Superior gemellus (deep hip rotator) Origin: spine of ischium Insertion: greater trochanter of femur Function: lateral rotation
inferior gemellus (deep hip rotator) Origin: ischium Insertion: greater trochanter of femur Function: lateral rotation
Quadratus femoris (deep hip rotator) origin: ischial tuberosity insertion: greater trochanter of femur function: lateral rotation of hip
piriformis (deep hip rotator) origin: anterior sacrum insertion: greater trochanter of femur function: lateral rotation (sciatic nerve- largest nerve cord in body passes through the sciatic notch of oscoxa then piriformis. sciatic nerve enervates posterior thigh and lower leg.)
Obturator externus (deep hip rotator) origin: obturator foramen insertion: greater trochanter of femus function: lateral rotation of hip joint
gluteus minimis (gluteal muscles) origin: posterior ilium b/w anterior and inferior gluteal lines insertion: greater trochanter of femur function: abductor of hip joint, medial rotation of femur at hip
gluteus medius (gluteal muscles) origin: iliac crest b/w anterior and posterior gluteal lines insertion: greater trochanter of femur function: abduction of hip joint, medial rotation of femur at hip
gluteus maximus (gluteal mucles) origin: posterior sacrum, posterior iliac crest insertion: gluteal tuberosity of femur and iliotibial tract function: extension of femur at hip, lateral rotation of extended hip, assist with abduction of hip joint
tensor fascia latae (gluteal muscles) origin: anterior iliac crest, ASIS insertion: iliotibal tract function: assist with abduction, medial rotation, flexion of femur at hip, extension of knee
psoas major (hip flexor) origin: t12-L5 insertion: lesser trochanter of femur function: flexion and weak lateral rotation
iliacus (hip flexor) origin: inner surface of ilium insertion: lesser trochanter of femur function: flexion and weak lateral rotation
pectimeus (medial thigh compartment) origin: pectineal line of pubis insertion: linea aspera function: adduction and flexion of hip joint
adductor brevis (medial thigh compartment) origin: external surface of pubic body and inferior ramus insertion: linea aspera function: adduction of hip joint, lateral rotation when off ground... medial with on ground
adductor longus (medial thigh compartment) origin: anterior surface of pubis insertion: linea aspera function: adduction and flexion of hip
adductor minimis (medial thigh compartment) origin: inferior pubic ramus insertion: gluteal tuberosity function: adduction of hip
adductor magnus (medial thigh compartment) origin: ischial ramus and ischial tuberosity insertion: linea aspera and medial supracondylar line function: adduction and extension of hip
gracilis (medial thigh compartment) origin: inferior ramus of pubis insertion: anteromedial surface of proximal tibia function: flexion of knee, medial rotation of knee, assist with adduction of hip
Vastus intermedius (anterior thigh compartment) origin: anterior and lateral femoral shaft insertion: tibial tuberosity function: extension of knee (quadricep)
vastus lateralis (anterior thigh compartment) origin: greater trochanter insertion: tibial tuberosity function: extension of knee (quadricep)
vastus medialis (anterior thigh compartment) origin: linea aspera insertion: tibial tuberosity function: extension of knee (quadricep)
rectus femoris (anterior thigh compartment) origin: spine of ilium insertion: tibial tuberosity function: flexion of hip, extension of knee (quadricep)
sartorius (anterior thigh compartment) origin: ASIS insertion: tibia surface function: flexion and lateral rotation of hip, flexion of knee
biceps femoris (posterior thigh compartment) origin: ischial tuberosity, linea aspera function: head of fibula function: extension of hip, flexion of knee
semimembranosus (posterior thigh compartment) origin: ischial tuberosity insertion: medial condyle of tibia function: extension of hip, flexion of knee
semitendinosus (posterior thigh compartment) origin: ischial tuberosity insertion: medial shaft of tibia function: extension of hip, flexion of knee
popliteus (posterior crural compartment) origin: lateral condyle of femur insertion: posterior proximal tibial shaft function: unlocks knee
soleus (posterior crural compartment) origin: soleal line of tibia insertion: calcaneus function: planter flexion
gastrocnemius (posterior crural compartment) origin: medial and lateral epicondyle of femur insertion: calcaneus function: planter flexion of ankle, assist with flexion of knee
plantaris (posterior crural compartment) origin: lateral condyle of femur insertion: calcaneus function: planter flexion of ankle, assist with flexion of knee
ischial spine seperates greater and lesser sciatic nerves

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
