Lectures 11-18 Flashcards
Iliopsoas:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?(2)
- Anterior lumbar vertebrae (iliac fossa)
- Medial, proximal femur
- Hip flexion by bringing the knee up AND by bringing the trunk straight and downwards
Which two muscles is the iliopsoas made up of?
Psoas major (from the abdomen) Iliacus (from the iliac fossa)
What does the iliopsoas do?
It pulls on the lumbar vertebrae and the pelvis, tilting anteriorly
Stron abs help stabilize the ________

Name the muscles moving the femur (4)
Iliopsoas
Gluteus maximus
Gluteur medius & minimus
Adductors
Gluteus maximus:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Outer surface of the ilium & sacrum
- Posterior, proximal femur
- Hip extension (when leg starts in flexed position - ex climbing stairs)
Pelvis tilts backward (flattens the back)
Gluteus medius & minimus:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Outer surface of ilium
- Lateral proximal femur
- Hip abduction
Adductors: 1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function? 4. How many are there?
- Pubis
- Medial femur
- Hip adduction
- 5
Name the muscles moving the femur & tibia (2)

Hamstrings
Name the two parts of the quadriceps
3 vastus muscles
Rectus femoris
3 vastus muscles:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Proximal femur (all around)
- Anterior, proximal tibia (tibial tuberosity)
- Knee extension only
Rectus femoris:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Anterior ilium

- Knee extension
Hip flexion
Hamstrings:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Ischial tuberosity
- Posterior, proximal tibia (medial & lateral)
- Hip extension

1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Anterior, proximal 2/3 of tibia
- Top of first metatarsal
- Dorsiflexion
Soleus:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Posterior, proximal tibia
- Calcaneus
- Plantar flexion
Name the muscle that moves the foot and the tibia
Gastrocnemius
Gastrocnemius:
1. Proximal attachment? 2. Distal attachment? 3. Function?
- Posterior, (medial & lateral) distal femur
- Calcaneus
- Plantar flexion
Knee flexion
Name the muscles doing plantar flexion
Gastrocnemius & Soleus

Tibialis anterior
What are the four parts to Kinanthropometry?
- Size
- Proportionality
- Composition
- Shape
What are the five parts of the size structure?
- Stature (height)
- Mass (weight)
- Lengths (limbs, segments, bones)
- Girths
- Widths
Proportionality: (ratio/ index)
How do we calculate how one body segment compares to another segment?
By expressing one as a % of the other.
multiply one measure by 100 & then divide by the other measure
Proportionality: (ratio/ index)
That is, the ____ (______) measurement will be expressed as a % of the _____ (______) measurement.
Thus 1/2 indicates that the top measure is ____% of the bottom measure.
Top (numerator)
Lower (denominator)
50%
