@travxflex: Rectus Femoris Origin- Anterior inferior iliac spine, and Supraacetabular groove of ilium Insertion- Tibial Tuberosity, via tendon of quadriceps femoris muscle and patellar ligament. Action- extends leg at knee joint; flexes thigh at hip joint Innervation- Femoral nerve, (L2-L4) Arterial supply- deep femoral and lateral circumflex femoral arteries. The rectus Femoris muscle cannot be tested in isolation, therefore all four muscles of the quadriceps Femoris are tested simultaneously by extending the leg at the knee joint against resistance while lying in supine position with the hip flexed during which the rectus Femoris muscle can be palpated.
