Muscle Sites

[WannaBeMaleRN]

Ok, I am looking for the BEST site to learn the muscles, not a quiz type site but perhaps one that will show you how to maybe remember them a little easier or one that will be able to associate them with something and relate when I see them on a practical. I appreciate any help.

Maybe this will help:http://www.nursingjourney.com/muscle_locations_help.htm It is a list of muscle locations I wrote when trying to learn the muscles.

If not, I do have the powerpoint quizzes.

Good luck!

A guy who used to work for me (back in the day) was helping his wife get through the muscle chapter when she was taking A&P. She was really impressed with how much he knew about muscles and how well he was able to apply the knowledge to how the body works.

When she asked him how he learned so much about muscles, he honestly answered: from Arnold Schwarzenneger's books on body building.

If you're athletic and into stuff like weight lifting and working out, bodybuilding and athletic/sports-training resources might be the best way for you to learn about many of the different muscles of the human body from a perspective that's very practical and down-to-earth. =)
