- Pelvic tilt (PT) imbalances are associated with injuries of the lower limbs and of the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex. There is a lack of evidence that correlates anterior and posterior PT angles with limited hip range of motion (HROM) and hip muscles torques ratios (HMTR). Purpose: to examine the correlation between anterior/posterior PT and HROM, hip flexors and extensors (HF/E) torque ratio, and hip adductors and abductors (HA/A) torque ratio. Methods: Twenty-six subjects participated in this study, fifteen females (22.0 ± 2.8 years old, 163.5 ± 7.5 cm, 65.9 ± 10.4 kg) and eleven males (22.0 ± 2.2 years old, 178.5 ± 4.5 cm, 78.4 ± 8.7 kg). Hip muscle torque were collected with an isokinetic dynamometer, five trials at 30 deg/s and at 60 deg/s. The measurement of both PT in standing natural position, and HROM in lunge position with right (RL) and left (LL) limb, were recorded through a Motion Analysis System. Results: There were no significant correlations between PT and the dependent variables: HIR (r=-.16, p=.43 RL, and r=-.02, p=.89 LL), HER (r=-.11, p=.58 RL, and r=-.25, p=.21 LL), HA/D at 30 deg/s (r=-.19 p=.34 RL, and r=-.17 p=.38 LL) and at 60 deg/s (r=-.13 p=.51 RL, and r=-.12 p=.55 LL), HF/E at 30 deg/s (r=32 p=.10 RL, and r=.06 p=.75 LL) and at 60 deg/s (r=-.7 p=.70 RL, and r=-.19 p=.33 LL). Conclusion: the measurement of PT angle in standing natural position is not a good predictor for the HROM and HMTR.
