What Occurs at the LL at 'Heel Lift'?
[Not major event]
Produced by:

- [incr Rigid lever position]
- thus stabilising the Ffoot joints to deal with incr vertical and sheer forces,

- LA - Maximally Pronated (peroneals shift Force Lat to Med0
- OA - Starts Supination (to increase arch stability + height,
6. Rays
- 1 Ray Pf to allow 90 deg Df ay MPJ,
- Toes Df post HL allow PFascia tightening (Ff to Rf - Windlass Mech)

4. STJ Pronates
- 1st Half : allow ground clearance, Supinates
- 2nd Half : to prepare for HS,
5. MTJ:
- LA Supinates to neutral,
- OA Pronates to pronated position,
6. Rays
- 1 Ray Df [EHL + Tib Ant]
- Df of AJ + Smooth mm loading
