Occipitalis (back of head) - Location is the same as the occiptal bone

Frontalis (front of head) - Location is the same as the frontal bone

Masseter (cheek) - I picture a hamster with their cheeks puffed out after eating MASSive amounts of food

Orbicularis oculi (eyes) - Orbicularis reminds me of "orbit" and oculi minds me of "eyes" because of the word ocular.  So this is a ring of muscle around the eyes!

Orbicularis oris (eyes) - Like above, orbicularis reminds me of "orbit" and oris minds me of "mouth" because of the word oral.  So this is a ring of muscle around the mouth!

For supraspinatus and infraspinatus, I like to think back to spider-man and his spidey senses. 

Spinatus comes from the word spine, also spi -spider
Supra is above
Infra is below

I like to think these muscles give spider-man his tingle, one detects attacks from above and the other below. Sends it to his spine so he can react quickly.]]> 2022-02-19 23:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2056877353 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2056883802 Rectus femoris - rectus is also in 'rectus abdominus' its closer to the abdomen so its above the others
vastus lateralis - lateral (from the side)
vastus intermedius - medius reminds me of middle, and inter 'in between'
vastus medialis - its in the 'middle' of your body ]]> 2022-02-19 23:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2056883802 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123137 Picture "little miss dorsi" hurting her back]]> 2022-06-23 19:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123137 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123565 It's a muscle that connects 3 parts: - the sternum, clavicle, and mastoid process of temporal bone]]> 2022-06-23 19:04:07 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123565 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123860 Picture getting punched in the shoulder - you just got "dealt" a punch]]> 2022-06-23 19:04:51 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2229123860 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2628268218 Massive eater]]> 2023-06-20 15:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2628268218 https://padlet.com/karen_founk/ouvgc7kqje5qe9yp/wish/2628269408 Your GAStrocnemius flexes when you step on the GAS pedal.
