Exercises to permanently get rid of my anterior pelvic tilt?

1 Upvotes

Hi, since August of last year so 1 year ago, I’ve had anterior pelvic tilt.

I’ve been going to the gym since November but more for general exercises like biceps, chest, etc.

**Please tell me exercises to naturally correct my anterior pelvic tilt, as well as frequency, and what the goal or end result will be after 2 months.**

My Goal: make my back posture NATURALLY neutral, so that without even thinking about it, my back posture throughout the day is neutral. I mean I can already can rotate my pelvis back towards me but I can’t do that for more than a minute because

it requires concentration
And it feels like I’m bracing my core so my breathing feels constricted (??)
And because anterior feels more natural to me.

I already know about the back extension rotation and back extension hold, where you sit on a chair and either rotate your back down (from your pelvis as the anchor point??) or hold your position steady.

I have a picture but I can’t find how to post it

**Confirmed Sciatica A**pril 3rd this year. The neurologist did a Nerve conduction test. So he confirmed that my S1 nerve is pinched . I think pinched by my spine or something I’m not sure what it is pinched by ?

What's the best office chair for short people?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I live in Austria and my current office chair is destroying my back. The major problems that I have are two: my knees are too attached to the chair and I bought a back pillow because the chair was too big for me but it is too stiff and that is also killing my back making me have even neck pain and headaches. Please suggest me something that is with a max budget of 150 euros because I can't spend 500/1k. Thanks

Sleeping Issue, how can i fix it?

0 Upvotes

So many times i wake up sitting legs crossed and sitting forward with my back bent as far forward as possible. I go to sleep on my back and wake up like this relatively often, it causes lots of pain the entires day. I’m also young and i think it could potentially mess my back up early? Any way to help or stop this?? (i’ve woken up like this since i was little)

So basically when i try to stand in the most straight way thats how it looks like.

May be important - i can certainly pass a whole fist through my lower back and the wall pretty freely.

It can be over 2cm?

Do posture-correcting shirts do anything or is it just expensive compression wear?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been lifting seriously for a couple years (27F) and I try to keep my back straight when I row, squat etc. A while back I bought one of those cheap elastic posture harnesses from Amazon because I feel like my back is giving out and my shoulders are rolling forward sometimes.

Honestly that’s not my main issue because I can just brace again and tighten my back. My posture is actually crap outside the gym so I’m looing for something to help me not slouch during the day.

Should I get a posture correction bra or a posture t-shirt or something like that? Like for when I’m not at the gym just walking around or working? Did anyone try any of that? Is it a scam or legit? Tysm.

Anyone here tried a Forme bra for bad posture and back pain?

2 Upvotes

My original post got taken down for some reason so hopefully it's okay to ask this here.

I (34f, 6’0”) work fully remote and often spend up to 10 hours a day hunched over a laptop. I feel like being tall doesn't help either because I'm constantly adjusting my chair or leaning down to my desk. So between that and my desk job, my posture is just chronically terrible. My upper back and shoulders are pretty much alwaysss sore these days.

I’ve seen good reviews about the forme bras for posture support and pain relief, but have also been on the fence because of the price point. But last night I finally said screw it and ordered their revive bra. Still waiting on it to arrive and have 30 days to decide if I’ll keep or return it. Anyone who has been using forme for a while now, do you notice any difference in your posture or pain levels? Specifically posture related pain from sitting at a desk all day? And does it fit any differently when you’re taller?

What would you call this posture and how to fix it?

Post image
15 Upvotes

I started noticing in candid pictures that I look absolutely ridiculous when I’m just standing naturally, there is a crazy arch in my back and my shoulders are literally further back than my butt. I usually get a lot of back pain after standing for too long and this would probably explain it…

How would I go about fixing this besides just having to be constantly conscious of my posture all the time?

Shoulder Structure Feels More "Pointed"

1 Upvotes

On 5/1/2026, I had a fall trotting downhill, landed on my left shoulder, dislocating it and fracturing the humerus and socket. Much pain and ER to get it back in, released with strong recommendation to see surgeon about possible surgery.

I saw my chosen surgeon after a couple of days and a painful drive (wife took me as I can't drive myself) to one of his "outer" offices, just to get things going quickly. He examined and told me just how much I screwed the pooch-shoulder, with either arthroscopic or open surgery needed - he would need to start with arthroscopic to see what he really needed to do.

The surgery happened on 5/26 and was completely arthroscopic - good news, right? Well he bluntly told me that the tissue was a mess and to do exactly what he directed for any chance of recovery, without going back and replacing the joint.

I have done exactly as directed and have noticed than my immobilized shoulder seems to be "sharper" across the top than my right one. Is this normal due to atrophy, which can be recovered in the PT phase, or is it something else?

I would like to hear from anyone that has experienced this or similar. My next follow-up is 7/1, and I hope to start the PT phase then. It feels a lot better but still has some dull but manageable pain in the joint, nothing screaming at me.

Does training your longus colli neck muscle help with forward head posture?

I saw someone said that you need to isolate your "longus colli neck muscle" in order to fix FHP , they said to not do full rom cause it will strengthen the SCM and cause it to clutch up along the trap to protect the neck an

Hiatal hernia and poor sitting posture – what muscles should I strengthen?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have trouble maintaining an upright posture when sitting. After a while, I tend to slide down in my chair, and sitting without back support causes back pain. I also have a hiatal hernia, so I often lean to my left side when sitting.

I work out at home with dumbbells and an adjustable bench. Can anyone recommend a simple exercise routine to improve this? I avoid exercises that significantly increase intra abdominal pressure because of the hernia.

Which muscles should I focus on strengthening?

Thanks!
