Anterior Pelvic Tilt, open up the front of the hips and go through your training habits

[@markt9438]

Usually the things that are the simplest are the ones that are most overlooked very good point I've tried it and it does make a difference immediately

[@TomMorrison]

So true! 🙌

[@hyaakanma7179]

This is so true. My anterior pelvic tilt started really giving me problems when I decided I wanted to walk 15k steps a day for weight loss. In about a week my knees were in so much pain I was afraid of losing the ability to walk altogether. Then I tried to just rotate my hip inward and really focus on using my glutes, it’s super difficult but it was such a relief for my knees and in time (will be quite a while) your spine will slowly fix itself and you will be able to walk right subconsciously.

[@MwnciFam]

Being mindful of this and SQUEEZING my glutes is what takes away any back pain during long walks. ❤

[@danielcarrasquillo9613]

I'm a medical massage therapist, and I have been including your work as homework for my clients with good success. How can I get more information on your techniques? Thank you for putting these out 👍

[@TomMorrison]

Amazing!! We have programmes available with everything I use in the easiest way to stay consistent, we’re very much on application, it’s great to know the stuff, it’s the implementation that’s the tricky bit! tommorrison.uk/shop

[@yvetteandjorgenlarsen9753]

You always make so much sense that it actually is funny! thank you

[@TomMorrison]

Thankyou!!!

[@baybears9507]

Wow I’ve been standing wrong my entire life… It makes perfect sense now that I should use my glutes more and not my lower back to stand

[@dzbura]

My lower back started hurting from watching this 😅 good content 👌🏻important stuff

[@G4mer_D4d]

When you in pain especially: a straight line seems crooked, a crooked line seems straight.

[@davidmaxwell5661]

Ive implemented every clip ive watched after a serious accident this is critical knowledge my friend.....Thanks

[@nigellegg6105]

Posterior tilt (bum/hips out , behind) Anterior tilt (bum/hips forward), both extremes can cause pain issues in lower back area, a neutral position is best, but daily life and poor posture can make achieving this difficult…try and remember to be posture aware day to day.

[@madamsloth]

I needed this 😂 just tried it and i could feel the discomfort of going back to my regular position. Thx, keep doing what you're doing

[@LuLzezRoflcopter]

Struggle with this during barbell squats. So afraid to round my back, but over arching the other way like this ive heard is even more dangerous for the spine during a lift. Its all about a solid straight stacked torso while squatting . Gotta keep practicing this, great advice here

[@Max-mm1sl]

In simpler terms, engage your core.

[@MegaDreamOo]

You are a legend. Well explained 👍

[@darkfieldsofme]

Took me 3 years of pain to find out i had APT, 3 Years of doing that superman to "help with herniated discs". Have been working hard on fixing it and getting better everyday

[@xxglowenxx]

Pilates and yoga are what pointed this out to me. I'm just glad that the people I follow constantly remind you to tuck your pelvis is, because otherwise, I'd forget 😅pretty sure I gained an inch too from the proper posture too lol

[@stefaniecawley218]

I feel that all through the front from ribs to thighs. Definitely adding it in

[@reillybab1]

You’re awesome 🙌💕thank you for all your videos love them

[@TomMorrison]

Thanks so much!

[@KMD2020]

Thanks man helped me a lot with my lower back pain

[@TomMorrison]

Awesome to hear!

[@kathleenmcelvogue5257]

Excellent explanation- l so needed this confirmation.

[@TomMorrison]

Glad it was helpful! 😄😄

[@helenar.6823]

Posture posture 😮

[@cycomew8581]

Love the magic and the magic will love you back

[@clcagwin]

That's what messed up my lower back further, laying back stretching

[@TomMorrison]

Have you seen this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaS7fnebaaqtnMksi=Sf80kt_c-Cdht-cr

[@Jeremy.Beutler]

Many indigenous tribes naturally find a J shaped spine with lots of glute engagement in their movement. They report almost no back pain. However, they also have very strong cores

[@TomMorrison]

Depends what people do really, if you’re fairly active and don’t load bilateral movements heavy then you can be fine with major postural deviations

[@lewisrainwater9527]

I spent maybe 6 months trying to correct a posterior pelvic tilt then one day was able to turn the constant tension in my abdominals off. Now i have posterior tilt and knee issues 😢. Working on core stability now.

[@TomMorrison]

Yeah it can be difficult when changing one area of your body, it can have impacts on another! You could benefit from this circuit too for your abductors: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqrSiHmBjJmphLMsi=ecj9gLn7Vb7AzjFK

[@KneeGrowDoingKneeGrowThings]

I've found learning to expand your diaphragm and create inter abdominal pressure forces you to run mechanically in best form

[@Omer-gv2tp]

Are you a pri guy too😅 how is your progress rn😅

[@KneeGrowDoingKneeGrowThings]

@@Omer-gv2tp my progress is inconsistent because I'm inconsistent with running in general. When i do apply the suggestions I can immediately feel a difference in my running form. I also trying to run with my forefoot

[@vsylve01]

My new PT had me do the Superman and others… and I was in such great(er) pain for 2 weeks … hmm think I’ll cancel those appointments

[@Omer-gv2tp]

I have excessive apt and my back keeps tilting i dont what to do i have tried everything doc

[@privacy3116]

And I sleep on my back for this

[@Chloilas]

I have this and when i try to walk with my hips in that position i get such painful SI joints after like 10 mins

[@erikvaldes4293]

What if you cant hold that position for long?

