Well, you could always stop working out and get fat.

meaning that your ass sits lower than your legs?

So it's the other way? Like there is too much tilt or what?

It's not while I'm sitting. Tight hip flexors pull the front of the hips forward resulting in an exaggerated lumbar curve and, in my case, lower back pain.

I see. And quad rolls are like lunges or what?

Anybody every tried a versa climber?

The condition causes hip flexors, quads, and lower back to tighten up and become overactive. Glutes, and hammies become dormant and it gets tricky to activate them so the quads and back take over.

Lunges, bridges, and deep squats strengthen glutes and hammies and get them firing again. The foam roller is used to relax and lengthen the quads, hip flexors and lower back.

If you're really curious about it I can post some links with a lot of information.

I would add Romanian deadlifts to that list as well.

Um yea, and it was hard as shit! Max like 10 minutes. Of course I rarely do cardio so maybe that was it?

I plan to. Right now my back tries to take over and that ****s me up. I have a pretty bad muscle imbalance. I'm getting there, though.

I am gonna take a shot in the dark. You were a leg press/leg extension king and neglected squats/deads?
