[1] The rectus femoris is the most superficial of the quadriceps muscles alongside the vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius, and vastus medialis. The rectus femoris is a long, fleshy muscle located in the anterior compartment of the thigh. Muskelgruppen består av: M.Rectus Femoris, M.Vastus Lateralis, M.Vastus Medialis och M.Vastus Intermedialis Ursprung: höftben (Coxa) för M. Rectus Femoris, övriga muskler utgår från lårbenet (Femur) Fäste: skenben (Tibia) Funktion: böjer i höften (flexion i höftled), sträcker på benet (extension i knäled) Action: Extends the legs and stabilizes the patella. Quadriceps femoris is a group of muscles located in the anterior compartment of the thigh (also known as the extensor compartment of the thigh). Author information: (1)Division of Sport and Recreation, University of Northumbria at Newcastle, Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Alternate muscle activity patterns among synergists of the quadriceps femoris including the vastus intermedius during low-level sustained contraction in men. Three quadriceps muscles were studied: VL, vastus medialis (VM), and rectus femoris (RF). „Qua“ steht für Vier), die nebeneinander, sowie übereinander angeordnet sind. Quadriceps (egentligen musculus quadriceps femoris) eller lårmuskeln, är en fyrhövdad muskel i lårets framsida. The aims of the present study were to examine (1) endurance time and (2) activation pattern of vastus lateralis (VL), vastus medialis (VM) and rectus femoris (RF) muscles during fatiguing isometric knee extensions performed with different EMG biofeedbacks. See vastus medialis weakness [4]. Aufbau: Der Quadriceps besteht, wie der Name es verrät, aus vier Muskelköpfen (lat. Research Center of Health, Physical Fitness and Sports, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan. It also acts as a synergist of hip flexion and has increased activity with abduction and external rotation of the hip joint. Der Musculus Quadriceps femoris ist, wie es der Name bereits erahnen lässt, ein Muskel, der sich aus vier anderen Muskeln zusammen setzt.. Der physiologische Querschnitt weist über 180 cm 2 auf und ist ca.

M. Quadriceps Femoris / Främre/fyrhövdade lårmuskeln. Er wird unterteilt in vier selbständig entspringende Muskeln. E-mail address: akima@nagoya‐u.jp. The rectus femoris is fusiform in shape with superficial fibers that are bipenniform and deep fibers that run straight (rectus) to the deep aponeurosis. Synergist: Rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, and vastus intermedius. Origin: Straight head: from the anterior inferior iliac spine Reflected head: on a curved line along the upper part of the acetabulum at the ilium Insertion: The quadriceps tendon along with the three vasti muscles, enveloping the patella then by the patellar ligament into the tibial tuberosity.

Quadriceps (egentligen musculus quadriceps femoris) eller lårmuskeln, är en fyrhövdad muskel i lårets framsida.

The biarticulate rectus femoris [1 ] enters active insufficiency through the completion of knee extension when the hips are more flexed (other heads of the quadriceps [2, 3, 4 ] become more active) or through the completion of hip flexion when the knees are more extended (other hip flexors become more active).
