Old Forum Question about proper Pavelizer use

[mcneuen]

Back in my reckless use  (aka 2011), I nearly put myself into the ground improperly using the Ab Pavelizer.   Specifically, I worked myself into having spasms in the low back, and playing Junior Anatomist, I guess the pain was in the miltifidus area. Finally this morning, I worked up the nerve to pull out the AP out again and try to figure out what i did wrong. I'm pretty sure the problem arose from going into posterior pelvic tilt as I worked to keep my low back on the floor, and then I magnified the problem by doing way too much volume right off the bat. (Ah, youth.)

My question: are there any cues to help keep put of posterior tilt, assuming that's a problem?

If you don't already have a copy, run out now and get HardStyle Abs.  It,s got the compete instructions.

thanks for the reminder Steve. I just reread that section of HSA. I guess it would be more correct to say I was overly tilted. I've also been working to rrestore curves to a flat spine.  That likely contributed.
