Superficial Fibular L4, 5, S1 Plantaris Assists with plantarflexion of the ankle Controlled by the superficial fibular nerve Fibularis brevis Tibialis posterior is where on the tibia and fibula? Posterior surface Even though it is located on top of the foot, it helps with extending the toes Extensor digitorum brevis The Tibial L4, S1, 2 is the nerve for what muscle? Flexor Hallucis Longus The Plantaris is innervated By what nerve? Tibial L4, 5, S1, (2) Attaches to the base of the 5th metatarsal Fibularis brevis Gastrocnemius is on the medial and lateral what? Femoral condyles Deep/behind gastrocnemius and important for posture. Soleus The Abductor Digiti Minimi inserts where? Proximal Phalanx of fifth toe Ends on the distal phalanges of toes 2–5 Flexor digitorum longus It's located on the medial side (abducts big toe) Abductor hallucis What Everts the foot? Fibularis Brevis Where does the Flexor Hallucis Longus Insert at? Distal Phalanx of first toe Attaches to the distal phalanx of the big toe Flexor hallucis longus The Soleus Does what? Plantarflexes the ankle without crossing over the knee It wraps under the foot to help support the arch. Fibularis longus Innervated by the same nerve as the gastrocnemius Soleus (tibial nerve) Inserts onto the heel via a common tendon Soleus Originating from the distal 2/3 of lateral fibula is what? Fibularis Brevis Tibialis Anterior does what to the foot and ankle. Invert the foot and Dorsiflex the ankle Shares innervation with most posterior leg muscles Flexor hallucis longus (tibial nerve) Unlocks the knee by rotating it Popliteus What muscle inserts at the proximal/posterior aspect of tibia? Popliteus The Fibularis tertius is distal where? Distal Portion of the fibula Gastrocnemius & Soleus Inserts where? Calcaneus via calcaneus tendon Extensor Hallucis Longus is innervated by what? Deep Fibular L4, 5, S1 Supplied by the nerve of the anterior compartment Tibialis anterior (deep fibular) Receives signals from the deep fibular nerve Extensor hallucis longus Flexor digitorum longus is on the posterior surface of... the tibia What muscle is the strongest dorsiflexor?
