The Tibial Tuberosity and the Quads

Your quads insert into a rather big obvious one that's called your tibial tuberosity. When the quads contract, they pull on the patella, which pulls on the tibia and swings it around like a bit of a pulley system play there. And so if we want to know where our quadsinsert and where they act on the lower leg, they actually act via that mechanism down onto the tibial tuberculosis. So we don't need to say too many things about some of the other landmarks around there just yet. We'll do the hamstrings in a second separate episode for this.
