O and I of Gastrocnemius:
O = Condyles of the femur, posterior surfaces
I = Calcaneus via calcaneal tendon
O and I of Soleus
O = Soleal line; proximal, posterior surface of tibia and posterior head of fibula
I = Calcaneus via calcaneal tendon
O and I of Plantaris
O = Lateral Supracondylar line of femur
I = Calcaneus via calcaneal tendon
O and I of Tibialis Posterior
O = Promixal, posterior shafts of tibia + fibula, and interosseous membrane
I = All 5 tarsal bones and bases of 2nd to 4th MT’s
O and I of Flexor Hallucis Longus
O = Middle half of posterior fibula
I = Big Toe (distal phalanx of 1st toe)
O and I of Flexor Digitorum Longus
O = Middle, posterior surface of tibia
I = 2-5 toes (distal phalanges of 2nd to 5th toes)
O and I of Peroneus Longus
O = Head of fibula and proximal 2/3’s of lat. fib
I = Base 1st MT, and medial cuneiform
O and I of Peroneus Brevis
O = Distal 2/3’s of lat. fib
I = Base 5th MT
O and I of Tibialis Anterior
O = Lateral condyle of tibia; proximal, lateral surface of tibia and interosseous membrane
