Perimysium
|

Deep fascia

Endomysium

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Each muscle is surrounded by a connective tissue sheath called the epimysium.
Detailed explanation-2: -Muscle fibres are grouped together in muscle bundles or fascicles and are surrounded by perimysium, or fibro-adipose septa, which contains vessels and nerves. A thicker connective tissue sheath, the epimysium, surrounds the whole muscle. Muscles lie deep to the deep fascia.
Detailed explanation-3: -Epimysium (plural epimysia) (Greek epi-for on, upon, or above + Greek mys for muscle) is the fibrous tissue envelope that surrounds skeletal muscle. It is a layer of dense irregular connective tissue which ensheaths the entire muscle and protects muscles from friction against other muscles and bones.
