Improving posture

My back got a lot better after lifting and consciously lining myself up. Then I saw a picture of myself and realized my neck posture is really bad. I’m just trying to make myself conscious of it as much as possible so I can straighten it out. Maybe take pictures/video of yourself from multiple angles?

Yes.

Lots of lower trap work. Stretch our upper abdominal region. Strengthen erector spinar ad rhomboids too to pull the shoulder blades back.

Be confident with exposing your chest. Bitches love good posture and seeing a guy being able to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders 😉

I hang from a pipe at work every day. When I first started getting my shit together it was one of the best things I did. My posture improved and a lot of little things improved because my posture was better

I’ve spent quite a monumental effort the last 5+ years resolving postural issues and chronic tension, aches and pains. I’ve sought out the very best help and the most cutting edge knowledge available on physical therapy in order to do so. Good posture is not about “keeping a straight back” or “keeping your shoulders back.” Thats a bad cue that usually causes one to flare their ribs, which is the complete opposite of what you want. That sounds like how you’re describing your typical posture now with puffed out chest.

yoga is really good

Imagine there is a glass of water on your sternum. Make sure the water doesn’t spill out of the glass. Shoulders relaxed. They naturally fall back in their organic position. Back of the neck needs to have a straight line. Constrict abdominal region.

Everything else falls into place if you do these 3 things everyday.
