Knee flexor

A number of muscles cross over more than one joint. The length of these muscles maybe inadequate to permit complete ROM of all joints involved. When a multijoint muscle simultaneously shortens at all joints it crosses, further effective tension development is prevented. This phenomena is called active insufficiency. For example, when the hamstrings are tested as knee flexors with the hip extended, less tension can be developed than when the hamstrings are tested with the hip flexed. Therefore, when testing the strength of multijoint muscles, the position of aU involved joints must be considered. [Pg.1250]

Limiting resource A performance resource at any hierarchical level (e.g., vertical lift strength and knee flexor speed) that is available in an amount that is less than the worst case demand imposed by a task. Thus, a given resource can only be limiting when considered in the context of a specific task. [Pg.447]

The flexor muscles of the knee are located in the posterior compartment of the thigh. They are the hamstrings, the gracilis, the sartorius, the popliteus, and the gastrocnemius muscles. AU of these muscles are biarticular, with the exception of the popliteus and the short head of the biceps. Their action on knee flexion is related to the position of the hip. Rotation of the knee is also a function of these knee flexors. [Pg.485]

The attachment of the semitendinosus, sarto-rius, and gracilis, also knee flexors, below and medial to the knee joint may be tender in the presence of pes anserine bursitis. [Pg.488]

The popliteus and the short head of the biceps are the only two knee flexors that are one joint muscles. All the others are two joint muscles. [Pg.488]
