2. Iliotibial tract - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliotibial_tract

   When a person is leaning forwards with a slightly flexed knee, the tract is the knee's main support against gravity. Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS or ITBFS, for iliotibial band friction syndrome) is a common thigh injury generally associated with running. It can also be caused by cycling or hiking. The onset of iliotibial band syndrome occurs ...

3. Kip-up - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kip-up

   The rubber band is a breakdancing move which consists of repeated kip-ups which do not go all the way to standing position (the knees never return to complete extension). A rubber band is more like a back handspring, except it requires a movement of slower velocity when lowering the thoracic and cervical spine to the ground to kip back up.

4. Iliotibial band syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliotibial_band_syndrome

   Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is the second most common knee injury, and is caused by inflammation located on the lateral aspect of the knee due to friction between the iliotibial band and the lateral epicondyle of the femur. [2] Pain is felt most commonly on the lateral aspect of the knee and is most intensive at 30 degrees of knee flexion. [2]

5. Joint locking (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_locking_(medicine)

   Complaints of locking sensation in the knee joint can be divided into true locking and pseudo locking. True locking happens when the intra-articular structure (e.g. ligaments) [1] is damaged, or a loose body is present inside the joint, or there is a meniscal tear. The knee can be unlocked by rotating the leg and full movement can be restored.

6. Pivot-shift test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot-shift_test

   While maintaining internal rotation, a valgus force is applied to the knee while it is slowly flexed. If the tibia's position on the femur reduces as the knee is flexed in the range of 30 to 40 degrees or if there is an anterior subluxation felt during extension the test is positive for instability. Pivot-shift is not straightforward to perform.

7. Posterolateral corner injuries - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterolateral_Corner_Injuries

   A clunk will be felt around 30° of knee flexion if the subluxed or dislocated joint has reduced. This occurs as the iliotibial band changes from a knee flexor to extensor around 30°. Again, the affected knee should be compared the normal side to rule out a false positive test. [5] [22] [26]
