The quadriceps, a group of four muscles located at the front of the thigh, primarily function to extend the knee, facilitating movements such as walking, running, and jumping. Additionally, they play a role in stabilizing the knee joint and supporting activities that involve squatting or climbing. Overall, the quadriceps are essential for lower body strength and mobility.
