ROM
100

this posterior muscle is responsible for great toe flexion

what is flexor hallucis longus

100

this ligament runs posteriorly

what is the posterior talofibular ligament

100

this foot joint has the primary role of stability in the midfoot and has little movement. 

what is the tarsometatarsal 

100

this is the standard position for MMT for plantar flexion in grades 3-5 

standing on the foot to be tested


100
You should use this position when measuring range of motion in the foot and ankle

what is short sitting

200

this anterior muscle extends the lateral 4 toes

extensor digitorum longus

200

the middle tibiofibular ligament forms this kind of joint

what is a syndesmosis joint
200

this joint only produces motion in the frontal plane

what is the subtalar

200

this thick connective tissue runs from the calcaneal tuberosity to the heads of the metatarsal bones

what is the plantar fascia or plantar aponeurosis 

200

This is a triplanar motion that combines eversion, dorsi flexion and abduction

what is pronation

300

this is a lateral muscle that originates on the lateral distal fibula and inserts on the base of the 5th metatarsal. 

what is the peroneus brevis 

300

these superficial and deep ligaments run medially 

what are the deltoid ligaments 

300

This hinge joint is responsible for movements only in the sagittal plane.

What is Talotibial?

DF & PF

300

these 3 arches are found in the foot

medial longitudinal, lateral longitudinal and transverse arch

300

this is the normal ROM for eversion

what is 15'

400

this muscle originates on the lateral tibia and interosseous membrane

what is the tibialis anterior

400

this ligament runs vertically on the lateral side

400

this joint is a condyloid joint in the foot

what is the MTP (metatarsophalangeal)

400

what is the soleus

500

this ligament runs laterally to anteriorly

anterior talofibular ligament

500

This ball-and-socket joint is triplanar and produces the motions of sup/pronate and inv/ever. 

what is the talonavicular?

500

standing on the outside of your feet is also called
