Latissimus and the earth pair

A read of this page, with the plate.

Picture-lock · 0.9×
Latissimus dorsi from fascia and iliac crest to the intertubercular groove
The wide sheet. Extend, adduct, internally rotate. Earth pair as address.

Widest of the back. Thoracolumbar fascia, lower six thoracic spines, sacrum and iliac crest, lower three or four ribs, inferior angle of the scapula — into the floor of the intertubercular groove of the humerus. Extension, adduction, internal rotation of the arm. Swim, chop, pull the girdle down. If one side is a different length than the other, the trunk can list. That is a mechanical maybe. Nerve: thoracodorsal, C6–C8.

Earth pair as address

Kapel writes pancreas: caring, commitment, protectiveness, loyalty. Chinese medicine does not keep a separate pancreas channel; spleen–stomach is the earth pair, and Course 01 already gave pancreas its own emotional row at the spleen hours. We park latissimus on that earth pair. Feelings have jobs. You name pull-down. You name the door.

Practice

Stand. Draw one elbow toward the back pocket as if closing a coat. Feel the wide sheet. Compare sides. Name insertion on the humerus. Name the earth pair.

Check

Latissimus dorsi inserts on:

  1. The intertubercular groove of the humerus ✓
  2. The lesser trochanter, with iliopsoas
  3. The medial border of the scapula, with the rhomboids

The bicipital groove. That is how a back muscle moves an arm. Lesser trochanter is iliopsoas. The blade is rhomboid.

You use this fiber by:

  1. Naming the earth pair as the address — caring, loyalty — at the spleen hours Course 01 already named ✓
  2. Parking it on bladder with the erectors, because both are wide on the back
  3. Parking it on lung, because it pulls the girdle down like a breath

Earth pair. Bladder is the column. Lung is a serratus fork, and deltoid later.

This hour teaches that:

  1. A board you invent without her permission
  2. Chinese medicine does not keep a separate pancreas channel; spleen–stomach is the earth… ✓
  3. Collapse the map into one medical stamp

Chinese medicine does not keep a separate pancreas channel; spleen–stomach is the earth pair, and Course 01…

Practice on this hour is to:

  1. Treating every hour as interchangeable production
  2. Draw one elbow toward the back pocket as if closing a coat. ✓
  3. A swap of clothes for the organ

Method before bottle. Trace what the lesson names.

The lab on this hour is for:

  1. A graded exam that invents the next curriculum
  2. Feeling and naming what the lesson maps — journal, not a bottle ✓
  3. A prescription pad for the lab name

Lab is literacy. Not a dose from the yield.

"Latissimus and the earth pair" here is best treated as:

  1. A tourist collection of special experiences
  2. Thoracolumbar fascia, lower six thoracic spines, sacrum and iliac crest, lower three or… ✓
  3. A rigid diagnosis tool that replaces sleep

Train with the map. Do not invent a second sky.

Keep this from the body of the hour:

  1. A dose you write from a yield
  2. Extension, adduction, internal rotation of the arm. ✓
  3. A reason to skip permission

Extension, adduction, internal rotation of the arm.

On this hour, choose:

  1. Inventing a colorful story so the session feels complete
  2. Swim, chop, pull the girdle down. ✓
  3. Proof of supernatural status

Swim, chop, pull the girdle down.

You use this lesson by:

  1. A name that captures the whole sky
  2. If one side is a different length than the other, the trunk can list. ✓
  3. A fixed rainbow outline you must see to be gifted

If one side is a different length than the other, the trunk can list.

The skilled response here is:

  1. Living against the tide on purpose
  2. Kapel writes pancreas: caring, commitment, protectiveness, loyalty. ✓
  3. A replacement for the physician

Kapel writes pancreas: caring, commitment, protectiveness, loyalty.
