the anterior compartment of the hip joint is made up of these muscles

(1) = iliopsoas (psoas major + iliacus)

(2) = psoas minor

<p>(1) = iliopsoas (psoas major + iliacus)</p><p>(2) = psoas minor</p>

17
New cards

what is the action of the gluteus maximus?

New cards

what is the action of the gluteus medius & minimus?

- abducts thigh

- medially rotates thigh

- stabilizes pelvis during walking

New cards

what are the actions of the sartorius muscle?

- flexes knee

- flexes hip
