My left hip’s range of motion during flexion, with a flexed knee, was 116 degrees. However, with knee extended, my hip’s range of motion was only 113 degrees (range of motion was smaller). This means that my hamstring in my left leg is passively insufficient. In order for it to have been passively sufficient, my hip’s range of motion with knee extended would have needed to be 116 degrees as well. In the same way, my right hamstring is passively insufficient. With knee extended, my right hip’s range of motion was only 107 degrees, while with a flexed knee, it was 115 degrees.
Both my peer’s left and right hamstring are also passively insufficient. With knee extended, her right hip’s range of motion was only 83 degrees, while with a flexed knee, it was 110 degrees. With knee extended, her left hip’s range of motion was only 85 degrees, while with a flexed knee, it was 110 degrees. This indicates that both hamstrings are passively insufficient. …show more content…
However, with knee flexed, my hip’s range of motion was only 8 degrees (range of motion was smaller). This means that my rectus femoris in my left leg is passively insufficient. In order for it to be passively sufficient, my hip’s range of motion with knee flexed must have been 10 degrees. In the same way, my right leg’s rectus femoris is passively insufficient, with a measurement of 10 degrees when knee was relaxed, and a measurement of only 9 degrees when knee was flexed.
The rectus femoris in the right leg of my peer is also passively insufficient, with a measurement of 14 degrees when knee was relaxed, and a measurement of only 12 degrees when knee was flexed. However, the rectus femoris of her left leg is passively sufficient. This is because her left hip’s range of motion when both her knee was relaxed and when her knee was flexed was 15
