How to Fix Butt-wink?

According to people I’ve had assess me, it appears that the APT is present as soon as I stand up with the bar. Due to tight hip flexors/low back muscles, once I reach depth, my hips have nowhere to go but into posterior pelvic tilt. However, I will work on my bracing for sure as well as a lot more stretching prior to squats.

If it’s only present when you’re under the bar it’s a bracing and technique issue, not a true postural variation. It’s important to figure out which one it is, as we want to minimise time spent

as much as possible.

Side note: stretching isn’t always effective to correct an APT, and generally it’s targeted exercise that returns bigger benefits