[@yyz125]

..but does that mean tight hip flexors too?

[@timonix2]

I have trouble finding whatever muscles needed to correct the position. It's like there isn't a mind muscle connection to use. At least not consciously

[@TomMorrison]

it can take a bit of practice, but with time your body should build that connection!

[@lauraestrada5941]

Will this work while sitting at my desk as well?

[@TomMorrison]

exercises to fix Anterior Pelvic Tilt are much more effective stood up or kneeling so your hips are fully extended :)

[@saaaaaamy]

Are there any stretches or mobility work to do before actually training to fix anterior pelvic tilt?

[@TomMorrison]

This is a great sequence to work on (old video, music and sound is pretty off) kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZOTla2dr9Z5aLc

[@melissathomas8918]

I have had a lower back injury for 20 years now, and my physical therapist told me that the Superman stretch was good for me to do. Considering I am still in a lot of pain, what exercise would you suggest? Aside from tilting my pelvis correctly.

[@TomMorrison]

This is a good one to start with tommorrison.uk/blog/the-best-advice-to-get-rid-of-chronic-back-pain-even-with-disc-injuries

[@melissathomas8918]

Thank you!

[@thedolcetto81]

Is anterior pelvic tilt always bad? I've heard many physios that it's not necessarily a problem

[@TomMorrison]

It’s not, and could just be your natural curve, strength, balance and overall flexibility and stability is more important to focus on rather than assigning all your issues to one thing like a tilt or one muscle 😄

[@djim2041]

What strength/ stretch work do you recommend to overcome this ?

[@TomMorrison]

[@djim2041]

@@TomMorrison thankyou!

[@VittorioRanieri]

Is it ok to squat and deadlift with apt?

[@TomMorrison]

Start working on this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZOTla2dr9Z5aLc

[@rajeevnaik3877]

But when I posteriorly rotate pelvis my spine literally gets flat without any curves. Isn’t that bad?

[@TomMorrison]

that's normal when you posteriorly rotate :) ideally you want somewhere inbetween, a "neutral" spine for everyday moving!

[@rajeevnaik3877]

Thanks ❤

[@rajeevnaik3877]

Thanks ❤

[@RumbleMeat]

For a proper deadlift, you need to have some anterior pelvic tilt

[@TomMorrison]

Neutral position really so supporting your natural lumbar curve, would need to be careful with the cue to APT incase someone mistakes it for just tightening the low back instead of bracing properly, then when they finish they’ll actually be overextended, can get away with it for a long time before it starts causing issues too

[@RumbleMeat]

@@TomMorrison I'm not recommending people do deadlifts improperly, but they should do them correctly with APT engaged

[@aiiso_]

what if i can only fix it standing still? like i physically can’t walk or run when i tuck my pelvis where it should be

[@TomMorrison]

Start by regularly fixing it while standing then over time it'll translate to moving!

[@aiiso_]

@@TomMorrison okay thank you i appreciate your reply !

I know right!? 😄😄

[@AntonioLiberato08]

Thoughts on teeth related to posture and anterior pelvic tilt?

[@TomMorrison]

I looked into those jaw alignment things for a bit but I don’t think it’s something for a regular Joe like me, more of a specialist thing

[@crisalykaios8216]

I got told by a chiropractor that my bum needed to stick out because I'm a female, with broken tailbone standing like that put me in agony. And I've apparently stood like a "male" my entire life

[@alikamal3464]

pretend you are doing up the buttons in you fly and hold keep it like that.

[@evilla9080]

Isn’t that a slight sciatica?

[@TomMorrison]

Can be, we have a good blog on sciatica at tommorrison.uk

[@ryanthompson3446]

I really want to say that i no longer believe this is true, some of the most athletic people on earth present with more of an anterior tilt when they move, also most indigenous tribes present with more of a tilt, the issue with this video is you are also flaring your ribs and a hip tilt and a rib flare do not actually need to present simultaneously.

[@TomMorrison]

Yes it’s very rarely the cause of pain or issues that people think it is, it’s still important to be able to express full range at the front of the hips when you move tho

[@user-hz5fn3pf1w]

You can’t fix anterior pelvic tilt that’s like saying how do I fix my skin colour lol your born with it it’s genetic

[@TomMorrison]

Excessive lordosis is a learned pattern that can be made worse or changed over time, some people do have a more natural lumbar curve but that’s not what I’m referencing here

[@jeffreyanderson5106]

I’ve watched many of your videos and they’re very good but this time you surely don’t know anything about what you’re talking about anatomically. This is what happens when you have to make these videos and sound like an expert on every subject to everyone. This is wrong you obviously don’t understand sprinting. Sorry just the truth.

[@TomMorrison]

Well you can check out the work I’ve been doing and the people I have helped for the past 5 years everywhere so I must know something
