Basic Muscles Explanation
The gluteus maximus, commonly known as glutes, is the muscle on which we sit, the most powerful one involved in the beginning phase of the hip elevation movement or the spine elevation. Without a doubt, the erector spinalis participates in the total extension of the hip and spine. The erector spinalis is formed by a group of large muscles located alongside the spine.

 

Muscles & Joint Actions
The extension movement of the hip makes the trunk, pelvis and superior part of the body elevate and align while hips go forward to reach an erect  position. The major glute and the spinalis erector make these movements happen.


 

Sport Uses
Hip and spine extension are important in powerlifting and weightlifting. The bodybuilders utilize it to develope and define glutes and lower back.  The hip extension is crucial in jumping and racing. This action is used in sports that require jumping up, like the high jump, volleyball and basketball.
