Muscle Anatomy

Here is a muscle anatomy chart that you can take a look at too see the different muscle groups on a human body. This chart shows you both front and back views of muscular anatomy and gives you a good idea of the terminology used in exercise routines to refer to different muscle groups.

One thing we want to point out is to focus on remembering the names of the muscles in bold letters becasue these are the names that are most commonly used in fitness and bodubuilding. The small-typed names are more technical and are used in medical circles. If you know the latin names that is great, but remember not to use them when talking to someone at the gym because you will come across as trying to show off your knowlegde of anatomy. It's just not standard "gym talk".
