kinetics frontal Flashcards
initial contact
GRF lateral (in preparation for eversion in the next phase
loading response
subtalar /rearfoot - GRF lateral causing eversion tibialis anterior and posterior eccentrically contracts
patella - internal rotation of the leg controlled by tensor fascia latae and gluetus maximus
pelvis - hip adduction (due to the transfer of weight to the stance limb) controlled by eccentric contractions of gluteus medius
midstance
subtalar /rearfoot - GFR lateral eversion when tibialis posterior eccentrically contracts (early) GFR medial and slight inversion as tibialis posterior isometrically contracts.
pelvis - hip abduction; gluteus medius concentrically contracts
terminal swing
subtalar /rearfoot - GFR medial causing inversion as tibialis posterior eccentrically contracts.
pelvis - abduction controlled by tensor fascia latae
pre swing
subtalar /rearfoot - GFR close to subtalar joint but inversion due to the tibialis posterior concentrically contracting
pelvis - adductor longus and gracillis eccentrically contract to control hip abduction
