The video tutorial explains the omohyoid muscle, also known as the shoulder blade tongue leg muscle. It is part of the infra hyoid muscles responsible for throat, head, and tongue bone movement. The omohyoid consists of two muscular bellies and connects to various neck structures.

The muscle is innervated by the cervical plexus, with fibers from spinal segments C1 to C3.
