Back muscles, computer artwork. The three pairs of muscles on either side of the spine are the erector spinae. The innermost muscles are the spinalis muscles, which attach to the spinous processes of the vertebrae. Outside of these are the longissimus muscles. Outermost are the iliocostalis muscles. The erector spinae are the strongest back muscles. They maintain good posture and stabilise the torso. Between the shoulder blades is the serratus posterior superior muscle. Across the middle of the back is the serratus posterior inferior muscle, which attaches to the bottom four ribs (nine to twelve).
