I really wish I would have known about your videos when I was taking anatomy. You are a wonderful teacher, and I can tell this just from a couple of your videos. You are making a difference to students who have a harder time grasping concepts of anatomy on their own. I am studying for the boards exam for occupational therapy and your videos are great resources. Thank YOU, Paula!

i am a PE teacher, Point of origin means where the muscle starts. Biceps originates from : www.getbodysmart.com/ap/muscularsystem/armmuscles/anteriormuscles/bicepsbrachii/tutorial.html
Sebkarp0 You could use that as a rule of thumb, yet there are many muscles that don't follow the rule, ex erector spinae, abdominals, intrinsic muscles of hands/feet. I'd encourage to know each muscle to the best detail that you can!
Paula Humanatomy Yea, that's what I thought too. But I guess there's some discrepancies that always come along (e.g., pectoralis minor inserts onto the coracoid process and abducts/depresses scapula, but it also elevates the ribs it is attached to so it sort of works both ways).
Hello, I am sorry to have missed your comment. My plan with the videos was to give a quick foundational tutorial. I am curious to your question. Standing straight? From a flexed vertebral column? Flexed acetabulofemoral joint? The muscle does not 'pull' it contracts. Generally, origins and insertions are learned from anatomical position for functional movement. The reality is that the could reverse depending on which bone is stabilizing. For example, psoas major is taught with the origins on the vertebral column and the insertion on the lesser trochanter for hip flexion, from anatomical position. If we look at supine and the femur stable, and concentrically contract the psoas major it could flex the lumbar spine. I know that's not the straight forward answer. Truly, learning musculoskeletal anatomy starts from the basics. Also understanding the design of the muscle organ for each specific muscle can help explain the function. You must consider the structure, fiber alignment, concentric vs eccentric contraction and ultimately, the functional movement to be achieved. The know, the body is amazing and will create alternate movement patterns if there is any derangement. WLK F. I hope that clarifies the inherent chaos that makes up the human body!
great channel, very helpful.. I'm in first year nursing, so finding explanations that are short and sweet and accurate are hard to find!
i wish my kin anatomy class back in undergrad explained it like this. They just gave us a book and went into lab every week.
It is as simple as that!?!?! hahaha I wish I saw this video months ago!
+Andrew Buchan It is that simple! :)
Currently working on my Masters in Performance Enhancement and Injury Prevention. Thank you for this channel!!!

Alyssa Wen You are very welcome! Thank-you for your kind words.
Alyssa Zen colour you know
Thank you for a fast and simplistic lesson.
make some more anatomy videos, every word you say is so learnable and easy. I would love to study anatomy from you once again
Super helpful! Thanks for keeping it brief!
Super helpful! Thanks for the concise answer. Now to learn all my shoulder and knee muscles...
thank you. Insertion and origin explained in a simple way!
Thanks. Simple. Quick. Great.
great, clear, and simple explanation! thank you very much.
Great explanation...well articulated. Thanks!
Perfect explanation, thank you so much!
Thank you Paula for getting me through my Biomechanics and Physics exams🙏❤
this definitely explained alot for me. Is there anyway you could make a video of all the main muscles, their origin and insertions?
Seriously so simple and helpful!!!
Great vid!! really helpful
Bless you! I figured as much, but I wanted confirmation and you put it nicely!
THIS IS THE BEST CHANNEL EVER
Oh my god u cleared my doubt in a simple manner .... Im glad to see this...
Awesome.video. Straightforward and to the point. Thank you!
Eddie Thank-you for your kind words!
I really like your video, it is easy to understand.
This is a great video well explained in such short time
thank you so much for this haha, I was so confused but this cleared it all up
Put together so simple and well. Thank you soooooo much! :)
Ciara C Thank-you for your kind feedback, Ciara.
I understand it now! Thank you very much :)
Thank you very much!, very clear. Any bibliographical reference? or any book that details on this specific topic?
thank you for this information!
Thanks origin and insertion figured. now time for antagonist and other stuff
+evilbadguystrikes Glad that it helped!
Very clear thank you
does it mean that the origin will always be at the proximal part of the muscle and the insertion at the distal?
VERY NICE EXPLANATION
Thanks very helpful
Great mam,🇮🇳
Thanks!
wow! great explanation!
Dear Katie, Thank-you for your feedback!
thank you!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO CLEAR!!!!!!!
You are welcome, Angele!
👏🏼🙌👏🏼🙌🙏🏻thank you!
Priceless❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
OMG OMG OMG THANK YOU!! 😭
thank you 😘

thank you for this
+Mazen Omer You are very welcome!
Do you hace books from you?
thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanku
verrrrrrrRrrrrrrrry
niceeeeeeee
very straightforward. can u be my professor? my professor is fucking reading textbook during pandemic online lectures!!
I always looked at it as origin = proximal attachment; insertion = distal attachment

When they refer to attachment, do they mean insertion or origin?!!!
Excellent ...
Thank-you for your support!
Im telling my classmates about these videos.
Thank-you for sharing!
I've been making F's on my tests but today I took my test n only missed two. I got all of the bonus questions too.
I am glad that my videos have helped you! That is why I am doing this!
Good video but the music is distracting
ciear concept
Textbook explanation without enough examples. Not good enough.How about when you stand straight? Which muscle is being "pulled" to where?
