No, all you need to do if fire up the rhomboid and trapezius , work on infraspinatus and supraspinatus , rear deltoid and all that exists around the scapula. Get very very light sandbag and fire up them muscles around the scapula in different positions, did this for 6 months and fixed a pretty bad kifosis.
I had a rounded posture for 12 years in school because I was the tallest kid in my class by far. The thing that helped me get a good posture was training on the bars - mainly pull-ups. I managed to fix my posture with pull-ups in like 1 month. And we were doing only pull-ups and dips, nothing else.
@@godlysense9065 you could do the back machines at the gym. I can’t do pull up either. Any work out that targets your back works. also need to look at your glute and leg muscles. Sometimes that isn’t strong enough to support our full upper weight which also adds to posture problems.
@@Domenicaaajay yeah, I had the advantage of having strong lower body, but my upper body was a weak point. And I fixed it somewhat at the bars. But, I wouldn't really advise the gym. I would still advise to go to the bars and do progressive steps to pull-ups, like Australian rows or negative pull-ups.
@@godlysense9065Well for me. Deadlifts helped my posture. I noticed my back was hurting after setting a pr for squats. (There were other problems too but that's another issue.) I hadn't done deadlifts since high school football and most of the things I learned there were with bad form. Coming back after all that time with correct form, and, admittedly, me lowkey overworking myself since I wanted to see how far I had come after highschool, I was horrendously sore because my lower back was indeed underdeveloped compared to the rest of my body. This was the most important part for me. It was the worst soreness I ever experienced but not completely unbearable. It forced me to either fix my posture or suffer a lot of pain for about 3 days until the soreness subsided. Been walking with my back straight and my chest out ever since.
After my wife and I bought our small farm, we hired a personal trainer to help us build strength safely. It is amazing one year later how much good posture and proper lifting techniques have changed the way we live. I no longer wake up with neck pain, I no longer have lower back pain, etc.
I suppose owning a farm you really notice all the bodily aches and stiffness even more so with all the work you do, so it must be amazing to not experience all that anymore :)
@@TrumpTrain911 It's a one minute video and you couldn't even watch the whole thing before leaving that dumbass comment? What do you think "building stability" means?
The best way to fix posture for good is to start exercising the core and the back especially. Once you develop the back muscles with pull ups and the core to support you, back pain and bad posture go away on their own. Also arm hanging from a bar is such an underutilized exercise in today's day and age.
@@robbiescheers9643 I can also guarantee you that it’s due to my anatomical nature. You’d be surprised if you took a look at my shoulder blades with arm length out. One is higher than the other, sort of pushed in.
I have a strong back and have been working out for a while but still have poor posture. I have developed muscles but still sometimes get back pain and have trouble maintaining good posture subconsciously
OMG! I can't take it anymore. 😪 I have bilateral rotator and SLAP tears and bilateral foot and ankle injuries all required surgery, and now my spine collapsed. I had a work accident ruin me and watching your videos are so good and I wish I had someone that understood the dynamics around my injuries and mobility restrictions and abilities. I've always took care of my vody and was elite level before I was hurt. I would do anything to consult with you!
I know a therapist who can help u cuz he did help me and now I'm living a good healthy life full of energy I'm still doing strengthing exercise i'am getting stronger every day
Man I struggled with that for YEARS till I finally realized on my own that having broad or tight pecs can physically pull your shoulders forward. You're the first person I've ever heard talk about pecs in relation to posture
Dude, just, thank you for giving a straightforward, effective, sustainable rundown of maintaining body health. Been watching your videos for a while, and the succinct, yet in depth understanding you provide behind the advice has been insanely helpful. Just wanted to express my gratitude!
This can work yes, but is a difficult mind thing, and also doesnt strenghen your body that much, hence not adressing the issue at hand Work out your core strenght!! Your body WANTS to bw in good posture. I ve found after worning out my back that my body automticaly pulles my Back straight and i have proper posture since
Fun Fact: This is also how many little ballerinas are taught how to sit up tall and lift onto their toes! The idea that you are a puppet with a string pulling you up clicks for all ages
Fun fact posture doesn’t actually matter that much, having a weak body matters more. Strengthening your muscles for your back, core, shoulders etc. actually is what makes pain go away it’s not the posture itself. If you don’t believe me look into it.
Doc, have you considered forward head posture reduction via strengthening deep cervical neck muscles? That is also a hugeee factor in hyperkyphosis or weakness in posture
Thanks for the exercise. Been doing it but didn't know about arching my back. I usually brace my hands against the wall and lever my torso down. Broke multiple chirp wheels like that.
Honestly really surprised with how much he knows like I have seen a lot of videos of his and I am not sure if it is all true and correct but so far seems pretty damn true. Crazy to know all this stuff that could benefit you physically so much.
