Muscles being discussed: Triceps Location: The Triceps are located in the horses shoulder. These muscles originate and insert at different places along the scapula, humerous, and olecranon (elbow). Function: Extends elbow, flexes shoulder. Symptoms of tension/Injury: 路 Lameness 路 Toe dragging 路 Reluctance to extend foreleg 路 Soreness in muscle 路 Shortened stride 路 Reluctance goingFlexor carpi radialis is a fusiform muscle located in the anterior forearm. It belongs to the superficial layer of the anterior forearm compartment, along with the pronator teres, flexor carpi ulnaris, palmaris longus and flexor digitorum superficialis muscles. All these muscles share the function of flexing the hand on the wrist, which is why This probably alters triceps surae function more into propulsion. Furthermore, McGowan et al. argued that a horizontal pulling apparatus would disturb the ankle torque and adopted a protocol similar to that of Stephen and Yang , but allowed the vertical apparatus to slide over the subjects' head. They also tested the effect of body mass to
This function is important as along with gluteus maximus, part of gluteus medius, piriformis, obturator externus and quadratus femoris, the triceps coxae muscles externally rotate the lower extremity in the carry-through phase of the gait cycle. Abduction - when the hip is flexed at 90 degrees, triceps coxae action pulls the proximal femur
