Where can you find the adductor longus
Expert Solution
Step 1
The leg has three sets of powerful muscles: the muscles of the hamstring at the back of the thigh, the muscles of the quadriceps at the front and the muscles of the adductor at the bottom. The hamstrings and quadriceps work together to straighten (extend) and stretch (flex the knee). The legs are held together by the adductor muscles.
