Between 30-50% of the gait cycle, the hip flexor muscles are eccentrically acting as the hip continues to extend, until reaching maximal extension at approximately 10-15 degrees past neutral. [3] This max extension takes place right before toe off. The hip flexors then concentrically act to initiate hip flexion for swing phase. Overall ...
English: A chart showing the relationships between pi, tau, and radians with a circle. Shows the conversion between degrees and radians, along with the signs of the major trigonometric functions in each quadrant.

The angular displacement (symbol θ, ϑ, or φ) – also called angle of rotation, rotational displacement, or rotary displacement – of a physical body is the angle (in units of radians, degrees, turns, etc.) through which the body rotates (revolves or spins) around a centre or axis of rotation.
• Iliopsoas: The powerhouse of hip flexion, a combination of two muscles — the iliacus and psoas — which, together, connect your pelvis, lumbar spine (low back) and femur (upper leg bone).
Just make sure to maintain a flat back and thigh and keep your lowered knee bent at a 90-degree angle. Hold that stretch for 30 seconds to a minute. Photo credit: Trevor Raab
Physical exam should also involve assessing passive internal rotation of the hip during flexion, as range of motion is reduced in proportion to the size of a cam lesion. [10] Flexing the hip to 90 degrees, adducting, and internally rotating the hip, known as the FADDIR test, should also be performed. [10] It is positive when it causes pain.
Bryant's traction is a form of orthopedic traction.It is mainly used in young children who have fractures of the femur or congenital abnormalities of the hip. [1] Both the patient's limbs are suspended in the air vertically at a ninety degree angle from the hips and knees slightly flexed.
