Which set of muscles is incorrectly paired with its syndrome?

  1. Facilitated muscles in upper crossed syndrome: Suboccipitals

  2. Weak muscles in lower crossed syndrome: Gluteus maximus

  3. Facilitated muscles in lower crossed syndrome: Deep cervical spine flexors

  4. Weak muscles in upper crossed syndrome: Serratus anterior

The correct answer is: Facilitated muscles in lower crossed syndrome: Deep cervical spine flexors

The other options are incorrect because they do not match the characteristics of the given syndromes. Upper crossed syndrome is characterized by tight, facilitated muscles in the chest, upper back, and neck, which makes option A correct. Lower crossed syndrome is characterized by weak and lengthened muscles in the hips, lower back, and thighs, making option B correct. Additionally, option D is incorrect because the serratus anterior is actually a facilitated muscle in upper crossed syndrome.
