Often
times, people tend to be couch potatoes. When you think about
it, we've all been that person at one time or another in our lives.
However, lazing around too much can have its apparent physical
downfalls. Aside from the fact that it takes away time to better
your health and fitness, it can actually hurt you over time. And
this is where the anterior pelvic tilt comes in. Have you ever
heard of it before?
Well, let's get into it, shall
we? The anterior pelvic tilt occurs when the hip flexor muscles
(iliacus and Psoas) suddenly tighten up and become overactive.
They rotate forward then tug on
the top of the pelvis and the lumbar spine, which is located on
your lower back. Hence, its name: the anterior pelvic tilt. It
brings forth the pelvis, which then causes the tilt.
Furthermore, another cause of this
is an underactive glutes. These parts are not very strong, which
will then permit the tight and overactive deep hip flexor muscles
to be able to tug on the pelvis and lumber spine forward. Commonly,
this is a pain people find in their lower back. Have you personally
ever experienced this?
So, how exactly do you fix
these issues? Well, corrective exercises are the solution to that.
To give the pelvis a chance to return to its upright position,
try some stretches to loosen the tight deep hip flexors. As for
the glutes, also try isolated strengthening to correct the anterior
pelvic tilt.
