Thank you so much! My posterior pelvic tilt is terrible, and I kept seeing so many videos on anterior pelvic tilt, but this feels like the most comprehensive video I've seen far for posterior pelvic tilt.

[@tadghcr2175]

I try to watch every upload regardless of title in case a stretch or exercise helps any of my general weakness. Thank you for the info about all those middle back parts! That's probably the weakest part of me currently. I'm so glad I checked this video :)

[@HeWhoKnows777]

1. Dear Doctor, I spent 30 years playing video games and now when I go to bed while brushing my teeth I see myself in the mirror and my pelvic displacement has become noticeably bad. I have to rethink my entire life. I survived a $225K medbill automobile crash in 07'. My condition is critical. Videos like this educate, help motivate and provide the means to understand this condition and how to fix it. Thank you. 2. Yes! And yes!

[@tommooreland2231]

Thanks for making a video on posterior tilt. There are so many on anterior tilt, but few on posterior. As usual, your explanation on the causes make total sense. I was starting to believe that I was the only person with it. Will be starting in the morning!

Thanks you my posterior tilt has been a huge problem for me this last decade starting these exercises now hope they help. Will update in a couple weeks

[@laurajgrant]

By far the best movement / physical coach on this here youtube. I hope you hit a mil soon! And as for this topic, this video outshines all others on PPT, in the explanations, exercises and gentle hilarity. I think physios have been trying to get me to do some of these exercises in the past, but they never really explain the background or rationale, which is why it NEVER STICKS! Maybe that's so we keep going back to them! Your content is truly exceptional

[@seraphina3848]

I am seeing a chiropractor for lower back pain, hip pain, and knee pain. I didn't feel like I had a reasonable answer to my body aches and pains located primarily in the pelvic region. A visit to ER in immense pain informed me the pain wasn't organ related but muscular/skeletal related pain without anything specific explanation other than advice to see an orthopedic doctor. It has been previously noted the left hip needs to be replaced and I have arthritis and disc degeneration in many of my joints or I should say all. The chiropractor noted a rotated or twisted pelvis and after several visits for adjustments I am still twisted. I know the pelvic region is weak and the hips, especially the left has limited range of motion. My goal is to improve my pelvic strength and structure while being mindful of a bad hip on one side and bad knee on the other. In addition, to take responsibility of these issues and do something instead waiting in waiting rooms and never getting an 'A-HA' and 'This is what you have to do' from a medical perspective. Thank you and here I go.

[@Peter-gn8pj]

Hi, i just discovered your videos and am trying out your exercises for hip especially - since I am looking at some injections for cartilage damage in one hip. Living in France. I started the Hip Strengthening Following Along Exercises and then the stretching here: hamstrings and the abdo stretch laying down. An active 60 year old ( a lot of cycling- legs probably waay to stiff: feel like steel bands, etc..). As for posterior pelvic tilt, I've always been frustrated that I have a rounded lower back, so we'll see if this work helps. It certainly feels good to do these. Having just spent time with a very aged family member trying to get them a little more functional, your personal story regarding your mom spoke to me as well. going forwards, I've sort of "accepted" the idea of hip replacement because I keep telling myself that I want to keep active and not put off something which will help me maintain my activity (cycling and bike touring basically) as I head towards retirement etc..Anyhow thanks for your videos.

[@amysuehayes9838]

Excellent video with excellent reminders about lordosis and pelvic tilt😊 Great exercises and stretches. I really appreciate your approach to taking care of yourself❤

This video was really informative. I found out that I have PPT from seeing a physiotherapist last week - I have been dealing with chronic TFL pain on my left side and it got really bad after doing some heavy squatting. Looking forward to getting this solved so I can get back to my weight lifting routine.

Thanks this is a great video. I'm going to try these 3x a week and see. I have been having really bad mid upper back pain for months. I think it's ultimately due to my ppt and I have slouched rounded shoulders. I am going to try these ev exercises along with core workouts and upper back workouts.

[@gonzalopresa6206]

Extraordinario. Seguire los consejos,ejercicioa y estiramientos. Ojala se corrija pronto mi posterior pelvic tilt

[@katemoline7985]

I think I got a posterior tilt from when I started working from home in 2020. I would prop my legs up and slump in my chair. Never fully rid myself of the problem and then I had 2 kids. Find my tilt has gotten worse with lifting and holding them. This was very helpful, more helpful than all my chiropractor visits. Would love a video on how to hold baby/toddler without hurting your back more. Also best sleep position for a posterior tilt. I find that I am just in a c shape all night.

