  1. musculus serratus anterior

    The musculus serratus anterior, also known simply as the serratus anterior, is a muscle located on the side of the chest, originating on the surface of the upper ribs and attaching to the front of the shoulder blade. This muscle plays a pivotal role in moving the arm and shoulder, particularly in forward punching or pressing movements. It also helps in the rotation and abduction of the scapula, or shoulder blade. It is often called the "boxer's muscle" due to its importance in the punching motion. Its name “serratus” comes from its saw-like appearance.
