As a posture focused physiotherapist this video is on point ! one thing I might add is to pay attention to the position of the ribs and by extension the head, as a shift in their position might cause the pelvis to tilt anteriorily to compensate.
Great video! Perfect storytelling by splitting everything into categories with specific test tricks and improvement exercises! You even seamlessly integrated your ads so that they fit the topic. Bravo 👏🏻
I know this is your business and you're making money off of it, but thank you for being a legitimately good person. Your resources are amazing and give people hope when all others have gone. Thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart to you and all your team. Love you all.
Tight hamstrings prevent anterior pelvic tilt and proper pelvic movement. Yes hip flexors are a big deal as well. Stretch your flexors if you sit. But releasing your hip flexors will not release your hamstrings. Release both. Most people dont even realize that they are supposed to bend with the sacrum aligned with the spine... they just bend at the spine because the hamstrings, glutes, piriformis are so tight. Hand to feet with straight back, feel the hamstring stretch, then release back. The solition, as a yoga instructor and deep tissue massage therapist, is to stretch the hamstrings and glutes along with deep tissue massage on the glutes and piriformis Tight hamstrings means lost range of movement and thus low back suffers as it is not designed to take the motion of the pelvis.
See this is what I'm seeing being debated across alot of anterior pelvic tilt videos. Most people say dont stretch the hamstrings, they're already tight! But I watched a video on upright health ua-cam.com/video/vbowLTZXjMw/v-deo.html and he explained that your hamstrings are aren't actually in their tightest position when your standing, they are when your body is bent over, think of trying to touch your toes and how much more of a stretch that is then just standing. So because you have tight hamstrings you can't even do deadlift like motions properly, hence you can't even strengthen your hamstrings properly.
Summary: Self Assesment: 1. thight hip flexors 1:54 (fix hip flexors: standing desk, alternat seating positions, sitting on the floor; hip flexor stretching); 2.. Stable core Test 5:06 (core Training better then Yoga Stretch; do planks or harder MCGill Big 3: Bird Dog, Side Plank, modiefied Curl-Up); 3. Do my feet pronate? no test 7:34 [test is in other video, make dot over foot arch, mesuare distance to floor withouth weight load, stand on the one foot/leg and measure again, if 9mm lower - not ok] (use barefoot shoes from his website); Glutes are always involved; 11:13 Glute or Hamstring dominant? if not, re-educate them -> do hip abduction and feel for muscle activation with hands on the muscle.
As a person who suffered from the exact problem and goes to physical therapy a lot, I would say it is very professional. In experience step2/4works best for me.
This is the best video for lower back pain. I've been researching this stuff for the past 2 years and I wish this I found this video sooner. I'm a slow learner. Lol
accidentally bought barefoot shoes a couple years ago. (had no idea what they were). never gone back to "normal" shoes again, its the best shoes i've ever had
I am using finger gel spacers on feet, first week its hurt. But after few weeks i can wear them even in vans shoes without pain. Shoes become little wider, and fingers got more narrow, and my feet stability got alot better. I combined it with basic squats with own weight, and im seeing changes to better.
Very informative. I notice the glutes is everything. I have left lateral pelvic tilt plus anterior pelvic tilt. It tightens my calf muscles, knee problems, I did walking and running all my life, track athlete. I am in my 50s. Yoga is the love of my life now, I can't even power walk, without my hamstring feeling as though it's going to tear .
Great explanation of hamstring/glute dominance, exactly what I experience on my left side. If you want to fix the glute mobility further, the assisted hip airplane might be something for you.
I need to know the stretches for the opposite culprit: Standing for long periods of time. 3 days a week or more, I'm on my feet in surgery for 12 hours a day. I have tight hamstrings, tight calves, and tight IT band. What should I do to offset this?
Horrid anterior tilt and grueling front hip pain for many years. Can do 2 minute planks. But technique is probably ugly. Leg press any good? Figure it will work both glutes and hamstrings?
I'm 41, have extremely flat feet and my knees are now bone on bone. Do you still recommend the strength shoes in this situation? My doctor has prescribed custom orthotics. But, I definitely want to strengthen my feet.
how about those who are born with these problems you mentioned. is there a chance for them to improve. i suffer from this issue for 26 years. as a result , i can't squat and stand on one leg. how can i overcome this issue please . i really need your advice.
Hey man. Excellent video! I am very interested in how you use the apple vision pro for real benefits. All I have seen so far is people taking their screens with them everywhere they go - which is not what I want in life.
Sorry I know this is probably a unique question but in the first test with my back on the table my hip and knee do fine but my shin and ankle don’t fall like they should is this still anterior pelvic tilt?
What if I have strong abs and core but everytime I train my core I get low back pain and hip flexors take over… do I need to strengthen glutes and lengthen hip flexors until I can do them pain free?
Please, address obesity : feet, calves, shin, knees suffer. Fluid retention, blood pooling. Belly fat pulls down the belly. The result is addressed in your video. Being uncomfortable leads to more sitting. PTs only think along the lines of fixing hips, hamstrings, quads and pelvis but for obese folks, the fixing starts with the feet and weight management (low carb, fasting) - not with the location of the consequences. None of the internet PTs do videos specifically for the obese but that group is quite numerous and PTs prove totally ignorant on what obesity does to the body. Same with the etiology of obesity. Many have been mistreated for decades.
Appreciate the knowledge you shared; However, there is nothing like Durga Namaskar- it is Surya Namaskar. Besides, Surya Namaskar is not a one stop shop for Yoga asanas. There are many more specific asanas to fix pelvic issues. Oh, while I am at it- Bikram Yoga, Power Yoga and many other so-called patented stretches are not even Yoga. Please don't mind my comment. I have seen people being total snobs for calling a macron as a cookie- Yoga is a way deeper subject than mere yoga asanas. most people don't even know proper way to do yoga asanas (leave alone Yoga) even after years of half baked knowledge acquired from posh "yoga studios" by teachers that have done 300 hours of training and become "experts". Duh.
Wow I didnt expect VR in this video. I like it but also I am researching its risks. Curious to what your thoughts are about it from the physiotherapist side with its added weight in the front of the head.
Yes, I think VR is really cool but have terrible neck pain for days after using the VR headset. Would love videos on ways to compensate for the extra weight on the head and neck

