Most latissimus dorsi exercises concurrently recruit the teres major, posterior fibres of the deltoid, long head of the triceps brachii, among numerous other stabilizing muscles.
If the elbow is flexed to a right angle, then pronator teres will turn the hand so that the palm faces inferiorly.
Its origin is at the lower margin of the teres major muscle and a continuation of the brachial vein.
The pectoralis major, teres major, and latissimus dorsi insert at the "intertubercular groove" of the humerus.
The pronator quadratus and the pronator teres are either reduced or absent.
In pronator teres syndrome, specifically, immobilization of the elbow and mobility exercise within a pain-free range are initially prescribed.
Pronator teres syndrome (also known as pronator syndrome) is compression of the median nerve between the two heads of the pronator teres muscle.
The physician may notice an enlarged pronator teres muscle.
