Seen any great anatomy vids ? let me know so I can put them here.......Thanks for joining

If you have only just completed your anatomy and physiology training then learning all the muscle origins and insertions will no doubt have been a challenge. The next challenge is to combine this knowledge with learning about the nervous system. 

Jean Claude Guimberteau at  http://www.endovivo.com/en/dvds.php   is creator of some of the most mind blowing invivo video's you will ever see.He has condensed his life work into a book with accompanying DVD. It promotes as many questions as it answere's because it challanges the world of microbiology as never seen before https://www.amazon.de/Architecture-Living-Fascia-Extracellular-Endoscopy/dp/1909141119/ref=pd_sim_14_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=51fuwtGFVhL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR126%2C160_&refRID=PC3G2KA42J1733EGGDYT http://www.endovivo.com/alf/WOW Gil Hedley has released his 4 dvd anatomy disection set to be veiwed on you tube. 

See below, thanks Gil :) 

In addition you may want to look at what is happening at the cellular level?. Here is the work of professor Bente Klarlund Pedersen, She has been studying hormone secretion from muscles  for over 10 yrs!. http://inflammation-metabolism.dk/index.php?pageid=111&username=bente

How did you learn your muscles ? was it fun or a real hard slog..(all those actions, origins and insertions.) 9 Replies

I found it a hard slog I spent 2 hours every day of the week trying to get this knowledge to stick. I was an athelete at the time and came to realize I knew didley squat about the muscles.

Just so you know, Java script (animation) is not supported on Apple iPad. Otherwise, I think the web-based content is helpful. I looked at the pathology course and will check out the yours soon Sandy.
Comment by Sandy Fritz on June 11, 2010 at 12:34pm
. I thought you all might like to view a portion of our two online courses. You can find a module of Susan Salvo's Pathology course at:

https://evolve.elsevier.com/productPages/i_1809_5490.html

and you can view a module from Sandy Fritz's Essential Sciences course at:

https://evolve.elsevier.com/productPages/i_1529_5271.html

When the page pulls up, just click on "Preview sample content" and you'll be given access to a complete module. If anyone has questions, just ask Sandy, Susan,

These previews are complete modules and are provided by Elsivier (Mosby and Saunders) publishing . They run on the web site provided with each book. If you are interested in implementing online education take a look. They are inexpensive when purchased with the textbooks.

We just watched Gil Hedley's videos on superficial fascia, deep fascia and muscles in Swedish 2 class. We all got a kick out of the "fuzz speech".

Thank you Jaya, thank you Ashley. Yes, the thickness of the ITB was pretty amazing to me too. Totally reinforced the notion of fascial connectins which we are only just 'getting' here in the UK. Yes, QL really deep. I have to request special cadaveric specimens, dissected from the posterior rather than anterior, when i chat about that muscle because you just can't get to it so well. I picked up a really good tip re QL - on several occassions therapists have told me that got good results using acupuincture for chronic low back pain so I have since referred a couple of clients.
Comment by ashley fleetwood on February 4, 2010 at 3:14pm
hi jane! things I found super helpful to see- where QL actually is.. How much thicker (and wider) IT band is than I thought! how deep/ thick the erector spinae are. Fascia.(everything! It was priceless. ) I feel like I could take it several more times and I would keep being surprised and learning.
Comment by Jeff Sims on February 4, 2010 at 1:19pm
OM Jane ~ a quick comment... size-wise i noticed iliocostalis has seemed bigger than typically depicted and the IT band is often incredibly thick. a couple of other items of note: seeing the adipose tissue cramping the internal organs on over-weight bodies, and a metal prosthetic.

Hi, I am keen to discover what therapists liked best about attending a day in a dissection lab. Were you suprized by anything? I was amazed to discover how large teres major and teres minor are. The textbooks show these as rather small muscles and even on the specimens (of older adults) they were much larger than I expected. I teach a a workshop in a dissection lab, designed for massage therapists, and try to tailor it to what I think they will find most interesting in their work. If you have attending a workshop in a lab your comments are most welcome. Jane

When I went through massage school then later when I taught a few classes we were able to go to the cadaver lab at Wichita State University. Not only did I get to hold a heart in my hands but lungs and liver as well. very interesting. From a muscle manipulation stand point very humbling how thin muscles could be.
