Muscles of the back - layers

Extrinsic - ventral rami of spinal nerves (except for trapezius):


Superficial layer - contains muscles that move the upper extremity


Intermediate layer - contains muscles of respiration




Intrinsic - dorsal rami of spinal nerves:


Deep layer - contains the true back muscles that stabilize of move the axial skeleton