[@stephmax3124]

I use to walk with a lower walker; now I use a upright walker but I am unable to stand up straight YET‼️ Working on it with physical therapy and you. 💥👍🏾💥

[@happyjennie727]

Thank you so much for this video! I discovered that my pelvis doesn’t tilt properly when trying to do a seated wide-legged forward fold in yoga. Even with a blanket under my butt, I struggle to get my pelvis to tilt forward and can’t bend forward even to my elbows. I will try your methods right away! 😅🤞

[@Lung314]

For me, due to my background in ballroom dancing and having been through all types of injuries in the past, I became very conscious of my body symmetry and aware of what kind of pains are related to which potential regions of the body. In this case, I did my routine body check in the mirror and noticed I had a posterior pelvic tilt again, but forgot what exercises would be helpful. I also noticed how much more engaged my glutes were this time, which is a different scenario from my past posterior pelvic tilt problems, so I wanted a refresher and an in depth learning about the other potential limiting factors in my muscle imbalance.

[@rayantaher3041]

Super helpful, thank you 😊.

[@lucasvance4386]

Fantastic stuff, so in depth thank you

[@MollyRoachSings]

as a yogi, a lot of the postures are taken from a posterior pelvic tilt positioning. which is quite interesting how this ends up resulting in the same postural thing as sitting all day even if you're flexible in the hamstrings.

[@donnachristensen3449]

Ive been watching you videos since the pandemic hit specifically the follow alongs you did in the park. Its what motivated me to begin my health journey! I cant say thank you enough. Ive been able to fix alot but am struggling w a compressed upper chest. Suggestions? Or a video youve done? (Ive looked but havent found my answer yet).

Great Channel. Great info. Keep up the The Great work. Great Job!

[@scot2313]

Recommended your channel to my son and a younger friend with back problems. Good matter of fact explanations without off putting jargon. Believe if you really know your stuff you can teach it to a fourth grader. Have long term posterior pelvic tilt. In grade school my older brother called me Mr Noassatall.. Good exercises. Wonder how to get a chair like the one you used. Looks simple. But know some simple chairs expensive. Or did you make it?

[@bron-sconcess.10]

Hi! Have you named that skeletal pint sized pal? Very nice touch 🌝! Well I'm really glad I stuck it out to the end. Currently, weaker on one side, hip flexion wise. You do a great job, thanks. 💚 ❤

[@amirasamir3344]

Thank you very Informative video. Is weak abs same as tight abs ?

[@galenwilliams9839]

This has been really helpful. I’ve only gone through these twice and feel more like my old younger self. I find it hard/impossible to feel the glute stretch. Maybe I’m doing it wrong? I tried all the variations and nothing happens. The hip flexor strength exercises are so hard though! I can only do 8 before needing a break. Maybe I’ve found my weak spot. Might there be some front-back connection?

[@essentialwills161]

good exercices

[@JudyVinAZ]

I found you because my PT is trying to teach me Kegels- supported Posterior Pelvic Tilt, and I don’t “get it”, so I came to see if I could see somebody do this I would understand how. Something about elevating the pelvic floor “elevator.” Huh?!? I can’t even GET on the floor so I try on my bed. Not the same. Thank you!

[@Tina-fq3sd]

Thanks for this. I realised I do have flat back and it is a family trait to have no bum at all lol. However, I used to do the arched back exercise which helped my sciatica enormously but now I have stenosis and bending forward alleviates the burning anterior thigh pain. Any suggestions on how to combine these exercises when you also have stenosis? Thanks for these vids - I have sent your info to friends and colleagues also.

[@loriwilliamson5738]

Thank you for this video! You offer a few cues that I hadn't heard before. I'm working on my posterior pelvic tilt, AND I see some improvement, a little lordosis happening(yay!!!), BUT I'm now presenting an anterior pelvic tilt with my center of mass pulling me forward. I don't want to train an anterior tilt. How can I know when to stop? What should I feel when I'm neutral?

[@rosesandpeonies6801]

Every single exercise are incredibly difficult to perform. It looks easy until i try to do it. So weird! It doesn't help that I'm a bodybuilder girl. I need to practice these A LOT. Thanks for the video, its very much needed here

[@Elias-zc9xz]

I really appreciate this guide. I've been dealing with chronic pain in my sacrum and tailbone for a few years. I'm in physical therapy for it right now and they've said I have posterior pelvic tilt and and unstable pelvis. They seem predominantly focused on glute and side hip strengthening, but I don't actually feel like I am weak in those areas. They've barely done anything with my core or back after 6 sessions. Watching the video, I am really struggling with the hamstring parts. With any hamstring stretch, I always seem to feel it in a different spot than my hamstrings. With hamstring stretch #1, I feel pulling in my hips and sacral area. With option #2, I feel a strain in my calves (I do stretch my calves and they don't seem tight otherwise). I really don't understand how to get my hamstrings to stretch or work, despite being told by multiple professionals that they are one of my big problem areas. Do you have any advice?

