The biceps femoris is a muscle in the posterior compartment of the thigh. The short head of the biceps femoris originates from the lateral lip of the linea aspera. The head of the fibula is the insertion site for the biceps femoris tendon. The ischial tuberosity is the origin of the long head of the biceps femoris (not the short head). The pubic tubercle is not related to the origin of the biceps femoris.
