Epimuscular myofascial force transmission between the levator scapulae muscle and the upper fiber of the serratus anterior or rhomboid minor muscles

These findings indicate that the shear modulus of the serratus anterior increased with the stretching of the levator scapulae, suggesting the occurrence of epimuscular myofascial force transmission between these two muscles with different muscle insertions.
