      Question! I figured I have apt because my pelvis is rotated, causing back pain strain when standing or walking. The thing is, I'm struggling to stretch the hip flexors like it's a struggle to get my leg in vertical line with torso and when I stand with feet pointing straight and my pelvis is in apt position and I push my pelvis in neutral position... 1. It's impossible, 2. Unless I let my feet turn outside. So by the time my pelvis is neutral and glutes semi activated, my feet are 45 degrees out both. Does this mean I may actually not have apt and my issue is just that my hip sockets point outwards excessively? If so, how the heck do I walk with feet outward? I'm getting tired of this low back strain and no stretching or strengthening helping me. Thanks!

      @@mikah.6672 Hey do you have lower back pain? And do you wake up with a very stiff back that makes it hard to learn forward or backwards? When I first wake up my lower back is so stiff and tight I can’t bend forwards or backwards or even sit straight because it hurts to much. I can’t even walk, stand or sit well because of the pain. But after forcing myself to do so after a few hours I find that my hips just come forward and I find it hard to stand straight.

    Howdy, hey there, hello and hi,😀. I’ve been working on posture for three years! At first I didn’t know I was trying to correct my posture and up till about two years ago it dawned on me it’s my posture. You wouldn’t believe how bad off I was and still am. I have came along long way since I started stretching and have a long way to go thank you for your videos they help and it’s good for you to help others give and ask for nothing in return is good medicine as well! I would like to lose 100 pounds as well. Being over weight over eating and eating unhealthy compliment bad alignment!

    Unfotunately the first problem of the video is that there is absolutely NO evidence that posture can cause pain... Which should first make rethink the concept of « bad » and « good » posture...

      There is plenty of evidence that prolonged postures and positions cause pain. Literally ANY prolonged, unchanged position can elicit pain if held long enough.
      Various postures have already been devised in human history to quickly create physical pain.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hands_up_punishment
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murga_punishment
      Being locked in the same posture day to day is not an OBVIOUS issue. A mix of lifestyle habits, genetic disposition, hobbies, and regular varied physical activity can prevent or at least affect whether or not you experience posture-related pain. Ultimately, however, your attention needs to be on creating balanced muscles and muscle activity - not on achieving "perfect static posture."
      It's common to think there is a such thing as "good" or "bad" posture. This is understandable because modern daily life does not often confront us with the limitations of our crap posture. However, consider these two scenarios:
      1) You need to deadlift 200-300 pounds from the floor. Is there a way to position the body optimally to maximize strength output and minimize injury? If you answer "no," you've clearly never attempted it. You may be able to pick up a 5 pound package with poor posture, but once the stakes are higher, the consequences of bad posture are obvious.
      2) You need to carry a 50 pound pot on your head for a three mile walk. Would different postures affect energy output or potential for injury? For example, would attempting to achieve this task with forward head posture be equally comfortable as performing this task with a well-aligned spine, shoulders, and hips? The answer here is a clear yes. Properly aligning the load atop the head, spine, and hips will make the job easier (muscles need to work less hard as load is balanced on the column that is your bones). With forward head posture, the strain on the neck and shoulder muscles will become obvious QUICKLY, and you'd be on the sideline with physical discomfort.
      In daily life, poor posture isn't an issue until the speed, weight, and/or repetition hit the limit of what your body can tolerate. It's not a problem...until it obviously is.
