the ischial tuberosity to the superomedial tibia
flexes the knee extends the thigh medially rotate knee when flexed ** from a more proximal position the semitentinosus mm is in the mmiddle of the biceps femoris and the semimembranosus, the semitentinosus then courses medially to insert on the top medial part of the tibia |
