Editing Push-up (section)

=== Stabilizers: back body ===
The push-up depends on stabilizer muscles as the body is pushed and lowered. The [[Erector spinae muscles|erector spinae]] is the main stabilizer muscle in the back. Made up of three muscles including the spinal, longissimus, and iliocostalis. The spinal runs adjacent to the spine, the longissimus runs adjacent to the spinal and the iliocostalis runs adjacent to the longissimus and over the ribs. Two muscles called the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus stabilize the upper leg. The medius and minimus sit under the largest butt muscle, the gluteus maximus.
