practical hamstring muscles Flashcards
1
Q
hamstring muscles
A
semimembranosus, semitendinosus, biceps femoris
2
Q
hamstring muscle commonalities
A
origin = ischial tuberosity
action = hip extension + knee flexion
innervation= tibial n
3
Q
semimembranosus
A
o = ischial tuberosity
i = medial tibial condyle
a = hip extension and knee flexion
in = tibial n
4
Q
semitendinosus
A
o= ischial tuberosity
i = medial aspect of proximal tibia
a= hip extension and knee flexion
in= tibial n
5
Q
biceps femoris
A
o= ischial tuberosity/linea aspera
i= head of fibula
a = hip extension+knee flexion
in= tibial+fibular n
