\nThe tibialis anterior muscle is a major anterior leg muscle whose main action is dorsiflexion and inversion of the foot (i.e., “toes to nose” and turning foot inward.)<\/p>\n
The proximal attachment (origin) of the muscle is the tibia. The distal attachment (insertion) of the muscle is the medial cuneiform bone of the ankle and also the first metatarsal.<\/p>\n
The innervation of the muscle is the deep peroneal branch of the fibular nerve.
