The Putty Paw stretch targets which muscle?

• A. Erector Spinae
• B. Rhomboids
• C. Trapezius
• D. Latissimus Dorsi

Answer: (A)

The Putty Paw stretch targets the erector spinae—the muscles that run along the length of the spine and help you extend and stabilize the back. This stretch is designed to lengthen those spinal-extensor muscles, improving posture and relieving tension in the posterior chain. The other muscles listed have different jobs: rhomboids mainly move and stabilize the shoulder blades, trapezius coordinates neck and shoulder movements, and latissimus dorsi handles shoulder and arm actions. Since this stretch is about lengthening the muscles along the spine rather than those shoulder or arm muscles, the erector spinae is the best fit.
