what at the leg maintains the leg in an upright position

compartments of leg
ANT: TA, peroneus tertius, EHL, EDL

LOG falls ______ to knee joint so what muscles are involved
anterior, so posterior knee muscles (soleus) are involved
LOG falls _______ to hip axis so what muscles are involved
posterior, so anterior hip muscles (iliacus) are involved
ankle strategy happens
when challenge is small
hip strategy happens
when challenge is large and fast
