What 2 structures would you locate to landmark for psoas major?
NAVAL
and
ASIS
To isolate biceps femoris from semitendinosus and semimembranosus, what action would you have your patient perform (In addition to knee flexion)?
LATERAL ROTATION
When isolating soleus from gastrocnemius ,what position can you put your patient in to make gastrocnemius actively insufficient?
***When a muscle reaches a point where it cannot shorten any farther it is has reached active insufficiency.
KNEE FLEXION
What muscle can you follow from its proximal attachment at the ASIS to its distal attachment at the proximal medial shaft of the tibia?
SARTORIUS
TRUE or FALSE
When palpating any quadriceps muscle, have your patient flex the hip to activate the muscle.
FALSE

and
INVERSION
Which muscle tendons are visible on the dorsal region of the foot, when your patient performs resisted toe (2-5) extension?
