Iliopsoas
This muscle connects the lower back to the leg through the pelvis. It needs to be stretched or can weaken from under use by people who spend too much time in a sitting position.it is susceptible to pathological shortening or contracture, especially in older people with a sedentary lifestyle, and requires regular stretching to maintain normal length. Such shortening can lead to increased anterior pelvic tilt and lumbar lordosis (unilateral shortening), and limitation of hip extension (bilateral weakness).[2]
