Two different compensating postures for positive sagittal imbalance. Compensation I occurs only by pelvic retroversion or hip extension without knee flexion. Compensation II occurs by knee flexion without pelvic retroversion or hip extension. It should be noted that although PT (dagger) in both compensatory postures appears similar, FPA (asterisk) increases in compensation I and decreases in compensation II
