2. THE LOWERLIMB
The lower limb consists of four major parts: a girdle
formed by the hip bones, the thigh, the leg, and the
foot. It is specialized for the support of weight,
adaptation to gravity, and locomotion. In descriptions
of the lower limb, it is customary to include regions that
are transitional between the limb and the trunk,
especially the gluteal and inguinal regions.

We might take the lower extremities for granted, but they are
two well-oiled machines comprised of several complex
anatomical parts working together in perfect harmony. Without
them, you wouldn’t be able to walk to your favourite (or not so
favourite) anatomy class, jump, run, stand, crouch, and so on.
Therefore, try to keep them in top physical condition by giving
them plenty of exercise.
