A

Fibularis longus

42
Q

Where is the body vector during Mst, and Tst in terms of the knee?

A

moves anteriorly during Mst and is ant during Tst

43
Q

During Tsw, the hamstrings are active. What are they doing?

A 
Contracting eccentrically (most m torque produced) to decelerate and prevent excessive knee extension
- very active during speed work
44
Q

What phases is glut max on?

A

IC, LR, and Tsw

45
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during IC/LR?

A
  1. Quads(eccentric) and hamstrings still active from Tsw

2. TFL eccentrically contracts to counteract IR of tibia and ADDuction (various) torque

46
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during IC/LR?

A

DF, eccentrically to stop foot slap

47
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during LR?

A
  1. Hip extensors are all active (hamstrings, add mag, and glut max)
  2. Glut med fires when unsupported side of pelvis drops
  3. IR decelerated by the glut max
48
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Mst?

A

PF minimally (25% MMT) eccentrically to control tibia from ant translation over foot

49
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Mst?

A
  1. Quads active until BV moves ant
  2. ITB concentrically provides lateral stability
  3. Soleus lightens the load on quads by restraining tibia (prevets ant translation of tibia, allows for better knee ext)
50
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during Mst?

A

BV moves posteriorly; glut med still working, TFL helps

51
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Tst?

A

PF (to 80% MMT), switches to concentric

- BV far away from BOS

52
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Tst?

A
  1. 3 extensor forces on the knee:
    - Strong soles activity
    - BV anterior
    - ITB
    (counteracting these forces are popliteus and gastro - unlocks knee then start to see hamstring activity)
  2. End of Tst knee starts to flex
    - tibial stability is lost
    - gastro and popliteus keeps firing
53
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during Tst?

A

TFL continues to supply abductor force

54
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Psw?

A

Decrease in PF activity

55
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Psw?

A
  • no more foot stability and knee rolls forward
    1. gastroc and popliteus still active
    2. Rectus femoris (active for hip flexion and keeps knee from flexing too far)
56
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during Psw?

A

rectus femoris concentrically

57
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Isw?

A

DF active to 25% MMT

58
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Isw?

A
  • knee flexes further from rapid hip flexion momentum
    1. short head of biceps femurs causes further knee flexion
    2. sartorius and gracilis help knee flexion
    3. eccentric rectus to check flexion
59
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during Isw?

A

Active gracilis and sartorius

- momentum also helping

60
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Msw?

A

DF to 40% concentric, then switches to isomentric

61
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Msw?

A

none, passive extension

62
Q

What muscles are active at the ankle during Tsw?

A

DF still firing

63
Q

What muscles are active at the knee during Tsw?

A
  1. Quads activate to lift tibia and foot

2. hamstrings activate eccentrically to decelerate and prevent excessive knee ext

64
Q

What muscles are active at the hip during Tsw?

A
  1. hamstrings concentrically contract to stop leg
  2. Glut max and adductor mag also fire
  3. Glut med activates at end of the phase
65
Q

When is the erector spinae m’s active?

A

Just after heel contact and Psw (corresponding with heel contact of opposite limb)
- controls the forward angular momentum of the trunk relative to the hips

66
Q

When is the rectus abdominis active?

A

when the hip flexors are actively flexing the hip

- stabilizes the pelvis and lumbar spine for a stable fixation point for the hip flexor muscles

67
Q

What is the primary fxn of the rectus femoris?

A
  • active during transition to swing phase

- initiate hip flexion and control knee flexion

68
Q

When is tib ant active?

A
  1. Heel contact - eccentric activation controls passive PF and pronation of foot (weakness = foot slap)
  2. Swing phase - concentric activation to clear foot (weakness = drop foot)
69
Q

When are the PF m’s active during stance?

A
  1. NOT active during IC/LR - PF occurs passively
  2. Eccentric control during midstance
  3. major burst of concentric activity during Tst and shuts off at toe off
    - soleus = primary PF, gastroc active at Isw (produces a knee flexion force if active during stance)
70
Q

When is tib post active?

A
  1. Eccentrically during 5-35% of gait (LR to midstance) to decelerate pronation
  2. Concentrically at 35-55% of gait (end of Mst to Psw) to supinate foot
71
Q

The posteriorly directed GRF at __[gait phase]__ momentarily [speeds up/ slows down] the forward progression of the body. Conversely, the body momentarily [speeds up/ slows down] the forward progression of the body at __[gait phase]__ as a result of an anteriorly directed GRF.

A

heel contact; slows down
speeds up; toe off
- note: braking from contra limb occurs during double limb support which is balanced buy the toe off of the ipsi limb
- speeding up or slowing down requires greater breaking force or propulsive force, respectively

72
Q

During stance, an internal abduction torque at the knee counters the ______ torque created by the GRF.

A

Adduction (varus) torque

- created by GRF passing medial to the knee
