Lyrics:

I am a Myocyte
Your muscles are made up of me
Here are some of the 650 muscles
in the human body

We’ll start with your Deltoids
That sit on the shoulders of your arms
There are three parts of your deltoid
that I’ll teach you with some charm
The Anterior fibers
are on the front side of you
While the Lateral fibers
sit on the top of the shoulders that’s two
The 3rd part’s called
That sits on your back
All three make up your Deltoid muscle
Now how about that
The next Muscle we’ll look at
Are the Pectorals on your chest
There are two parts to this muscle
That I hope you never rest
There’s the Pectoral Minor
Which is connected to your ribs
Then the Pectoral Major
It makes your chest look really big
On the upper arm is your Bicep
They help you lift heavy things
The Biceps Brachii (Long Head)
Sits on the outside while I sing
While the Bicep Brachii (Short Head)
Lets you lift things with no harm
We’ll take a look at the Triceps
On the back side of your arm
There’s the Lateral, Long and Medial Head
Which make up the three
parts that conclude the Triceps
very complex anatomy

I am a Myocyte
Your muscles are made up of me
Here are some of the 650 muscles
in the human body

Let’s look at the Abdominals
That sit on your tummy
This is a pair of 4 muscles
When flexed are very bumpy
Hey, there’s the Obliques
They keep your sides really strong
There is the Internal Oblique Muscle
That supports your abdomen
The External Oblique Muscle
Helps with your side bend
Let’s look at your Gluteus Maximus
on your rear end
It’s the largest muscle in your body
This is true my friend
It keeps you standing upright
And it helps you to ascend
The Quadriceps are located
on the front side of your thigh
There are four muscles
that make up the quads that you do rely on
The Rectus Femoris
is the first muscle in line
While the Vastus Lateralis
Sits to the far outside
Vastus Intermedius
Sits under the Rectus
And Vastus Medialis
makes the fourth in your Quadriceps

I am a Myocyte
Your muscles are made up of me
Here are some of the 650 muscles
in the human body

Now let’s focus on the Hamstrings
There are three muscles we’ll see
Biceps Femoris muscle
Is on the outside of the three
The Semitendinosus
Makes up the middle part
While the Semimembranosus
is the inner on the chart
The Gastrocnemius
It’s also known as the calf
Is made of the
Lateral and Medial heads
two half’s
So Take care of your muscles
because they’re all made up of me
I am microscopic but when grouped
I am really strong you see

I am a Myocyte
Your muscles are made up of me
Here are some of the 650 muscles
in the human body

Paul Andersen explains the three types of muscle found in humans; striated, smooth and cardiac muscle. He explains how actin and myosin interact to contract the sarcomere in a muscle. The sliding filament theory explains how ATP and calcium are used to contract the z disks.
