Tensor Fasciae Latae
Is a small, superfiscial muscle located on the lateral
side of the upper thigh.
Iliotibial Tract
Is a superficial sheet of fascia with vertical fibers
that run along the lateral thigh.
Tensor Fasciae Latae and Iliotibial Tract
Tensor Fasciae Latae
Are you posterior and distal to the Anterior Iliac
Crest? If you ask your partner to rotate the hip
laterally, does the TFL contract? It should not.
Distal End of the Iliotibial Tract
Are the fibers you feel superficial and stringy
compared to the deeper, fleshier Vastus Lateralis
fibers? Do the fibers run vertically down the thigh
and converge into a thin, cable like tendon at the
Tibial Tubercle?
