    -45-55 ext
42
Q

frontal plane: pelvic

A

pelvis rotate in the formal according to which leg stance

43
Q

frontal plane: hip

A

causes slight and/add at the hip

44
Q

ankle motion in frontal plane

A

initial contact - inversion
- everts quacking during loading response

45
Q

when opposite side of the pelvis is rotating forward to face toward the stance limb this creates

A

internal rotation of the stance hip

46
Q

when opposite side of the pelvis is rotating backward to face away from the stance limb, this creates

A

external rotation of the stance hip

47
Q

Horizontal plane - hip starts at

A

ER at initial contact and begin during opposite foot flat (toe off)

48
Q

trunk rotates toward the stance limb in the

A

horizontal plane

49
Q

erector spine

A

eccentric to control forward trunk

50
Q

rectus abdominis

A

stablize (isometic0

51
Q

glute max

A

eccentric to decelerate thigh - concentric to initia hip extensors

52
Q

iliopsoas, rectus femoris, sartoris

A

eccentric to control hip extensor - concentric to initiate swing

53
Q

hip abductors (med, min, tfl)

A

active during single lim - support hip adductors

54
Q

hip adductors

A

active in early stance phase to stabilize hip and to help with hip extensor: second burst likely to assist hip flexion

55
Q
A
56
Q

knee extensors

A
  • eccentric to absorb load
  • concentric to lift body
57
Q

hamstrings

A

active before IC

58
Q
A
59
Q

dorsiflexors
