Popliteus answer >>>>> A: Rotates tibia medially on the femur, or
femur laterally on tibia. Brings knee out of full extension. Helps with
posterior stability of knee
O: Lateral condyle of the femur
I: Posterior surface of tibia above solely line.
Plantar is answer >>>>> A: plantar flexes and inverts the foot at the
ankle, flexes the leg at the knee.
O: Lower part of lateral supracondylar line of femur, and oblique
popliteal ligament of knee.
I: Posterior part of the calcaneus medial to the Achilles tendon.
Peroneus Longus answer >>>>> A: Eversion and plantar flexion of foot
at ankle. Gives lateral stability to the ankle.
O: Head and proximal 2/3 of lateral tibia
I: Lateral margin of plantar surface of 1st cuneiform and metatarsal.
Peroneus Brevis answer >>>>> A: Eversion and plantar flexion of the
foot at the ankle. Gives lateral stability to the ankle.
O: Distal 2/3 of the lateral fibula.
I: Tuberosity on lateral side of 5th metatarsal

Peroneus Tetris answer >>>>> A: Dorsiflexes and everts the foot at the
ankle.
O: Distal 1/3 of anterior surface of fibula.
I: Dorsal surface of 5th metatarsal.
Extensor Halluces Longus answer >>>>> A: Extends distal phalanx of big
toe. Continued action extends proximal phalanx and dorsiflexes and
inverts the foot at the ankle.
O: Middle 1/2 of the anterior surface of fibula,
I: Dorsal surface of base of distal phalanx of hallux (big toe)
Extensor Digit rum Longus answer >>>>> A: Extends the lateral 4 toes.
Dorsiflexes and everts foot at the ankle.
O: Lateral condyle of tibia, head and proximal 3/4 of the anterior
surface of fibula.
I: Divides into 4 tendons after passing under extensor retinaculum to
insert on dorsal surfaces of bases of middle and distal phalanges of the
2nd-5th toes.
Flexor Hallucis Longus answer >>>>> Action:
Flexion of great toe
Plantar flexion of foot
Inversion of foot
Origin:
, STOTT PILATES
Fibula (posterior shaft)
Interosseous membrane
Insertion:
Distal phalanx of great toe
Comment:
Powerful muscle for "push-off" of foot during walking and running
Flexor Digit rum Longus answer >>>>> Action:
Flexion of toes 2-5
Plantar flexion of foot
Inversion of foot
Origin:
Tibia (posterior middle shaft)
Insertion:
Distal phalanges of toes 2-5
Comment:
Tendon provides attachment for quadratus plantae (insertion) and
numerical (origin) muscles
Vast us Medial is answer >>>>> A: Extends leg at knee and draws
patella medially. O: Lower 1/2 of intertrochanteric line, tendons of
adductor Magnus and adductor longus
