Question

When does max hip abduction occur?

A) Initial Contact
B) Mid Stance
C) Terminal Stance
D) Pre-Swing

Answer 1

Max hip abduction occurs at the equilibrium position when the hip joint is at its extreme positions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Max hip abduction occurs at the equilibrium position when the hip joint is at its extreme positions. This is the point of maximum outward movement of the hip away from the body's midline. It is neither at the initial contact nor at the mid stance, and it is not in the pre-swing phase.
