Questions and Answers

What is the functional significance of excessive hip flexion during mid swing?

  • Minimizing friction requirements between the foot and the floor surface
  • Reducing the demand on the hip extensors
  • Assisting with foot clearance when ankle PF is excessive (correct)
  • Promoting ankle PF
  • Which underlying cause can lead to excessive hip flexion?

  • IT band contracture (correct)
  • Hamstring flexibility
  • Ankle DF (dorsiflexion)
  • Hip extensor strength
  • What postural errors can be introduced by excessive hip flexion in mid stance?

  • Backward tilt of the pelvis and increased knee extension
  • Forward trunk lean, lumbar spine lordosis, and a flexed knee with increased DF (correct)
  • Lumbar spine lordosis and a flexed knee with decreased DF
  • Sideways tilt of the pelvis and hip adduction
