Thanks for the advice. I took out the driver's seat from my car so I can sit on the floor. Now I can't see the road. Please help

[@Uprighthealth]

Hold yourself up with the seat belt or overhead handle in a one-arm pull-up with your left arm. Use your right to steer. If you're in the UK or Japan, switch the arms.

[@Uprighthealth]

And minimize commute times.

The floor is my friend. Shoes are chairs not so much. Love your work! 🥰

[@drchancer1098]

I've been doing this for about 2 years now.....I have no chairs in the house .... the difference it's made to me is tremendous! Eating and working on the floor is great as long as the floor is clean!

I began sitting while wfh during the pandemic as I was also beginning to get more seriously i to yoga. Sitting on the floor is a game changer

[@theamishpotato]

Barefoot/minimalist shoes have have made it possible for me to work without foot pain from anterior pelvic tilt. That elevated cushion in normal shoes caused me 14 years of pain.

[@LoStone1981]

This totally worked! Thank you! I started to work on my laptop on the floor (instead of just a standing desk) and after two days, my back is 99% healed! The achy feeling is almost completely gone. Yay for reactivated abs. THANK YOU!!!

[@plummerofficial]

Did you find that the standing desk was actually making your back issues worse?

Wait so sitting in a squat is good for my pelvic?! It's always been the position my body wants to be in while sitting but I never do it because I feared it would ruin my posture more.

[@bluebennu3664]

Trust your body and your intuition!

[@SlimeBMG]

Did yours get better ?

[@travislynn7024]

The squat sit stretch has worked. I will definitely add to my weekly routine. When i first tried i always lost balance and fell. Now i can with heel on ground for increased amount of time of 30 seconds per repetition. It even temporarily corrects my pelvic anterior tilt but then it slowly comes back. I felt the stretch on my feet and ankles. Thank you I have had this post anterior tilt ever since i was a child who use to skateboard 🛹 a lot. Hopefully with these life style changes and more core activation i can get rid of post anterior tilt forever. Thanks 🙏

[@wes3428]

After a few years of trying to solve my lower back pain by stretches and exercise nothing really helped. I finally realised that 10 minutes a day is a drop in the ocean compared to a lifetime of sitting in a chair for work. My conclusion was to avoid sitting where possible. Now I stand at work full time and got rid of the chair, my back has been so much better.

[@DM-uz1ym]

When I saw my lumbar spine on MRI I realised I had APL and my discs were under pressure towards the spinal cord. Also explained how my expensive mattress made my back worse! All makes sense, a really nice set of tips, I think I need these lifestyle changes!

[@ChessieChess]

How did the mattress make your back worse? I have a really good one but I wake up with hip pain but that’s prob cuz I sleep on my side. I’m almost positive my hip pain is from my lower back pain which is from poor posture and weak core/glutes. Thank you

[@DM-uz1ym]

Hi, I think just too much sag of my buttocks when on my back and spine when Im on my side. I’m using little pillows beneath spine when on side and under legs when on back. Hope you can find a solution!

[@ChessieChess]

@@DM-uz1ym thank you! I sleep with a pillow between my legs when on side, but I think I need another one under my torso to keep my hip lifted. So much fun getting older!

Unfortunately, my lower back starts hurting after a few minutes working/eating/sitting on the floor. After a little bit in become unbearable. What can I do? I agree with a lot of things you recommend and I totally makes sense, but it's quite challenging for me if not impossible. Thanks.

[@momc1134]

been working on foot mobility for over five years now thanks to my discovery of Katy Bowman's Nutritious Movement and Correct Toes. Have been wearing zero drop and human foot shaped shoes all that time as well. I have moved out of a seat mostly and sit on the floor a great deal of the time that I am sitting. I have been doing yoga off and on for about 10 years as well but still have muscle imbalances in my hips probably just like everyone else. I am so glad I found your channel a couple of months ago. Matt, Josh, Vincent and Trevor explain things so well. I also check out Shane on Got Rom.... I am doing self massage, stretching and strengthening on an almost daily basis now and things are getting better...I moved a couple of years ago and have not found a good yoga instructor. My last one was the absolute best...excellent in so many ways..I am having trouble getting back into a regular yoga practice without the structured class. It is my opinion that instructors like you, massage therapists and yoga instructors should be paid as part of health care. Right now our health care system is sick care and for it to be true health care people should be able to consult you all and have the fees covered by universal health care.

