If this muscle is tight, it will drag on the bottom of the pelvis and encourage them to turn back. If it is around the low back tightness itself, this backward rotation is resisted by the rear and the growing burden will be taken up in and around the lower part of the spine or the sacro-iliac joint. This increased stress is likely to lead to low back pain. Continue Reading
