Alex Dalili on Instagram: "TECHNIQUE 👇🏻 On the inhale, tilt your pelvis forward, slightly arching your lower back, and open your knees outward. On the exhale, bring your pelvis back and draw your knees together. The movement should be light and slow, following the rhythm of deep breathing. This exercise improves blood circulation in the pelvic area and helps reduce the arch in the lower back. Breathing also positively affects the condition of the pelvic floor, naturally pulling in the abdomen.

Megan Dahlman on Instagram: "💥 FREE 5-Day Core Tune Up program! Type CORE in the comments ⬇️ and I’ll send you the link to my free 5-Day Core Tune Up program to safely strengthen your core muscles! 🙌 👉 Osteroporosis, especially in your lumbar spine, can be scary and dangerous. The last thing you want is to have fractures in your spine or even just deal with the fear of that happening. Building up the muscles that surround your lumber spine is the smartest thing for you to do!!! These 3 are some of the MOST EFFECTIVE core exercises for you to do: ✅ Dead bugs - Do 8-10 repetitions per side, alternating as you go, making sure to always keep your low back holding firm against the floor. ✅ Banded Anti-Rotation Press - Do 8-10 reps per side, pausing to exhale fully when extended ✅

Megan Dahlman on Instagram: "[BEST HACK EVER!!] It was a day FULL of cooking, baking, and then the inevitably long kitchen clean up…

I remember it well. 😫 The day before a big holiday, and the time spent in the kitchen was off the charts. By the time the last dish was scrubbed, my low back felt nearly locked up and the knot between my shoulders felt like the size of a softball.

UGH! (Been there, done that, felt that?)

Honestly, moments like this can make special times together in the kitchen downright miserable.

But this was years ago. Years before I knew this 👆 trick.

I’m quite a few years older, but my back and shoulders feel a million times better in these situations now.

Just by periodically…

Megan Dahlman on Instagram: "👋🏻 Raise your hand if your low back gets stiff and tight, if your hips feel achy, or even if you get deep throbbing pain in your hip socket (sciatica, SI Joint or piriformis syndrome)!

The Figure-4 stretch is an excellent move to keep handy for whenever you need a gentle release. ☺️ And in this video, I’m showing you 3 different ways that you can do it: seated, laying down, and even standing!

✅ Seated Figure-4: Great option all-around, especially if you want to stay dynamic and press in & out of the stretch

✅ Laying Figure-4: Idea if you have really bad back pain and your spine could use the extra support from the floor

✅ Standing Figure-4: A perfect solution for when you’re on your feet for long periods and your back begins to stiffen up 👍

Having this movement pattern ingrained in your body will prevent untold back issues, hip issues, and even serious injuries throughout the rest of your life! This move also spares any fragile lumbar vertebrae from excessive load. Tips to remember: ✅ Knees should be slightly bent - never locked out. ✅ Think about folding at the hip crease and then straightening back out by squeezing your glutes hard ✅ Move your torso as

You can also visit www.5dayglutes.com and get started right away!💥 If you’ve been dealing with knee pain, back pain or even hip pain 😩 … THEN YOUR GLUTES NEED MORE STRENGTH!! Your glute muscles are the big movers and workers on your body. And for most adults, they’re not even in the ballpark of being strong enough! And when they’re weak, EVERYTHING else has to overwork and compensate. 🙌 But we can change that in the just 5 short days. I’d love to help you overcome this instability and pain, and feel those glutes working again!! Get started on my free 5-Day Glute Builder today, and I’ll lead you through ~10 minute long videos (that you can even do in your pj’s at home!) to stren

Megan Dahlman on Instagram: "🦵 Losing muscle mass as you age (e.g. “Sarcopenia”), especially in your legs and lower body, is something you really want to avoid at all costs!! Have you heard of this? Is it on your mind? It should be!! Here are two of my hands-down favorite lower body muscle-building exercises that can really help: 1️⃣ Single Leg Dead Lift: Targets your hamstrings, glutes, and core 👍 2️⃣ Squat to Chair: Great for building quad and glute strength. Challenge yourself with single leg squats as you progress! 👉 Aim for 10-12 reps per side, and repeat for 2-3 sets. 💬 Tell me in the comments if these exercises help, and don’t forget to save this post for later! You’ve got this! 🙌 … #sarcopenia #beginnerfriendly #workoutsforwomen #bodyweightonly #athomeworkout #legex

James Moore on Instagram: "This helps treat symptoms of sciatica by helping stretch and release the glute muscles (piriformis muscle)! Since the sciatic nerve runs through the piriformis muscle, relaxing this muscles takes pressure off the sciatic nerve! Hold each stretch for 10 seconds and repeat up to 3x on each side! FOLLOW to be well! This is not medical advice! #viral"

Megan Dahlman on Instagram: "[👀 Watch til the end for modification options!] As we age, we lose mobility in our ankles, knees, hips, thoracic spine and shoulders the MOST. And with that lost mobility comes lost functionality and resilience to injury - not awesome! 👎 This move targets ALL of those spots at ONCE!! 🙋‍♀️ Personally, I’m adamant about maintaining as much mobility as possible as I get older, so my goal is to do a few reps of these deep squats with the reach every single day. And lately, I’ve been saying this to everyone I coach, too. Just do a few reps of this move daily and you’ll build back up any lost mobility and then be able to maintain it for years to come!!! 🙌 Be sure to use the modification options at the end to make it easier if you’re SUPER tight right now.
