Also, if you want to avoid getting low back pain, or if you want to grow an inch or two taller, then keep reading.

Today we’re covering lordosis. I’m showing you how to do a home lordosis assessment so you can find out whether the curve in your lumbar area is ok, or “excessive”.

You can also use this assessment to measure whether you’re progressing posture-wise or not. As I share in the video below, last time I did it, my results were worse. This shows that what I’ve been doing to improve my posture in the past year has been working. I’m on the right track!

What is lordosis?

Lordosis is related to “anterior pelvic tilt”. You get this when your pelvis is leaning forward and your butt sticks out. This creates an excessive curve in your lower back area.

This position is commonly acquired by chronic bad sitting habits, and puts excessive strain on your low back. If you’re lifting weights or doing any type of exercise, you must be especially careful not to strain your low back.

Now, there are other causes for lordosis too, like osteoporosis, and discitis, and that’s why I recommend that if today’s home lordosis assessment shows that you got it, then pay a doctor a visit so that you get a professional opinion about what’s really going on.

Postural misalignments like lordosis are correlated to muscular imbalances. If you find out you have lordosis, then most probably your butt and abdominal muscles are weak and “lengthy”, while your hip flexors are “stiff”. To reverse lordosis, you’ll need to strengthen your butt and ab muscles, and stretch your hip flexors. But more on that, below.

How common is lordosis?

Oh my, it’s extremely common. If you spend a big part of your life sitting, like if you have a desk job, or study, then you probably have this. If you’ve found out that you have kyphosis, then your chances of having lordosis rise dramatically.

How do I know if I have lordosis?

Do this home lordosis assessment, and you’ll know!