[@Strengthside]

Greatly inspired by Katy Bowman! Thanks for all the kind feedback.

[@momc1134]

@@Strengthside I forgot to mention that I found the Strength Side You tube as well a week or two ago and find it very helpful as well.

My body does feel like it's doing more work in a grounded seating position. I trust this tip. I wonder if it will still work on a more comfortable or malleable surface like a bed.

[@officerrachetjaw2879]

Love this content . Great points

[@ashleyfernandes6448]

Awesome video bro! 🙏🏽

[@bu_beehappy]

haha...the constant changing seating positions is the reason that I got a memory foam cushion for the office. It allows me to sit crossed legged, normal 90-degree, etc. Because I can't sit on the floor in my office while I sit right next to my boss. Would be a little weird. 🤣 But being able to do that and also standup (thanks to a raisable desk) made a big difference.

This is so helpful - thank you! I'm taking your online course now.

[@donnawoodward3163]

Thank you for this info, I've been looking into minimalist footwear and will increase my floor sitting and positions as you said. Very helpful info. At some point during this last year (that was super stressful) I became "locked in" to always being in anterior pelvic tilt, ugh. Do hip flexor stretches make a.p.t. worse? I was doing them morning and night for the last couple of years along with my other stretches and exercises. The tightness in my hips left but maybe it's because I went into a.t.p.?

[@jazbarry13]

I have a question on going barefoot - what if you have flat feet? I have flat feet and have my whole life. Because my feet are flat and pronated inwards, my hips have a tendency to go in and can strain my hips and back further. I have $500 custom orthothotics from my podiatrist. I'd like to think those are doing something for me. Hopefully... 😬

[@zKaoTiiKz19]

When body weight squatting is it bad to have your lumber round at the bottom?

Thanks! :) never using a chair again at home

[@AXLEGREASEframeset]

Step 1: be like Slav. On a more serious note everyone looks at me like I'm crazy because I don't wear marshmallows on my feet like they do. I wear simple shoes with a thin foam layer.

[@Uprighthealth]

Simple, minimalist shoes definitely the way to go!

[@kioshekat7931]

I've had atp for as long as I can remember in my life. I know now as an adult it's a large combination of things that just domino. Mainly it's that I have twisted femurs which causes tilted in feet and then atp and slouching. Also this video explains why I never like sitting in chairs "normally" im hoping I can fix my atp with my twisted femurs

[@celgaerlan1231]

Thank you so much !

[@bbear9679]

What happens if you sit on a ball??

[@MsMarch7]

Yeah?

[@birgiertufekci4249]

Sitting on a ball is better than sitting on a chair since while you are on the ball, your body will be more alerted to balance itself which will trigger more muscles.

[@septemberswisper]

Is anterior pelvic tilt anyway connected to having plantar fascitis?

[@MyChilepepper]

Haha sitting on the throne texting since 3am before chopper interview on the way to golfing.

[@carlosalarcon2737]

Thanks...I think being moving it's important when you are working..what about being sit in a big rubber ball used by PTs( dunno the technical name), I suppose this could change your position constantly.

[@chrisgfteam6932]

Would a squat not be shortening my hip flexors? I train BJJ and suffer with APT and the worst is after training I sit against the wall like this and when I stand my lower back is sore due to right hip flexors.

[@DanielleDeutschTV]

I think sitting causes posterior pelvic tilt more than anteriorly... My issue is too much posterior pelvic tilt and I'm actually trying to unlock the anterior pelvic tilt so I can sit upright with the legs extended in front without the pelvis rolling backwards.

This is bad advice. My shoulders got fd up when I sat on the floor to do work at the beginning of the pandemic. Working on my laptop for 3+ hrs straight with it not at eye level and arms at 90°? C'mon bro... What helped me was sitting back so my upper back/shoulders were supported, while making sure I was holding my torso straight with my front core muscles. Adding a short an workout 2x a week helped. This put a lot less stress on my hips and made the problem almost dissapear. I suspect I'll have a 4 pack soon too.
