II. Anatomy: Groin
- Groin is centered around the pubic rami and pubi symphysis
- Forces generated with kicking, rotation or lateral movement
- Pubic tubercle bears a majority of the torque forces in the region
- Attaches hip adductors
- Attaches Lower abdominal Muscles
- Tendon and Ligament Insertions
- Superior
- Rectus Abdominis insertion (at superior pubic ramus, stabilizes abdominal wall)
- Medial
- Lateral
- Inguinal Ligament
- Inferior
- Adductor longus Muscle insertion (at pubis adjacent to Pubic Symphysis, stabilizes Pelvis)
- Superior
-

- Fusion of the ilium, Ischium and Pubis
- Weight is transferred from the upright spine via the Sacrum to the hip bones
- Bony Pelvis
- Left and Right Hip Bones (ilium, Ischium and Pubis) join at Symphysis Pubis anteriorly
- Sacrum joins each hip bone posteriorly
