Posterior Pelvic Tilt
Do you have any advice to get rid of Posterior Pelvic Tilt? I don't know how to even get started with it.

I figure some body weight exercises to help strengthen and stabilise your core muscles could help.
Look up the McGill big 3 stretches and try doing variations of the plank to see if it helps neutralise your posture over time
If your lower back muscles are tight, baby pose or knees-to-chest might help ease that off.
Your posterior chain muscles will kind of compensate for each other; if you sit a lot (I.e. at a desk job), your hamstrings will tighten over time, which can lead to sore knees and a stiff back.
Static and dynamic stretches for your hamstrings are great. I generally for for a standing stretch with one leg raised to a platform at hip level and hold / gently lean into it for 30s each side.
Glute bridge is also a good way to activate muscles that can become somewhat dormant behind a desk.
Thanks a lot for this. Super helpful! I have been doing a couple of hamstring stretches, but I will add all this to my routine. I think I do need to strengthen my core muscles quite a bit
very welcome. Hope it helps. I try to do everything I've mentioned before bed (along with a handful of others), though ideally I'd me doing them more often than that.
