Once more the problem is thatpeople already have too much length in their abdominals –especially at the lower portion where they join the pelvis. Soas we keep stretching this area we take away the last vestiges of stability from people leaving their pelvis / lumbar areaincreasingly unstable. As my pelvis dips downwards at thefront (anterior tilt) then my abs stretch to allow this, and thestretch on my hip flexors – especially rectus femoris – decreases because it also attaches to my pelvis but from theleg end. So it becomes an ab stretch instead of a hip flexorstretch – and no one needs their abs stretching!58 AMRITA Issue 6 / Spring 2021
