Here's a little move that can have a big effect! The Pelvic Tilt How to do it: ... Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart, with a micro bend in your knees.

How it helps: Pelvic tilts help to alleviate back pain, reducing stiffness in the lower back and stretching the muscles. They also strengthen the abs and glutes! #chooseMOTION
