    Guys, what exercises should I NOT do at the gym that can make my hardflaccid and my anterior pelvic tilt worse?

    If possible, which exercises are recommended only?

    Thank you!

      Hi dae1...

      Please don't bump threads. Per our PE Code:

Please refrain from bumping your post unless it's gone unanswered and it's off the first page. If your message is truly urgent, please put "Urgent" or something similar in your subject line. For urgent issues you can also contact one of the senior/experienced members, moderators, or administrators to assist you.

      No "cross posting"; to be posting the same thing in multiple places. Forum operators do not like this happening, it makes indexing a messy operation. Do NOT do this !

        I'd say you should be careful with deadlifts & squats until you fix your anterior pelvic tilt because it can affect your ability to maintain a neutral spine.

        You're probably already doing hip-flexor stretches (i.e. pigeon pose) to help fix the problem, but if you're anything like me then it won't be enough. What I've found works absolute wonders is using the a decline sit-up bench. Set it sharpest angle, lock your legs into place and squeeze your legs and glutes tightly. If you feel a stretch around the hip-flexor area then the muscles are being activated. Now go ahead and do some sit-ups slowly, focusing on the lower-core/hip flexors.

        This is one of the best ways I've found to actually strengthen them, and I've been trying to sort out my hip flexors for about 4-5 years now. Despite training for over 6 years (2 of them being strength training), I could never really activate my lower core because of my weak hip-flexors, no matter what I did. Since I started doing the above variation of sit-ups in combination to using abductor & adductor machines (reactive glutes), I can now actually train my lower core -- a HUGE factor in actually preventing hyper-lordosis (anterior-pelvic tilt).

        Give it a go and see how you feel.

          But did you have ED or hard flaccid? How did correcting your previous pelvic tilt help with your sexual problems? Is there any correlation in your case?

            ED that I'm still working on. I'm still working on reverse kegels but I should hopefully fix the issues within a month or two
