Joint moments, moment arms and forces calculated for the muscles that extend the MCP joint in the model. Peak net extensor moment coincided with the peaks in the moment arms of the common and lateral digital extensor muscles (upper panel). Muscle moment arms dominated the variation in joint moment over the simulated range of joint movement and for the joint angles associated with the stance phase of gait (horizontal shaded bar).
