The tensor fascia latae (TFL) is a hip flexor, abductor, and internal rotator. It connects the hip to the knee via the IT band. The TFL is also part of the Lateral Subsystem along with the other hip abductors, hip adductors, and opposite QL. NKT often finds the TFL overworking and the opposite TFL underworking, the TFL overworking and the ipsilateral glute max underworking, and the adductors overworking and the TFL underworking. This article details the role of the hip abductors in maintaining p

The tensor fasciae latae (TFL) is a small but powerful muscle located on the lateral side of the hip. Anatomically, it originates from the iliac crest, specifically just posterior to the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS), and travels downward to merge with the iliotibial (IT) band, which runs along the lateral thigh before attaching to the tibia just below the knee.
