Lateral flexion of the trunk involves moving the shoulders left or right towards the hips, therefore it is exercised in the frontal or coronal plane of motion.
External obliques are primarily considered to be in the frontal plane of motion. They are responsible for lateral flexion and rotation of the trunk.
The movement of the trunk in the frontal plane is called lateral flexion. This involves bending the trunk sideways to the left or right at the waist. It occurs in the frontal plane, which divides the body into front and back halves.

Trunk flexion occurs in the sagittal plane of body motion. This movement involves bending the torso forward, bringing the chest toward the thighs. It primarily involves the muscles of the back and abdomen.

transverse plane
Trunk rotation occurs in the transverse plane of motion, where the body rotates around its vertical axis. This movement allows the trunk to twist to the left or right.
Trunk bending refers to the movement of the torso forward, backward, or sideways. It involves flexion, extension, or lateral flexion of the spine to bring the upper body closer to the lower body or to move it away from the midline. Trunk bending exercises are common in fitness routines to improve core strength and flexibility.