what do you mean? please explain more explicitly

Can you elaborate by giving a good effective stretch split?
Can u provide me exercise for this issue. Please. As u told.

Hand to feet with a straight back is something most sedentary people will not be able to do.
Joining your program today 😭❤️🙏🏾thank you for all you do

Do I get a prize if I suffer from all 4? 😂😂
Yes, a rusty spanner and some WD40 🎉
Following in the footsteps of Douglas Adams, that is a physical hat trick you have😂👍
🎉🎉Anterior Pelvic Tilt!!!!!🎉🎉 Hurray!
...at least we know whats up
Back pain 💐
Same here! Haha

Are you okay now or is there still progress in your pelvis?

Great video. I love how you bullet pointed 4 topics and the animated videos with the sound effects was spot on. Cheers 🥂

Excellent video which showed me what I have been having doing to cause my pelvic tilt and tight hamstrings and what to do to to correct correct it.

I hope he answers because I'm in the same boat, I stand 40 hrs a week.
✋ same
Try sitting more
Same here 😊
Type in the Google antagonist of that muscles and do the exercises or steches
What a great video, so much useful information!
You are good, your video explained my anterior pelvic than any healthcare professional I've come across.
I found this very educative and complete in the information provided. Thank you!
Horrid anterior tilt and grueling front hip pain for many years. Can do 2 minute planks. But technique is probably ugly. Leg press any good? Figure it will work both glutes and hamstrings?
Please do a video on calcaneal bursitis mine wont go away!
excellent job mate, you really explained it all clearly
Great video. Subscribed.
Best of the best for Hamstrings and Gluts … Do you have exercise vdo (both muscles) for people who has knee pain? / Thanks
Enjoyed every second of the video! Would love to know if any of the exercises you mentioned help in healing groin pain.
Thank you! So helpful!
I stand and walk a lot at work and still have this.
Have all of the buff but I also have a lateral pelvic tilt in addition to all this
This is REALLY great! I learned a ton from this video. Thank you very much!
For strengthening my glutes I do hip thrusts with 40 kg weights. More effective than glute bridges
Always lekker videos my bru. Thanks for helping to improve my life!
Excellent video
I'm 41, have extremely flat feet and my knees are now bone on bone. Do you still recommend the strength shoes in this situation? My doctor has prescribed custom orthotics. But, I definitely want to strengthen my feet.
11:15 What we should do if we are glutes dominant? I have really tight hamstrings and anterior pelvic tilt
Who says you are really glute dominant? How are you gauging that?
Do you have any videos for tight hip rotator muscles instead of flexors?
Thanks Chris. ❤
As always.
What about those who supinate in their feet? My right foot supinates more than the left and the right foot tends point outwards I’ve noticed as well.
I have flat feet already. Do you think barefoot shoes will help more rather than the a shoes w/ support/made for overpronation eg. gel kayano 30.
def solving 87% of my issues
Please one video on SI joint pain I am 17 year old and I have SI joint pain
excellent video ❤ thank u!
how long to does tight exercise last?
I have 2 acls reconstructions on each knee and right knee has NO meniscus - unf need cushioning, barefoot shoes hurt. Any suggestions ?
Thank you for your content!
Very informative video.
Please address neuropathy in the legs while training the feet and legs. This is my nemesis.
Can one have anterior pelvic tilt on only one leg? or its twisted pelvis instead? I'm confused differentiating between these two?
how about those who are born with these problems you mentioned. is there a chance for them to improve. i suffer from this issue for 26 years. as a result , i can't squat and stand on one leg. how can i overcome this issue please . i really need your advice.
