8
Q
Deep Longitudinal Subsystem Function
A
- Stabilization of the lumbosacral joint complex and medial longitudinal arch of foot,
- Eccentric deceleration of forward leg swing and control of pronation and supination of the foot ankle/complex from heel strike through mid-stance,
- Potentially the primary mechanism of propulsion during lower intensity walking,
- Proprioceptive mechanism communicating information about ground reaction forces during high intensity activity.
