The
How Much Do We Need To Know On Muscles?”
Guide!
S Porter
Every year students ask me how much detail they need to know on muscles, the tables
below give you the absolute minimum that you need to know to have a fighting chance of
passing

Lower Limb Muscles
This is the least that you need to know for your exams, but if you learn more, then it will
not be wasted.
Muscle Origin Insertion Action
Gluteus maximus
outer surface of ilium, sacrum, coccyx, sacrotuberous ligament
75% iliotibial tract and 25% gluteal tuberosity of femur
extends & laterally rotates thigh; through iliotibial tract, it extends knee joint
Gluteus medius outer surface of ilium
greater trochanter
abducts thigh. Tilts pelvis when walking
Gluteus minimus outer surface of ilium
greater trochanter
abduct thigh; anterior fibers medially rotate thigh
Tensor fasciae latae iliac crest
iliotibial tract assists gluteus mx in locking the knee into full extension
Piriformis lateral rotator of thigh
Superior gemellus lateral rotator of thigh
Obturator internus lateral rotator of thigh
Inferior gemellus lateral rotator of thigh
Pectineus lateral rotator of thigh
Obturator externus
lateral rotator of thigh
Sartorius anterior superior iliac spine
upper medial surface of tibia
flexes, abducts, laterally rotates hip flexes knee – like looking at the sole of your own foot.
Iliacus
iliac fossa
lesser trochanter
flexes thigh on trunk; if thigh is fixed, it flexes the trunk onto the thigh as in doing a sit up
Psoas
12th thoracic body; transverse process, bodies & intervertebral discs of the 5 lumbar vertebrae
lesser trochanter along with iliacus
flexes thigh on trunk; if thigh fixed, it flexes trunk onto thigh as in doing a sit up

Rectus femoris
straight head from anterior inferior iliac spine; reflected head from ilium above acetabulum
quadriceps tendon into patella; into tibial tuberosity by patellar tendon
extension of knee
Vastus lateralis upper end and shaft of femur
quadriceps tendon into patella; into tibial tuberosity by patellar tendon
extension of knee
Vastus medialis upper end and shaft of femur
into tibial tuberosity by patellar tendon
extension of knee
Vastus intermedius shaft of femur
quadriceps tendon into patella; into tibial tuberosity by patellar tendon
extension of knee
Gracilis inferior ramus of pubis; ramus of ischium
upper part of shaft of tibia on medial surface
adducts thigh
Adductor longus body of pubis
posterior surface of shaft of femur
adducts thigh; assists in lateral rotation
Adductor brevis inferior ramus of pubis
posterior surface of shaft of femur
adducts thigh; assists in lateral rotation
Adductor magnus
inferior ramus of pubis; ramus of ischium, ischial tuberosity
posterior surface of shaft of femur near linea aspera; adductor tubercle of femur
adducts thigh and assists in lateral rotation; hamstring part extends thigh
Biceps femoris
long head ischial tuberosity; short head shaft of femur
head of fibula flexes and laterally rotates leg; long head extends thigh
Semitendinosus ischial tuberosity
upper part medial surface of shaft of tibia
flexes and medially rotates leg; extends thigh
Semimembranosus ischial tuberosity
medial condyle of tibia; forms oblique
flexes and medially rotates leg; extends thigh

popliteal ligament
Tibialis anterior
shaft of tibia and interosseous membrane
medial cuneiform & base of first metatarsal
extends the foot; inverts foot at subtalar and transverse tarsal joints; supports medial longitudinal arch
Extensor digitorum
shaft of fibula and interosseous membrane
extensor expansion of lateral four toes
extends toes; dorsiflexes (extends) foot
Peroneus tertius
dorsiflexes (extends) foot; everts foot at subtalar and transverse tarsal joints
Extensor hallucis longus
shaft of fibula & interosseous membrane
base of distal phalanx of big toe
extends big toe; dorsiflexes (extends) foot; inverts foot at subtalar and transverse tarsal joints
Peroneus longus shaft of fibula
base of 1st metatarsal & medial cuneiform
plantar flexes foot; everts foot at subtalar & transverse tarsal joints; supports lateral longitudinal and transverse arches of foot
Peroneus brevis shaft of fibula base of 5th metatarsal bone
plantar flexes foot; everts foot at subtalar & transverse tarsal joints; supports lateral longitudinal arch
Gastrocnemius
medial and lateral condyles of femur
by way of Achilles tendon to calcaneum
plantar flexes ankle, flexes knee
Plantaris lateral supracondylar ridge of femur
plantar flexes foot; flexes knee
Soleus shafts of tibia and fibula
by way of achilles tendon into calcaneum
powerful plantar flexor of ankle
Popliteus lateral condyle of femur
shaft of tibia flexes knee, unlocks knee by laterally rotating femur on tibia
Flexor digitorum longus
shaft of tibia distal phalanges of lateral four
flexes distal phalanges of lateral four toes; plantar flexes,supports medial and lateral longitudinal
![Page 5: Untitled](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072002/563db926550346aa9a9a82b3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
toes arches
Flexor hallucis longus
shaft of fibula base of distal phalanx of big toe
flexes distal phalanx of big toe; plantar flexes foot; supports medial longitudinal arch
Tibialis posterior
shafts of tibia and fibula & interosseous membrane
tuberosity of navicular
plantar flexes foot; inverts foot at subtalar and transverse tarsal joints; supports medial longitudinal arch of foot
Extensor digitorum brevis
calcaneum
by four tendons into the proximal phalanx of big toe and long extensor tendons to 2nd, 3rd and 4th toes
extends toes,( looks like a bruise on top of the foot
