Mechanical methods are among the oldest and most important approaches used for induction of labour (4, 5). They are indicated for labour induction in prolonged pregnancies, diabetic and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and premature rupture of membranes.
Shoulder Adductor Muscles? What are the muscles involved in shoulder elevation? The muscles involved in elevating the shoulder girdle (e.g. shrugging your shoulders) are the upper fibers of trapezius, levator scapulae, rhomboid major and rhomboid minor.
The pushup chiefly targets the chest, shoulders and triceps, the muscles on the back of the upper arm. In the chest area, pushups work the pectoralis major, the thick, slab-like muscles that span from the collarbone to the upper ribcage. As the shoulders drive the motion of raising and lowering your body, the pushup focuses on the main muscle of this body part, the deltoids.
