Muscle Activity During the Gait Cycle

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!

Why don’t the hamstrings contract concentrically during the push off?

[jamessmith]

Not sure this is entirely accurate ( Hip Flexor with leg in full ext / swing phase ) but still very helpful. thank you!

[jallyciapearson]

Thanks again for the video, there a way to have the table?

[giuseppe]

great explanation... however i believe you should add hamstring in hip extension

How does the angle or slope change which muscles are being used more ?

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?

[zenaba]

could you add labels to the muscles - it makes it easier to retain the information. But otherwise a fantastic video!
