What is imprint?
An imprinted position combines a slight posterior pelvic tilt with slight lumbar flexion. The normal curve of the lumbar spine lengthens toward flexion by engaging the oblique abdominals to approximate the pelvis and the rib cage anteriorly. When supine, the p***c bone may be slightly higher than the ASIS. The pelvis is not so tilted that the sacrum curls off or loses contact with the Mat.

It is not necessary to press the lower back all the way into the Mat or to tuck under by overusing the re**us abdominis and gluteal muscles as this may decrease stability.

The degree of contact between the lumbar spine and the Mat will differ from person to person.

An imprinted position should be used to ensure stability of the pelvis and lumbar spine, if neutral alignment cannot be stabilized. When there is weakness in the obliques and other abdominals, placing them in this slightly shortened position can help maintain their engagement. This will often be useful when certain postural tendencies are present (for example, lordosis). When the lower limbs are secure on the Mat or other apparatus in a closed kinetic chain, the pelvis and lumbar spine are ideally neutral.

Performing an open kinetic chain exercise with the pelvis and lumbar spine in an imprinted position will increase stabilization. Once enough strength has been developed through the abdominal muscles to achieve stability, a neutral position can be maintained in an open kinetic chain.

1st lesson 15 min postural analysis to figure out what the best approach will be for you specifically
The body functions at its best when it's in correct posture. When the body is in correct postural alignment, it moves evenly and distributes weight appropriately. The muscles, joints and spine work together help you perform your best at any sport without pain. If something is out of alignment, injury can occur and you'll have to spend time recovering from the injury.
