015 Frontal Plane

  • Also referred to as the lateral or coronal plane.

  • This plane bisects the body laterally from side to side and divides the body into equal front and back halves. You may want to memorize that the frontal plane runs side to side. (It is easily confused with the sagittal plane which runs front to back)

  • Abduction and adduction, such as jumping jacks and lateral spinal flexion, are movements commonly performed in this plane.
