The Most Important Form Tip To Prevents Big Fitness Injuries
If you've worked with me (and trusted me as your coach) you're familiar with the pelvic tilt.
The pelvic tilt is a simple movement, but it has a huge impact on your body. And BTW, when you work with me, we won't move on to anything else until you master it.
It's kind of my thing, and it should be yours too.

Let's start out with a demo. Click play, listen in, and then I'll share a little more.

Let's start out with a demo. Click play, listen in, and then I'll share a little more.
See, the movement is small and simple, but it does these very important things:
- Creates control: you gain control when you exercise, which means you're engaging the right muscles and getting more out of each movement.
- Prevents injury: that extra control helps keep you injury free, which is critical to any good fitness routine!
- Corrects posture: your back isn't meant to overextend, so when you master the pelvic tilt, you strengthen the front and back of your core which protects your back and leads to better posture.
If you haven't mastered the pelvic tilt, when you get in plank position your back droops, your butt is lifted, and you feel tension in your back. When you're standing position, your back curves in, your belly sticks out, and you simply don't get the support you need.
But add that pelvic tilt and suddenly you remove the tension from your lower back and engage your core. THIS is where you build strength and prevent injury.
We're not done here, though, because there's nothing quite as impactful as actually feeling the difference in a movement with and without the pelvic tilt.
I've got a workout that will help you practice the tilts we're talking about here, (because like mom always said, practice makes perfect), so click the button below to begin an upper body pelvic tilt workout.
Make sure to pay attention to the difference in each exercise with the pelvic tilt and without it. When you do, you'll really understand the BIG impact this small movement has on your body.
And when you've finished, be sure to check out the push up and bridge pelvic tilt demo.
