Summary Introduction

To review:

While standing upright, the erector spinae muscle and transversospinal muscle always remain in a state of continual contraction.

Introduction:

The erector spindle is the largest muscle of the vertebral column; it forms a prominent bulge around the vertebral column. The transversospinalis muscle group is so named because it runs from the transverse process of the spinous processes of the vertebrae.