[@Whocares1987]

Let me tell you..:I’ve had SI joint pain for years and I FINALLY figured out what was causing it. I want you to try what I tried and let me know how much it helps you. It was literally a life saver……look up every video on “improving inward hip mobility” and start doing all of those stretches and exercises. The 90/90 stretch alone helped my lower back pain tremendously. It’s literally what was killing my SI joint for years. Maybe you have something else causing your pain but a lot of stuff is caused by the hips and the position of the pelvis, so Hip mobility is important to work on regardless. A lot of people with posterior tilt also have the pelvis titling inwards as well, causing duck feet and the hip bone sticking out of the side of your back. Working on inward hip mobility is working everything in the other direction.

[@Elias-zc9xz]

@@Whocares1987 I appreciate the tip! Were there any specific videos or channels you would recommend? I've watched a couple but they haven't really gotten into the specifics you mentioned so I feel like I may be watching the wrong videos.

[@Whocares1987]

@@Elias-zc9xz umm hard to say really because I watched so many….i just started doing a bunch of different basic inward hip mobility exercises and started getting pain relief almost immediately

[@TS.island01]

Thank you doctor. My s1L5L4 are so curved and the rest of L disks and lower toracal discs are so straight. I may have pelvic tilt but then again I have lordosis in the lower back. I had herniated disc inquiry 8 years ago. Its on those discs.

[@scot2313]

Great video. Just what I need. 72 with long time posterior pelvic tilt. Am working at my computer a lot. Where did you get the cool minimalist chair. Or did you make it yourself?

[@АлексейБалтер-щ5х]

I have strong PPT from doing squats incorrectly (distributing weight through the toes vs the ball of the feet) and, consequently, weak glutes and very tight hamstrings. I hope that I can, G-d willing, start fixing those issues soon -- added slouch makes my posture really annoying to look at

[@dellaray]

Thank you! I’ve been doing this for about 8 weeks now, and I see results! I have one question. I want to do some abdominal workouts for my c-section belly, but I’m worried it could hinder my progress with my posterior pelvic tilt. Do you think I should wait to start anything like that?

[@anujbhatia3337]

I clicked because I have Spondy, and a posterior pelvic tilt actually helps with certain stretching and exercises actually feels good! Wondering if this video applies for folks with extension intolerant pain?

[@felixcaskey4193]

A lot of trans women struggle with pelvic position. They don't all get the estrogen-induced tightening of certain muscles that results in the "feminine" hip position and spine curve. The exercises for correcting posterior pelvic tilt are often used to get a shape more within the typical range we expect from a woman.

I’ve seen my doctor they can’t do anything else until it shows up as a cyst. I was looking into ways to sit without pain and found a name in that article for my problem, “posterior tilt”.

[@Kidtheung]

I have a tight pelvic floor and my lower back mri says my spine is.straighted.. so I think i might have had this posterior pelvic tilt. Im also used to the hunched position.

[@creep12peerc]

Another question. My posterior pelvic tilt prevents me from doing squats with proper form (neutral back). Is there any work around for this? RDLs are solid for deadlift alternatives but what about the squat? Simply less ROM?

[@MyaILeNaF]

I got sciatica symptoms. Now, it seems I don't have the flexibility to bend forward and touch my toes - HURTS and gives me an electric shock to stop the flexing/stretching (of the nerve). So I'm being more mindful about posture, about what is a posterior tilt, an anterior tilt. I spent too much in a sitting position (while driving 4 hrs daily, while sitting at work 8 hours, while sleeping in a chair or car seat etc 🥱.

How big of a problem is it if the back is not in lordosis during your hamstring stretch? I feel like even when doing the ham stretches its so difficult to make sure my back is neutral/in lordosis rather than posteriorly tilted :(

Hello, you know what’s funny I’m very flexible at the hamstrings the reason i have lordosis is actually quite simple I have big boobs that does round my back forward. So yes ive learned how to prevent back pain by staying working on my hamstrings and lower back that my waist is actually very petite that it’s very difficult to find appropriate tops that fit me . If it’s baggy it automatically makes me look a bit square. But yes Im gonna continue to work on low weight but I still need my heavy for my nervous system and my quads they can go away fast if I don’t. :( now that I’m turning back to muscles and less fat so I’m tighter and the booty will look more perkier when I wear shirts that are tight at the rib cage line waist then I look like I have a hr shape. My waist is actually quite small and only getting stronger. And due to inactivity :( due to my line of work.
