Tendon and muscle connecting to lumbar and sacral area of vertebrae?
An x-ray of the lumbar sacral show air along each side of the spine and was told there was no connection between the ligaments/tendons and the spine. What effect can that have?
What muscles are improved by using a muscle vest regularly?
The pectoral and deltoid muscles are often helped by using a muscle vest although some users say that their lower lumbar back muscles are also helped by it.

Where is the adductor located?
If you are referring to the adductor muscles of the thigh, they are all located medially on the femur and include adductor magnus, adductor longus and adductor brevis. Each muscle originates on either the pubic body or part of the inferior pubic ramus and runs to part of the femoral linea aspera. All of these muscle adduct the thigh.

Tendon and muscle connecting to lumbar and sacral area of vertebrae?
An x-ray of the lumbar sacral show air along each side of the spine and was told there was no connection between the ligaments/tendons and the spine. What effect can that have?
How many cervical thoracic and lumbar vertebrae are there?
Absolutely! They have features unique to the region they are found in, relating to structure and therefore function. Typical cervical vertebrae (C3-C6) usually have bifid spinous processes which point slightly inferiorly. The spinous processes on lumbar vertebrae are oblong in shape and point directly posteriorly. The articular facets of cervical vertebrae face superior-inferiorly, whereas lumbar articular facets face medial-laterally. Cervical vertebrae have transverse foramen on right and left(containing the vertebral arteries), lumbar have none. They have mamillary processes on their superior articular processes. The bodies of lumbar vertebra are larger and thicker than cervical vertebrae, though they are oval/kidney shaped shaped in both regions. The transverse processes of lumbar vertebrae are much longer, for muscle attachment. Cervical vertebrae have anterior and posterior tubercles extending from their transverse processes. The pedicles of lumbar vertebrae are slightly longer and more defined than those of cervical vertebrae. I think that covers everything, let me know if you think of anything else!
Is the strongest of the hip flexor muscles?
The strongest Flexor of the hip (thigh) is illiopsoas muscle which is the merger of the illiacus and the psoas major muscle. The illiacus is on the medial side of the pelvic bone attaching to the femur and the psoas major muscle attaches from the lumbar vertebrae to the femur.
Is lumbar aponeurosis a muscle?
No
Slight loss of normal lumbar lordosis?
Slight loss of normal lumbar lordosis is a subjective evaluation by the radiologist of the alignment of the lumbar vertebrae which should form a forward facing curve on the lateral x-ray of the lumbar spine. It is a highly subjective evaluation and for the most part, when slight, can not be inferred to have any specific meaning. A normal lumbar spine may seem to have a slight loss of lordosis. Pain, muscle spasm, arthrosis and a host of other conditions may be associated with the finding.

Latissimus Dorsi
What muscle if weak would cause low back pain?
quadratus lumbar
What muscle is located on the sides of the vertebral column?
Erector spinae are the muscles that move the vertebral column.It is the largest muscle mass of the back, forming a prominent bulge on either side of the vertebral column.It is the chief extensor of the vertebral column. It is also important in controlling flexion, lateral flexion and rotation of the vertebral column and in maintaining the lumbar curve, because the main mass of the muslce is in the lumbar region.Consists of: iliocostalis, longissimus and spinalis.Erector spinae are the muscles that move the vertebral column.
Unilateral contraction of which muscle causes ipsilateral flexion of the lumbar vertebral column?
Quadratus Lumborum
