“Respiration is perhaps the most important of all movement patterns. Insufficient activity of the abdominal muscles results in a loss of diaphragmatic support for the spinal column. This can negatively affect the stability of the lumbar spine during lifting or bending activities. One should be able to observe in a supine patient the belly moving out with inhalation and in with exhalation.”
