Standing Pelvic Tilt

What it is

This isolation exercise focuses on subtle spinal articulation and control of your lower back muscles. You will learn to tilt your pelvis, engaging both your lower back and glutes for foundational body awareness. This static movement helps build core stability and prepare you for more complex exercises.

Technique tips

• Stand with your feet hip-width apart and knees slightly bent.
• Gently tuck your tailbone under, feeling your lower back lengthen.
• Engage your glutes slightly as you hold the forward tilt.
• Focus on isolating the movement to your pelvis, not your entire torso.
• Breathe smoothly and deeply through each repetition.

How to track your progress
