Adductor hallucis muscle

musculus adductor hallucis

It is traditionally said to adduct the great toe; it is probably more active in the push-off phase, when it pulls the four lateral metatarsals toward the great toe, fixes the transverse arch and resists the forces that would separate the heads of the metatarsals.
