Hip is the joint of waist and leg, and its skeleton is a pelvis composed of two hip bones and sacrum, with thick and wide gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus and relatively small piriformis.
The shape of the buttocks leans backward, with the iliac crest on the upper edge and the gluteal groove on the lower edge. When the human body is upright, the whole hip is square, and the hip pits on both sides are obvious, so it is necessary to coordinate all relevant parts when walking.
Extended data:
In the average body shape, only the width and hip breadth between two points of the greater trochanter are measured, and women are always slightly larger than men. The same height, the gender difference is extremely significant.
Female hip joint is wider, and the width from abdomen to hip increases more obviously, which constitutes the unique curvaceous beauty of women. The width between trochanters is larger than that of pelvis in both men and women, and fat accumulation under trochanter is a normal physiological phenomenon in women.
