	eMedicine - Deltoid Fibrosis : Article Excerpt by: Mark Brodersen, MD (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Deltoid fibrosis is a muscle disorder marked by intramuscular fibrous bands within the substance of the deltoid muscle.
		Deltoid fibrosis has been associated with fibrous contractures of the gluteal and quadriceps muscles and is likely a similar process.
		Deltoid fibrosis is seen in people of all ages but primarily has been reported in children.

	Exercising the Rotator Cuff - Minus the Deltoid
		The rotator cuff acts in concert with the deltoid to elevate the shoulder.
		He further stated that as a natural part of aging, the deltoid retains its strength longer than the relatively diminutive rotator cuff, resulting in a loss of the depressor effect of the rotator cuff on the humeral head during elevation, leading to subsequent impingement.
		Deltoid activation is decreased significantly, lessening the tendency for superior humeral migration if the rotator cuff is weak.

	Xah: Special Plane Curves: Deltoid
		Deltoid can be defined as the trace of a point on a circle, rolling inside another circle 3 or 3/2 times as large in radius.
		The locus of J (deltoid's orthoptic) is the inscribed circle.
		The pedal of deltoid with respect to a cusp, vertex, or center is a folium with one, two, or three loops respectively.

	Deltoid muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The deltoid muscle is the muscle forming the rounded contour of the human shoulder.
		From this extensive origin the fibers converge toward their insertion, the middle passing vertically, the anterior obliquely backward and lateralward, the posterior obliquely forward and lateralward; they unite in a thick tendon, which is inserted into the V-shaped deltoid tubercle on the middle of the lateral aspect of the shaft of the humerus.
		The middle head of the deltoid is the main abductor at the gleno-humeral joint (shoulder) and is commonly trained using side lateral raises.

	Deltoid (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The deltoid is also related to the Simson Line. If the Simson Line is drawn for all points around the circumcircle of a triangle, the envelope of the lines is a deltoid.
		If a tangent is drawn to the deltoid at some point, P, and the points where the tangent crosses the deltoids other two branches are called points A and B, then the length of AB is equal to 4 times r.
		If you draw the deltoids tangents at points A and B, they will be perpendicular, and they will intersect at a point inside the deltoid that is the 180 degree rotation of point P about the center of the fixed circle.

	Ankle Fracture Stability References (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Internal and external rotation was not affected by fibular osteotomy or by transection of the superficial fibers of the deltoid ligament.
		Transection of the deep fibers of the deltoid ligament caused a significant (p < 0.02) increase in external rotation of the talus at maximum plantar flexion; this was corrected incompletely by insertion of an anatomical fibular plate.
		The three patients in whom the deltoid ligament was repaired did not have as good a result as the twenty-one patients in whom it was not, but this group was too small to permit valid comparisons.

	deltoid
		The deltoid, so-named because it looks like an uppercase Greek delta, is formed by a point on the circumference of a circle rolling inside another circle with a radius three times as large.
		If a tangent is drawn to the deltoid at some point, P, and the points where the tangent crosses the deltoids other two branches are called points A and B, then the length of AB equals 4r.
		If the deltoid's tangents are drawn at points A and B, they will be perpendicular, and they will intersect at a point inside the deltoid that is the 180° rotation of point P about the center of the fixed circle.

	A New Test for a Weak Deltoid
		One of the problems in testing for a weak deltoid is the synergistic effect of the rotator cuff muscles which may mask deltoid insufficiency.
		Anterior deltoid wasting due to axillary nerve damage can be evaluated on inspection by noting a flattening of the deltoid muscle; a squaring of the lateral acromion; the prominence of the acromion; and abnormal protrusion or flattening of the greater tuberosity.
		Within the space is the posterior humeral circumflex artery and the axillary nerve, which supplies the deltoid and teres minor muscles and skin of the posterolateral area of the shoulder and upper arm.

		This exercise works the entire deltoid area, but because you have to balance yourself on the ball it focuses on developing the small stabilizer muscles.

		The deltoid muscle is made up of three heads: the anterior deltoid, the middle deltoid and the posterior deltoid.
		The anterior deltoid is stretched by taking the humerus into horizontal abduction or by horizontal extension and adduction.
		By having a stronger comprehension of the proper biomechanics of the deltoid muscles, as well as correct methods in which to stretch this muscle, you can successfully design a program in which you can optimize your deltoid muscle potential.

	Bodybuilding.com - Workout Of The Week - What Is The Best Deltoid Workout?
		Since many programs emphasize more of the anterior and lateral deltoids, sticking in traps with the deltoids acts like more exercises to work the posterior deltoid so that it too is given a good workout, which is true for my program.
		The deltoids respond very well to volumizing movements - especially when you squeeze out rep after rep, causing more blood to be transported to the muscle, which conclusively kick starts the growth process in the muscle.
		The deltoids are a relatively small muscle group; therefore, they don't require as much time between sets as a larger muscle group such as the legs.

		If you need to discuss how to perform these deltoid exercises please post them in our Exercise Forum under the heading of the exercise.
		The anterior deltoid assists the pectoralis major during shoulder transverse flexion (which means that you work the front of your shoulders when you push something).The primary function of the anterior deltoid is for shoulder abduction.
		The deltoids other functions are shoulder flexion, transverse flexion and internal rotation.The origin of the anterior deltoid is the clavicle (anterior lateral third).The insertion of the anterior deltoid is onto the lateral side of the humerous (deltoid tuberosity).Anterior deltoid training should be kept to a minimum if it is followed by chest the following day.
