Q

What is the role of gravity in standing?

A

It can act as an agonist or an antagonist so can change the position joints or also oppose movement

Q

What position is the hip in when standing?

A

It is pushed into extension so that the ligaments are tight and the joint is locked. Muscles aren’t active so this is energy efficient

Q

What is the position of the knee joint when standing?

Q

What is the position of the ankle joint when standing?

A

The joint falls into dorsiflexion and isn’t locked. Plantarflexors must stabilise the joint and so energy is consumed

Q

What forms the base of support for humans?

A

The feet but they aren’t large enough to be the only balance solution

32
Q

What assists in balance?

A

The bones, joints and muscles have special anatomical features

33
Q

How is standing for humans energy efficient?

A

It requires very little muscular effort (mostly in the ankle)

34
Q

What is bipedal walking?

A

A learned movement strategy of which is characteristic and the basic pattern is the gait style

35
Q

What are the two main phases of the gait cycle and what is also included?

A

Stance and swing but heel strike and toe off are also included

36
Q

What is some characteristics of the gait cycle?

A

It is complex and dynamic, involves lots of movements and muscles and has lots of phases

37
Q

What % of time does the swing phase account for?

A

40%

38
Q

What % of time does the stance phase account for?

A

60%

39
Q

Why is the stance phase longer than the swing phase?

A

Because there are times when both feet are on the ground

40
Q

What is the six stages of the gait cycle?

A

Early stance (includes heel strike), mid stance, late stance (includes toe off), early swing, mid-swing, late swing

41
Q

What is the position of the hip in early stance?

A

In flexion but moving to extension

42
Q

What is the action of the hip muscles in early stance?

A

Gluteus maximus and hamstrings are acting concentrically and iliopsoas and rectus femoris are acting eccentrically

43
Q

What is the position of the knee in early stance and why?

A

It is locked in extension for stability

44
Q

What is the action of the knee muscles in early stance?

A

Isometric activity of quadriceps, hamstrings and gastrocnemius

45
Q

What is the position of the ankle in early stance and why?

A

In dorsiflexion which is stable with the best bony congruence but moving to plantarflexion

46
Q

What is the action of the ankle muscles in early stance and why?

A

Triceps surae are acting concentrically and tibialis anterior is acting eccentrically to control the rate of the foot dropping to the ground

47
Q

What is the position of the hip in mid stance?

A

It is moving into extension

48
Q

What is the action of the hip muscles in mid stance?

A

gluteus maximus and harstrings are acting concentrically and iliopsoas and rectus femoris are acting eccentrically

49
Q

What is the position of the knee in mid stance and why?

A

Moving from extension to slight flexion to give a smoother movement

50
Q

What is the action of the knee muscles in mid stance?

A

Concentric action of hamstrings and gastrocnemius

51
Q

What is the position of the ankle in mid stance?

A

Moving into plantarflexion

52
Q

What is the action of the ankle muscles in mid stance?

A

Concentric action of triceps surae and eccentric action of tibialis anterior

53
Q

What is the position of the hip in late stance?

A

In extension

54
Q

What is the action of the hip muscles in late stance?

A

Iliopsoas and rectus femoris act eccentrically and gluteus maximus and hamstrings act concentrically

What is the position of the knee in late stance?

A

In extension as the ankle moves into full plantarflexion

56
Q

What is the action of the knee muscles in late stance?

A

Concentric action of hamstrings and gastrocnemius and eccentric action of quadriceps femoris

57
Q

What is the position of the ankle in late stance?

A

In full plantarflexion
