Book X: Legs |
Book X presents the legs not only in terms of bones, musculature, nerves, and movement, but also the legs’ interdependent relationship with other regions of the body, including the back, diaphragm, and pelvis. The effects of this interrelationship are also examined, such as the way in which chronic muscle tension and pelvic tilt can affect the lumbar curve and vice versa (see Garlick).
