Explained below...

Detailed Answer:
Hi again,
Thanks for writing back,


I have gone through the attached reports,
I will try to explain you in the best way possible:

A group of muscles acts together for maintaining the integrity of the spine and its proper balance and strength. They are functionally named as extensors, flexors and oblique muscles.

Extensors include the back muscles like erector spinae muscle and gluteal muscles which help to hold up the spine,

Flexors include abdominal muscles which enables forward bending and lifting up objects,

Obliques include external and internal oblique muscles, which help in rotating the spine and maintaining posture.

Of these, gluteal muscles which are located over the buttocks, they become active climbing up and down the stairs, or even while squatting, but the rest of the muscles remain inactive unless they are focused and specifically exercised.

I would suggest it better for you to discuss this with your physical trainer and do exercises which specifically focuses on the above said muscles.

I hope this helps,

Please feel free to discuss further,

Regards
