Lindsey Jones | Doctor of Physical Therapy on Instagram: "A few reasons for anterior pelvic tilt ⬇️

1. Tip hip flexors (namely the iliopsoas and rectus femoris)

The iliopsoas starts in the lumbar spine and the pelvis and attaches to the femur (leg bone).  The rectus femoris starts in the pelvis and attaches to the patella (knee cap). Because of their attachments, tightness in either or both of these muscles will rotate the pelvis forward

2. Weak core, especially lower core

When your abdominal muscles are weak or lengthened, they do not produce the tension that they need.  In this case, lower abdominal weakness will promote an anterior pelvic tilt position.

3. Weak glutes and hamstrings

The backside of your pelvis also needs appropriate force of its muscles to counteract the forward r Tilted Pelvis Symptoms, Anterior Pelvic Tilt Correction, Tilted Pelvis, Pelvic Tilt Exercise, Fix Anterior Pelvic Tilt, Weak Glutes, Rectus Femoris, Weak Core, Anterior Pelvic Tilt

Learn how a simple ‘C-curve’ exercise can help realign your pelvis, decompress your hip joint, and potentially alleviate pain.

Does your pelvis even know you are breathing?

Most of us have a disconnect between our pelvis and ribcage

⚠️ WHY? 
Short shallow chest breaths will disconnect our ribcage and pelvis.

If you BREATHE IN and your pelvis doesn’t feel it…you are missing a massive part of your system.

Without integration core and ( ribcage and pelvis) posture and movement will be EFFORT
… it will NEVER be efficient. 

GET THE AIR LOW.

If you struggle with pelvic floor, pressure belly, posture, core, breathing human movement, headaches…start be making sure your ribcage and pelvis are connected.

Brittany Sharpe McCollum on Instagram: "Why is the first pic an inlet (top of the pelvis) opener in #childbirth ?
💫 Deep squat with tucking under of tailbone increases front to back space potentially by a few millimeters (note: this may be mitigated by tilting back of the iliac bones and lat activation depending on individual mobility)
💫 External thigh rotation increases side to side space at the top
💫 Lengthening of the pelvic floor due to hip angle and width of thighs 

How do we open the outlet (bottom of the pelvis) in the second pic?
💫 Elevated squat tilts the top of the sacrum forward, opening the bottom
💫 Internal thigh rotation increases side to side space at the bottom 
💫 Vaginal opening moves towards floor, decreasing risk of tearing
