Females are more likely to land with a valgus knee, adducted hip, weak gluteus medius, and overbalanced adductors, indicating poorer neuromuscular control.

“if you look at sort of the neuromuscular control Factor specifically we have patients will you know you jump off uh this is pre-injury just so we evaluate why are they greater risk you have them jump off a box and see how they land and in general at that age uh females are more likely to land with a valgus knee with an aded ducted hip right the leg goes in that is you have weak gluteus medius overtight over imbalance with the adductors so they land with their knees in valgus often times with a very straight extended leg slightly flexed and a little bit pronated”
