1. Muscles involved in the Anterior Oblique subsystem (AOS) Internal Oblique and adductor complex, external oblique and hip external rotators 2. Function of anterior oblique subsystem provides transverse plane stabilization and force transmission necessary for functional activities involving the trunk and extremities Provides rotation of the pelvis *provides dynamic stabilization of lumbo-pelvic-hip complex 3. Muscles involved in the lateral subsystem (LS) Gluteus medius, tensor fascia latae, adducor complex and quadratus lumborum 4. Function of lateral subsystem (LS) frontal plan stability and pelvo-femoral stability, 5. Dysfunction in the Lateral subsystem (LS) is evident by increased pronation of the knee, hip, or feet during walking, squats, lunges or climbing chairs 6. Unwanted frontal plane movement is characterized by Decreased strength and neuromuscular control in the lateral subsystem (LS) 7. The anterior subsystem (AOS) functions in the in which plane transverse 8.