What if i have lower back pain when standing for too long? That’s why i sit a lot. And when doing the 1 leg bridge i feel it mostly in my lower back.
Video on Apple Vision pro - Yes please!
Tq for the detailed description
do tight groin/adductors coach pleaseee!!
Fantastic explanation
Can u make a video where one hip is posterior tilt and the other one anterior tilt . Rotated pelvis
Look up PRI and left aic / right bc pattern
Hey man. Excellent video! I am very interested in how you use the apple vision pro for real benefits. All I have seen so far is people taking their screens with them everywhere they go - which is not what I want in life.
Sorry I know this is probably a unique question but in the first test with my back on the table my hip and knee do fine but my shin and ankle don’t fall like they should is this still anterior pelvic tilt?
Surprised by the glute discussion and no mention of the psoas.
Why would they use that yoga series? For hip flexors / hamsteings /ab strength do sun salutations.
The amount of ads in this video is insane
3:01 the example you show is extreme, most of the time the resting leg will get raised only slightly
Thank you for the information
Help to strengthen the arch of foot
Walk may not help me as arches are bad
First of all, it's 2 am. Secondly, thank you 😂
Comprehensive Thanks
Can you review this indian barefoot brand called andune? Their bolt models are famous and are the entry point for barefoot shoes in India
How to clinch the gluts while doing plank. I cant do this :/
Fantastic video, really love the diagnostics
Great video. Do you have any tips to solve it band syndrome when running?
я не искал это видео , оно само меня нашло , то что надо )
Yes Dead butt syndrome is real I had it and it gave me anterior pelvic tilt
What if I have strong abs and core but everytime I train my core I get low back pain and hip flexors take over… do I need to strengthen glutes and lengthen hip flexors until I can do them pain free?
Its likely your rectus femoris. Look up how to release and stretch them. Dont do anything that works your hip flexors for a few months as well.
Thanks brother
This video is Golden!
4:04 no apel pro, no progre$$. 😁😁😁😁⚰️
❤Thank you so much❤
Helpful take.
Good.
I thought that all the support in the shoes helped the knees? If not, I’m about to invest in some barefoot shoes.

Love when i can can do all this, but my hamstrings are still tight

8:30 i dont think this applies to flat feet ppl?
1,2,4 = sitting during work
Wow I didnt expect VR in this video. I like it but also I am researching its risks. Curious to what your thoughts are about it from the physiotherapist side with its added weight in the front of the head.
Yes, I think VR is really cool but have terrible neck pain for days after using the VR headset. Would love videos on ways to compensate for the extra weight on the head and neck
Is that you, Bane?
Barefoot? What about the foot blisters?
saw the thumbnail and thought this was a drake thing at first glance 💀
Did anyone else see the thumbnail and thought this was a video making fun of Drake?
How on earth can a muscle be "inactive"? Just not used? Idk.
This is a long drawn out ad, holy crap.
Hup flixer
I thought the thumbnail was drake twerking 😂
where a pair of chuck taylors your feet will hurt if you arent use to it
Apt happens because of weak hamstrings.not tight hamstring
Lol you’re so wrong. More people have a pelvic tilt with crazy thighs than people built like pencils.
both
то о чем он говорит на второй минуте это iliopsoas а не quadriceps femoris и тест тоже не верный, этот человек не знает о чем он говорит.
VR is no good for the myelin sheath and brain though ......
to the glutemobile!
29/5.
I was born like that, is that even really fixable?
It is
What gender are you ?
👌
