Changes

The pelvic girdle musculature ('''sublumbar muscle''') is made up of a number of distinct muscle groups. These arise from the lumbar vertebrae and insert on the pelvis or [[Bones and Cartilages - Horse Anatomy#Femur|femur]]. These muscles function in dorsiflexion and ventriflexion of the spine.  They also provide stabilisation to the vertebral column and pelvis.
