    Agreed, you should not flatten or roll your spine in order to engage this muscle, that defeats the purpose of holding "neutral spine".

    I was taught that the TA is not able to tilt the pelvis, that is the work of the internal obliques. So, I don't think what you are palpating is the TA....

      Change Your Rhythm is this actually a pelvic tilt instead of transverse abdominus activation?

    • @roquefort6270
      @roquefort6270 6 років тому +8

      I agree, the maneuver must be done without tilting the pelvis. I think the patient has to mantain a proper alignment at the lumbar spine, that is the neutral zone

    i could never seem to do the 'pelvic tilt' to find that muscle, but when i clinch my butt muscles, the pelvic tilts; have i got it?

      Hi Kevin. You can tilt the pelvis my activating you glutes (your but muscles), but then you are not - like you are actually saying - activating your core. But as I comment above, the tilt happens through the internal obliques, not the Transverse Abdominus. If you want to activate the TA, you want to have a sense of your waistline becoming slimmer and your belly flattening gentle, with you pelvis in a neutral position.

      Put your hands so your fingers are pressing into your lower abs/obliques just above the top of your hip bone, breath ALL the way out, when you feel your fingers start to be pushed back, that’s what you’re trying to feel.

    Hi I do weight lifting with this way you showed us . But I have all my friend say breath in an exspand your belly . What is this way my physio told be it can cause pelvic tilt an even lordosis if done incorrectly. So confused.

    • @vaibhavsoni7040

      typically when lifting you want to "push out" your belly button or the better term is "brace" it as if you are expecting someone to punch you, it allows for more stability in lifts compared to this exercise. The exercise shown is still great but not when doing heavy lifting where you want stability

      Can you point to the study(ies) that support that? There appears to be some well informed and educated people that still support TrA activation as essential, Paul Hodges comes to mind. Also how does one learn to support and stabilize the spine?

    • @alexbradley3635
      @alexbradley3635 4 роки тому +9

      While it may not work for some people, there seems to be a certain subset of patients with low back pain that will benefit from strengthening TrA. The human population is vastly diverse and no diagnosis is exactly the same.
