Someone using a short method refering to the calf muscles. Gastrocnemius muscle and Soleus muscle. I'm not sure if "gastrosoleus" is a proper name.
The answer would be false. The soleus muscle is superficial to the tibia NOT the gastrocnemius.
The soleus muscle is the big muscle at the back of the calf. This muscle is what supports the leg during walking, standing, and running.
gastrocnemius
The gastrocnemius is superficial to the soleus muscle in the lower leg.
The soleus.
soleus
Gastrocnemius
soleus
The main muscle used would be the tibialis anterior
Soleus and gastrocnemius
Tibia and fibula
The gastrocnemius, soleus and peroneus longus muscles insert at the heel (calcaneus) by way of the Achilles (calcaneal) tendon.
