The rhomboid major is a skeletal muscle of the back that connects the scapula with the vertebrae of the spinal column. [1] It originates from the spinous processes of the thoracic vertebrae T2–T5 and supraspinous ligament; it inserts onto the lower portion of the medial border of the scapula. [2]
There are two rhomboid muscles on each side of the upper back: [1] [2] [3] Rhomboid major muscle; Rhomboid minor muscle; The large rhombus-shaped muscle, located under the trapezius muscle, in the upper part of the thoracic region of the back, and the small muscle, in the same way, participate in the movement of the scapula.

The major muscles involved in retraction include the rhomboid major muscle, rhomboid minor muscle and trapezius muscle, [2] [3] whereas the major muscles involved in protraction include the serratus anterior and pectoralis minor muscles. [4] [5]
The posterior axioappendicular muscles are described as two sub-groups: [1] [3] Superficial Posterior Axioappendicular muscles (or the extrinsic shoulder muscles) Trapezius; Latissimus dorsi; Deep Posterior Axioappendicular muscles (or the intrinsic shoulder muscles) Levator scapulae; Rhomboid minor; Rhomboid major
Bicycle performance is measurable performance such as energy efficiency that affect how effective a bicycle is. Bicycles are extraordinarily efficient machines; in terms of the amount of energy a person must expend to travel a given distance, cycling is calculated to be the most efficient self-powered means of transportation .
