At the same time, the gastrocnemius also flexes the knee joint together with the hamstring muscle

.

The medial collateral ligament (MCL) helps maintain the medial stability of the knee, while the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) helps maintain the lateral stability of the knee

.

Therefore, injuries can be prevented by exercising the strength of these muscles (such as quadriceps, hamstring and gastrocnemius)

.

Cartilage the ends of the tibia and femur are covered with tough cartilage, called the meniscus, which acts as a buffer

.

In addition to the quadriceps and hamstrings, there are some other important muscles around the knee joint, which are responsible for completing various knee joint movements and maintaining joint stability

.

The location of the hamstring attachment points helps to limit excessive forward movement of the tibia relative to the femur

.

The main movement of knee joint is completed by the joint formed by tibia and femur, which is also called tibiofemoral joint

.

Let’s learn about the structure of the lower knee

.

The muscles of the knee joint can not only produce joint activity, but also maintain the stability of the joint

.

The iliotibial tract is located on the lateral side of the knee

.

The muscles of knee joint can maintain joint stability and help limit abnormal bone movement

.

Pay attention to Jilin running group wechat, enjoy a healthy and beautiful life, run more or less, there will be injuries

.

The meniscus also helps maintain the stability of the knee

.

The above content is from the people’s Posts and Telecommunications Publishing House’s introduction and publication of “sports protection guide”

.

Some even want to know the structural characteristics of the knee after repeated injuries

.

The main muscles of the knee include the quadriceps and hamstrings

.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) limits the tibia to move forward excessively, while posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) prevents the tibia to move backward excessively

.

We are neutral about the views in this article, and only share them with running friends for reference and exchange

.

The main function of the gastrocnemius at the back of the knee joint is to straighten the foot (plantar flexion)

.

Iliotibial tract is a tough connective tissue

.

How to prevent knee injury can be seen from the above analysis

.

Jilin running group is paying close attention to Jilin running group’s wechat all the way and enjoying a healthy and beautiful life

.

The bones that make up the knee joint include femur, tibia and patella

.

This muscle originates from the groin and its main function is to adduct the femur

.

“If you like it, don’t forget to read it.

.

In short, the knee joint is composed of three bones, two main muscles, four main ligaments and cartilage, which jointly maintain joint stability

.

Quadriceps femoris extension of knee joint is mainly completed by quadriceps femoris, which is composed of medial femoris, lateral femoris, intermediate femoris and rectus femoris

.

In fact, understanding the structure of the knee joint helps to determine the position and type of injury, so that you can better deal with the injury

.

The gracilis muscle is located on the medial side of the knee

.

Hamstring knee flexion is mainly the result of hamstring contraction

.

When it comes to where it is most likely to be injured, the knee joint is naturally the first part most people think of

.

Hamstring is the general name of biceps femoris, hemimembranous and semitendinosus

.

There are four main ligaments in the knee joint

.

However, many runners do not know much about the knee before they are injured, so that they do not pay enough attention to it after they are injured

.

Without the meniscus, the tibia and femur rub against each other, causing rapid bone wear

.

The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments pass through the middle of the knee joint and cross each other, so “cross” means “cross”

.
