Muscle Activity During the Gait Cycle
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- This video describes the muscle activity that occurs to facilitate pelvis and lower extremity movement during the gait cycle. We break down muscle contractions during each phase of gait for all three cardinal planes of motion to provide a comprehensive understanding of how we walk.
Simple, quick and super informative. Really liked the way you added the muscles to the video. Amazing job!
Thanks for taking the time to provide your input, it is much appreciated.
a tip: you can watch movies at Flixzone. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Damian Israel Yup, have been using Flixzone for since november myself :D
Excellent video! Will help me pass my Movement Science final tomorrow!
Glad it helped and thanks for watching.
Fantastic, very helpful thank you.

Beautiful
Thanks for watching, we hope you found it helpful.
Not sure this is entirely accurate ( Hip Flexor with leg in full ext / swing phase ) but still very helpful. thank you!
Towards the end of stance, the hip is near full extension and needs to transition to the swing phase and hip flexion motion. This is accomplished by the hip flexors. They turn on just before swing and contract until the hip has transitioned into a flexed position to propel the leg forward during swing. We hope that helps make things clearer and thanks for watching our videos.
great explanation... however i believe you should add hamstring in hip extension
Thanks for watching and for the feedback. It's true the hamstrings contribute to hip extension, however their biggest contribution during gait occurs at the knee which is why we covered their contractile activity in that section.
@@physicaltherapyeducationso4585 thanks for explanation 💪
Can I get more details about the gait and stability.
Thank you for watching our channel. If you have a more specific question, we will do our best to answer it however a general discussion about gait and stability would be difficult in this forum. As a very rough starting point, muscles that function in the sagittal plane move us and those in the frontal and transverse plane work to stabilize us during gait.
Thanks again for the video, there a way to have the table?
Thank you for watching. We will try to put together all of the tables and will post with the video.
Super
Thank you for supporting our channel.
Why don’t the hamstrings contract concentrically during the push off?
Because we are in a closed chain (foot on the ground), if the hamstrings contracted they would pull the rest of the thigh and body down towards the ground, or if we allowed the foot to break contact they would lift the foot off of the ground which would eliminate the ability of the foot and calf muscles to propel the body forward. It would lead to a much less efficient gait pattern. The knee bends during push off due to ankle plantar flexion and hip flexion. Hope that is helpful.
@@physicaltherapyeducationso4585well explained sir..
I am looking for this video .
Nice
Thanks for supporting our channel and for the kind words.
How does the angle or slope change which muscles are being used more ?
A thorough examination of how the slope of the walking surface changes muscle activity would be quite lengthy, but here are a couple of observations. The general pattern and muscles used will be similar, but the amount and type of muscle contraction will change significantly between walking up a slope or down a slope. Walking uphill will require more concentric muscle activity from our quads and hip extensor mm and the stride will be shortened so less eccentric hamstring activity at the end of swing. When walking downhill the quads, tibialis anterior and hip abductor mm will perform a greater eccentric contraction to control downward momentum of the whole body since each step is slightly lower than the previous step. We hope that helps to answer your question a little. Thank you for watching our videos and for your question.
Благодарю! Хоть я и не понял

could you add labels to the muscles - it makes it easier to retain the information. But otherwise a fantastic video!
Thank you for the helpful suggestion and glad you found it informative.
Hi, I have a problem walking properly because of a peroneal tendon injury I had when I was about 8 years old and I have had it for over 20 years now. Its like all my muscles in the front of my lower leg get really fatigued and then I feel my peroneal tendon sometimes and I keep changing my walking because im either trying to protect my peroneal tendon or the muscles in my lower leg are to fatigued and I cant walk normally. So even in the relaxed position, everything is out of whack and feels out of place and im trying to find someone that can help me.
Ive tried so much physio and it doesnt work and tried many other different things with no results. Its like I can strengthen the already strong muscles but the ones that need to work won't, no matter how many exercises or massages or different things I try.
Do you have any suggestions by any chance?
We are sorry to hear about your health challenges. Our channel is designed to provide information for physiotherapists in training, not for specific treatment recommendations. As a general principle in physical therapy though, when muscles are incapable of performing normally is when you might want to consider the use of external bracing/orthotics or to look at other areas in the lower extremity to make sure there isn't something else contributing to abnormal biomechanics in the ankle and foot. Best of luck.
@@physicaltherapyeducationso4585 i thought you were a qualified physio and might have come across these symptoms before and could help me a little 😥
