External rotators of arm
Supraspinatus
Infraspinatus

Axillary nerve muscle supply
Deltoid
Teres minor
Shoulder abductor muscles?
Supraspinatus (0−15 )
Deltoid (middle fibres) (15−90 )
Trapezius and serratus anterior (over 90 ): which will require upward rotation of the scapula with lateral rotation of the humerus.
