5/23/2012 10:31:01 PM Report AbuseDid the person writing these descriptions go to school? You are using incorrect terminology for pelvic tilts. If the pelvis tilts anteriorly or forward, the low back gets an increase in the amount of arch. If the pelvis tilts posteriorly or backward, the low back flattens or as you say "gets rounder".

5/24/2011 12:46:14 PM Report Abusewhat ab exercises r best on the stability ball to lose baby fat?
5/24/2011 12:45:24 PM Report AbuseNice exercises and - as I agree to greatgranny91 - no pain in the neck! But it would be great to add "reversed" exercises here, which complement these ones. I'm talking about back exercises, e.g. like a Superman: http://www.stomachfat.com/ARTICLES/Health/Exercises/Superman.html (sorry, I forgot it's yogic name on Sanskrit). Because, you know, after a bunch of ab exercises it feels harmoniously to complement it with back muscles tension. You should write another article about it!
