Well I am not sure if not everyone can see your pics how useful would it be to explain it here, but anyway:
Sway back, with no significant misalignment of the pelvis and has not yet significantly affected the neck. Without examination, it's not possible to tell about the lower body imbalances as a number of things can be gone wrong with this alignment. A physio can tell it with examining.
It is obvious both deeper layer of lower abs and external obliques are super weak. Plank holds (the correct position to the every details) and side planks at this stage are very recommended. Hollow holds as well and when doing them do not worry about the fact that hip flexors are getting tired too.
Mid back deep spinal muscles are weak or very weak.Last edited by Anthony_gerio; 01-16-2021 at 05:58 AM.

Today I looked up signs of weak adductors, because I don't know if mine are weak or just tight (and maybe aren't very tight anymore). I tried the two tests it suggested and still couldn't tell, but as soon as I did it (lay on your side with top leg behind bottom one and raise bottom leg), I felt a painful muscle pull. Pain went away quickly but the same happens with the ball squeeze exercise. Started doing that occasionally during my personal training sessions, and I found I have to start out slow and without a strong squeeze, and warm up to a stronger one, otherwise I get a quick, uncomfortable pull in my groin. Does that indicate weakness? Or tightness?
Thanks
ooh also, focused on multifidus yesterday and that was helpful, to know to engage that muscle. I think before, I thought that any engagement of my back in that area was a bad thing (thinking my abs should be doing the job alone), so I would have intentionally avoided engaging it.... whoops...Last edited by venom888; 01-15-2021 at 05:57 PM.

Forgot mentioning to those who have problem with short breathing and stress on the upper back while having sex or even in day to day life, that forwarded head posture is a very big contributor.
Test it, have a light chin tuck, elongate the spine lightly and breath and compare it to your normal self.
