The posterior chain is a helluva muscle group and is given a lot of training precedent in our strength training app, Peak Strength. Including the upper body, the entirety of the musculature plays a pivotal role in all things pulling, from the traps to the lats, through the spinal erectors into the glutes, cascading down through the hamstrings into the calves. The posterior chain is quite the collection of muscles needed to coordinate as a highly functional team to drive athletic performance.
