The vastus medialis muscle does the following:
Extends the leg at the knee.This means that the vastus medialis muscle straightens the leg at the knee joint such that there is an increase in the angle between the lower leg and the upper leg.
medial collateral ligament (MCL): The MCL connects your femur to your tibia along the inside of your knee. It keeps the inner part of your knee stable and helps control the sideways motion of your knee, like keeping it from bending inward.

MEDIAL : The inner side (or arch side) of a shoe
MEDIAL POST : Denser midsole material (often gray) added to the medial (or arch side) of the midsole to provide stability and control excessive pronation.
Vastus Medialis
Also originating from the femur, the vastus medialis extends down the medial side (inner area) of the thigh and inserts into the patella. This muscle makes up the much sought-after “tear drop' look.

Breaks (fracture) of the kneecap, lower portion of the femur, or upper part of the tibia or fibula.
Let the foot of your anchor leg roll towards it medial (big toe) side as you lower your body (don't try to keep the sole of your foot on the floor as you lower the body).
Walk into any gym today (aside from the one I train people at, of course) and you're likely to see guys trying to isolate their "medial deltoids" with machines that look like something out of a medieval torture chamber, ...
This muscle has three parts, anterior deltoid (the front), medial deltoid (the middle), and posterior deltoid (the rear). Different movements target the different heads.
RESULTS: There were no significant differences between blacks and whites in isolated MTH, PANG, and fascicle length in the triceps long head, vastus lateralis, and gastrocnemius medialis muscles.

When the VMO or vastus medialis obliquus muscle (located in the inner part of the front thigh) is weak, the kneecap tends to be pulled to the outside. The can eventually lead to knee pain. Strengthening the VMO is one way to prevent knee pain.
SHOULDERS - ANTERIOR and MEDIAL DELTOID (DELTS)
The Deltoid muscles originate from the clavicle, and scapulae and insert on the humerous.The Deltoid is composed of 3 muscles.
primary muscle: Deltoid- Anterior, Medial and Posterior (or front, middle and rear)
attachment: the deltoids start on the collar-bone and shoulder blade and attaches to the humerus (the large bone in the upper arm) ...
The Triceps brachii muscle is made up of three individual heads, the Long head, Lateral head and Medial head. While they all have different origins they all have the same insertion, which is the elbow. Their prime movement is extension of the elbow.
Vastus intermedius, lateralis and medialis - 3 of the 4 muscles of the thigh that make up the quadriceps. Strong quads help protect your knees. The 4th muscle is the rectus femoris. Cycling, skiing, running and hiking downhill work these muscles! ...
What it could be:
Medial tibial stress syndrome (better known as shin splints)
How it happened:
The "terrible too's" (too much, too soon, too often, too fast, too hard) are usually to blame.
Shin splints (medically known as medial tibial stress syndrome) can cause excessive pain/inflammation in the shin area. It's usually caused by running, sprinting or excessive jumping. The following is my recommendation: ...
Adductors: Muscles that draw a part toward the medial line of the body.
ADP (Adenosine Diphospahate): A compound of adenosine containing two phosphoric acid groups. It is used to synthesize ATP with the energy released in cell respiration.
Movement of a limb inwards towards the body or medially
adductor machine
An apparatus that resists against the leg as you contract your leg towards your body from a wide-leg position to the standing with legs together position.
Altman states that the simple act of walking causes an "increased impact on the medial compartment of the knee by six fold." This stress, repeated countless times over decades, can traumatize the knee joint, especially in overweight people.
This exercise works the medial (side) deltoids. Secondary stress is applied to the front deltoids and the forearms.

Pro-Moderator medial support device prevents over-pronation. Outsole: QuickStrike for best lightweight durability and flexibility. Decoupled heel to deflect impact shock. Flex grooves for optimum forefoot flexibility.
This exercise allows you to work each delt independently of the other, so that your complete concentration can be on one arm at a time. It mainly works the front and medial heads of the deltoid complex.

The reason this stretch is harmful is that it stretches the medial ligaments of the knee (remember, stretching ligaments and tendons is bad) and crushes the meniscus. It can also result in slipping of the knee cap from being twisted and compressed.
It can help eliminate the use of the delts but increases the use of the forearms. It is necessary to use a lighter load with the underhanded grip but it may be more effective for the inner triceps (medial head).
and dumbbells.
4) Remember to keep head and back upright in a neutral position. Shoulders and hips should remain squared at all times.
5) Watch for proper knee alignment - do not let front knee extend past big toe or deviate laterally or medially.
