What is the coronal plane?

Coronal plane is a plane that divides the body vertically into front and back or front and rear. Also known as the front plane, it is used in anatomy to describe movements that are performed on both sides of the body. In other words, movements that occur more side-side than in front, as when lifting the arms laterally to the height of the shoulders, occur in the coronal plane. It can also be used as an anatomical legacy that illustrates where the part of the body is located relatively to another. Other movement planes include sagittal and transverse planes. Movement in the sagittal plane - also the vertical plane, but the one that divides the body into the left and right parts - occurs forward backwards, as well as inserting or carrying out biceps curls. On the other hand, the transverse plane is a horizontal plane that intersects the body on the superior and upper or upper and lower parts. Movement in the transverse plane is circular and occurs around the vertical axis, as in the rotation of the trunk around the spine or joining the arms into the chest.

Although a large part of human movement appears in the sagittal level, as in walking, cycling or lifting objects in front of the body, the movement of the coronal plane is quite common in everyday life. Bending to the side to lift the briefcase and stretch through the car door from the inside, are examples of movement in this plane. Many body muscles specialize in the movements of coronal planes and are usually found on the sides of the body. However, they are, but are not limited to deltooids found on the upper part of the shoulders and which raise the arms of the party; Quadratus lumborum, which is located on both sides of the fuselage and which allows side bending or side bending of the trunk; and gluteus medius, which is found on both sides of the hip and helps in the kidnapping of the hip or lifting the leg to the side.

Many cardiovascular and strength training programs neglect coronal training. Walking, jogging, cycling and climbingfrom the forward. Similarly, commonly trained muscles in the weight room, chest, biceps, abdominal and quadruple are, which largely control the movement of the sagittal plane. The integration of exercises such as side attacks, side walking with resistance belt, side boards and lateral shoulder lifting ensures that these muscles receive straight treatment and that the body does not suffer from muscle imbalances.
