A series of exercises and questions focused on understanding the anatomy and movement of the pelvis, particularly the opposing muscle groups that control its motion. It explores the actions of various muscles, including the hip flexors, extensors, abductors, adductors, and rotators, as well as the muscles of the trunk and back. The exercises are designed to enhance comprehension of how these muscles work together to create movement and stability in the pelvis.

What |muscles |oppose |the |low |back |muscles?(trunk- |anteriorposterior) |- |correct |answer |✔anterior |abdominal |muscles What |muslces |opposed |the |lateral |trunk |muscles? |(trunk-lateral) |- |correct |answer |✔Lateral |trunk |muscles |oppose |each |other
What |muscles |work |to |cause |anterior |pelvic |tilt? |- |correct |answer |✔Low |back |muscles |act |with |the |hip |flexors |(especially |the |psoas) |with |its |direct |pull |from |the |lumbar |spine |to |the |femur |to |tilt |the |pelvis |down |and |forward.
