| I am positive my life would be better if today was not the first time in my life I heard about my Quadratus Lumborum (QL). |
|
 |
The QL (left) is the posterior muscle of the abdominal wall. It originates at the medial part of the Iliac Crest (right) and iliolumbar ligament and inserts onto the lowest rib through the 4th lumbar vertebrae. |
 |
| I also can't believe I've never heard about my Erector Spinae. | |
 |
