| Muscle | Origin | Insertion | Action | Nerve |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extensor Digitorum Longus | Fibula, interosseous membrane and tibia | Distal phalanx of four lesser toes | Extension of four lesser toes and assists in ankle dorsiflexion | Deep fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Extensor Hallucis Longus | Fibula and interosseous membrane | Distal phalanx of greater toe | Extends first toe IP and MTP joints and assists in ankle inversion and dorsiflexion | Deep fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Fibularis Longus | Lateral proximal fibula and interosseous membrane | Plantar surface of first cuneiform and metatarsal | Ankle eversion and assists in ankle plantar flexion | Superficial fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Flexor Digitorum Longus | Posterior tibia | Distal phalanx of four lesser toes | Flexion of four lesser toes and assists in inversion and plantar flexion of the ankle | Tibial nerve (L5, S1, S2) |
| Soleus | Posterior tibia and fibula | Posterior calcaneus | Ankle plantar flexion | Tibial nerve (L5, S1, S2) |
| Gastrocnemius | Medial and lateral condyles of femur | Posterior calcaneus | Knee flexion and ankle plantar flexion | Tibial nerve (L5, S1, S2) |
| Tibialis Anterior | Lateral tibia and interosseous membrane | First cuneiform and first metatarsal | Ankle inversion and dorsiflexion | Deep fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Tibialis Posterior | Interosseous membrane, adjacent tibia and fibula | Navicular and most tarsals and metatarsals | Assist ankle plantar flexion, ankle inversion | Tibial Nerve (L5, S1) |
| Plantaris Muscle | Posterior, lateral tibia | Posterior Calcaneus | Very week assist in knee flexion, ankle inversion | Tibial Nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Fibularis Brevis | Lateral distal fibula | Tuberosity on base of fifth metatarsal | Ankle eversion; assists in plantar flexion | Superficial fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Fibularis Tertius Muscle | Distal medial fibula | Tuberosity on base of fifth metatarsal | Assists somewhat in ankle eversion and dorsiflexion | Deep fibular nerve (L4, L5, S1) |
| Flexor Hallucis Longus | Posterior fibula and interosseous membrane | Distal phalanx of the great toe | Flexes great toe; assists in inversion and plantar flexion of the ankle | Tibial nerve (L5, S1, S2) |
