    Study Notes

    Knee Degrees of Motion

    • Knee flexion occurs up to 135 degrees, facilitated by the hamstrings, with a soft end feel.
    • Knee extension occurs up to 0 degrees, facilitated by the quadriceps, with a firm end feel.

    Ankle Degrees of Motion

    • Ankle dorsiflexion occurs up to 20 degrees.
    • Ankle plantarflexion occurs up to 50 degrees.
    • Tarsal joint inversion occurs up to 35 degrees.
    • Subtalar joint inversion occurs up to 5 degrees.
    • Tarsal joint eversion occurs up to 20 degrees.
    • Subtalar joint eversion occurs up to 5 degrees.

    Hip Degrees of Motion

    • Hip flexion occurs up to 120 degrees, facilitated by the iliopsoas muscle (iliacus), with a soft end feel.
    • Hip extension occurs up to 20 degrees, facilitated by the gluteus maximus.
    • Hip abduction occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the gluteus medius.
    • Hip adduction occurs up to 20 degrees, facilitated by the adductor magnus.
    • Seated internal rotation occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the tensor fasciae latae (TFL).
    • Prone internal rotation occurs up to 45 degrees.
    • Seated external rotation occurs up to 45 degrees, facilitated by the piriformis.
    • Prone external rotation occurs up to 45 degrees.
