What ligs support the medial talocrural jt and what do they resistq
deltoid ligament- resist talar abduction, lat translation + lat rotation
What ligs support the lateral talocrural jt and what do they resist
ATFL- mc strained in plantar flex
CFL- neutral foot for strain
PTFL- resists df, adduction and medial translation of talus
