-
Iliopsoas
- PA: Anterior Lumbar vertebrae, Proximal iliac fossa,
- DA: Proximal medial femur,
Function: hip flexion (trunk pulled down, leg pulled up), Exterior rotation of the femur.
-
Gluteus Maximus
- PA: Outer surface of ilium, Lateral sacrum,
- DA: Posterior proximal femur,
Function: hip extension, tilting back/flattening of the back
-
Gluteus medius and minimus
- PA: outer surface of ilium,
- DA: lateral proximal femur,
Function: hip adduction
-
Quadriceps femoris (3 vastus)
- PA 3 vastus: (intermedius, lateralis, medialis): all around the proximal femur,
- DA: Anterior proximal tibia (tibial tuberosity),
Function: knee extension ONLY
-
Adductors (5)
- PA: Pubis,
- DA: Medial femur,
Function: hip adduction
-
