    **POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT PLAN**
    STRETCHES
    Hamstring stretch
    Glute Stretch
    Ab stretch
    [optional quad/hip flexor stretch]
    Stretches hold for 1-2 minutes, 2-3 sets (per side where applicable. Do sequentially (e.g. finish 2 sets of hamstring stretches before moving on to glute stretches, etc.) or as a circuit (e.g. 1 set of hamstring stretches, 1 set of glute stretches, 1 set of ab stretches, then repeat).
    STRENGTH
    Romanian deadlift (START LIGHT)
    Standing or Prone Spine Extension

    Strength exercises to pain-free and controlled level of fatigue, 2-3 sets. Do sequentially, not as a circuit.
    SCHEDULE
    Ideal: Do stretches then strength exercises.
    Next best: Stretches, then strength exercises at another time or on another day.
    Start with 2x a week. If it feels good and not too taxing or painful, go UP TO 4x/week. Above all, LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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?

    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

    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?

      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.

    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 🥱.
