Today we have prepared a special material from our anatomy teacher. The text below will be very helpful for your anatomy studies.
Muscles do not always play a key role (in the context of anatomical analysis), especially when it comes to a model with underdeveloped musculature or an excess of subcutaneous fat. This can largely apply to any non-athletic body type. This is also relevant when working with a female model, characterized by a predominance of plasticity and a certain generalization of form. In such cases, it is much more important to divide the figure into specific zones or areas; such structuring helps outline the overall construction and reveal greater plasticity (greater movement). These areas may correspond to a single muscle or a group of muscles. The boundaries of plastic zones can be "rigid," quite specific, or "soft," sometimes barely noticeable (the first occurs during strong muscle group tension and is generally characteristic of "dry" and "athletic" models, while the second case is more typical of relaxed muscles and "full" models). The outlines and size of these areas are also not always constant: they can deform, increase, and decrease as a result of various movements (these changes can be especially noticeable in the torso, resulting from the work of the shoulder girdle and bends or twists in the lumbar region).
