clavicle

Action:
Contraction could provide stability of clavicle and SCJ (accessory muscle for stability) & Resist excessive elevation and lateral translation of clavicle (contraction provides an inferomedial pull and compression to the joint)

Innervation: Subclavian Nerve
