Show Notes
We have these fascinating nerves called cranial nerves that are absolutely vital...they provide us with the basic senses we use on a daily basis, enable us to maintain our balance, and even make expressions with our face, like that quizzical look you might have on your face when your kid or younger relative tells you a poorly formed joke. Join me in episode #53 learn more.

This is the Last Call — like closing time at a bar, and also literally the last general anatomy episode on this show. Let me explain further. I have taught anatomy and physiology for a good number of years, both in the physical classroom and online. I have interacted with lots of students and know the pitfalls, the strategies that tend to work for students, and what makes sense. I thought about a little scenario in my head which is actually not too far from reality since our daughter is going into healthcare. She has asked me for help with anatomy terms and how to keep them straight, and for advice about muscles and how to understand their actions and attachments. So, like the last call, I’m extending it to how I can help you personally. What if a good friend came to me (and let’s just say you were the friend) and said, "Seth, can we meet at a bar or restaurant, have a drink or some food? And can you share what you know with me? Can you give me some tips and share some shortcuts?" I know that I would love it if someone did this for me with something I’m trying to learn whether it be some sort of home project, video production, martial arts, etc. And I would have especially loved it if someone did this for me when I was learning anatomy. So, that’s what I’m doing in this episode. Care to join me? Let's go!

One strategy you could use to help you remember and understand human anatomy systems is to determine how systems connect with one another. You might find this fascinating and interesting anyway, which makes it doubly effective. It’s good for remembering and understanding and it draws your attention and interest In the second part of the episode, I provide a bit of a framework for how to structure your studies, what elements to include to make anatomy studying effective What systems are we connecting and what are the elements? Listen in to find out!
There are hundreds and hundreds of muscles right? So, since there are hundreds of muscles and each muscle has two attachments, origin and insertion, that’s a lot to keep track of. Let’s break it down just to the attachments for some of the muscles of the upper limb so you can get a win and really nail those down.
In this episode, we will chat about how muscles move and what they attach to, and we’ll take a deeper look into the deltoid muscle. We’ll talk about synergists and antagonists and get started with some terms.