There are less trainers like you who concentrate on how to use your body and how to get good results instead the most trainers fixetated on the beauty standards❤
Want another good tip? Here's how my chiropractor visualised it for me. Imagine a thread is connected to the top of your head, and the other end to a cloud above you that gently tugs on it. Follow the thread with your head and spine, but remember that the cloud is gently lifting, not firmly or hard :) For me, understanding comes from visualisation, and i hope this can help you too.
Apparently kettlebells are good both for improving your core stability as well as your posture. I kinda need both, so I will definitely try to incorporate them into my workouts
That foam roller stretch is no joke. Most of us probably will have trouble and realize how tight our muscles are. I use a foam roller for back pain and it’s such a great tool to have!
I've been to the opposite end of this, where I wpuld arch my back too far and had my butt stick out, which is only further enabled by the unnatural amounts of chair sitting involved in our modern routines. I'm currently trying to reverse it by actively pushing my oelvis forward every time I i catch myself, and actively overcorrecting is a good way to build a habit that becomes subconscious.
I had a bad posture I training calisthenics for 6 months and everyone that i know told me that my posture got amazing without even trying
10 месяцев назад
I accidentally discovered the loaded carries improved my posture while running some chores the other day. I'll train those more intentionally from now on, THANKS!
Also, face pull rows etc for weakened back muscles. I personally found, that that was the thing that killed my protracted scapular. Also remember to strengthen your neck and glutes
i’ve been avoiding working on my posture but i’ve been having the worst chronic pain bout of my life and this really isn’t aiding it at all haha. i wish gym memberships weren’t so expensive.. at least the ones i want to go to 😅
As a very old physio I am always surprised why the profession never twigs to the most common cause of bad posture, stiff T spine etc. This is my test: sit on the plinth side, flatten lordosis, lift 1 arm above head shrugging that shoulder, side flex to the opposite side with about 15 degrees flexion until your elbow hits the bed. If your buttock lifts on the convex side your lats are too tight. The biggest muscle in the trunk goes from the ant shoulder to post pelvis..It pulls you down into bad posture with its resting tone..then it gets short...then the rest happens. Your thoracic extensors will never win when the much bigger muscle is too short...
The whole reason I have bad posture is because of school!! Those tiny desks don’t do anyone good. When you’re bent over a desk for seven hours a day, it tends to put a curve in your spine… I’ve since been doing exercises and maintaining a good routine, which has significantly improved my posture.
I personally suffer from anterior pelvic tilt which is a bad posture due to tight and weakened muscles, and anterior pelvic tilt causes me to have rounded back as well. So i need to strengthen my core and then my upper body. Condition like this is called lower and upper cross syndrome
Oh yeah, back (and chest) exercises, given the proper technique, does wonders for posture. And shoulders, but underdeveloped chest can be overcome if shoulders take over 😸
it's so hard to isolate the thoracic spine in these exercises though. my lumbar spine is trying to do everything. i think what helps is to fully extend one leg to force your lumbar spine to be straight
i do all of these for pt w a thoracic spine injury that resulted in rounded shoulders. the only difference is that i do the first one in a chair instead of laying down so i can’t accidentally engage my lower back and take away from mid back
I got rid of my bed and started sleeping on the carpet floor. I only sleep on my back fully extended and straight with neck flat on the ground. it did wonders for my forward shoulder posture, forward neck, and rounded spine. all straight now.
Mine sucks. I'm working on it along with physical therapy. Scoliosis is why my posture is horrendous. The main reason is I broke my back in 4 places. This led to DDD along with too many conditions to list right now.
This is why mu shoulders are good. I enjoy walking to and from the grocery store with about 30+lbs of food in bags. I do this kind if thing weekly in addition to my normal workouts.
Sir I think my bad posture is due to a slight deviation in my spine, I didn’t get an x-ray diagnosis but my shoulders are slightly uneven and I hear pain-free poping sounds in my back when I move my left arm. Can you make content about this please 🙏
Oh my GOD no one listens when i tell them my back hurts and is so stiff now because i dont have the chairs they had in school. Elementary to Middle school they only had these blue rubbery chairs and you could really lean your upper back in them. If you think cracking your spine feels great it doesn't hold a candle to these freaking chairs. You could basically crack your upper back on them it was great, and so relaxing you could just slide to the floor like a ferret, really rolling the whole spine on the way down. It sounds bad how i describe it but it was the best thing for that random back stiffness. Im older and taller now but even a chair of the right size wouldn't have the rubbery flexibility of those fantastic chairs. Sorry for the nonsensical rant but the stretches she was doing in this video just reminded me.
I understand all of this, but shit, why is it so uncomfortable to walk/sit straight? It feels unnatural. A doctor once tried to make my posture better and it was the worst feeling ever, idk how people manage to live like this.
I just stand really close to a wall so that my spine straightens. Then I notice the change in the lower part of the spine closer to the pelvis. I only fix that part whenever I'm slouching. Easy, quick, works for me.
When I was an early teenager, my grandmother used to tell me to stand up straight all the time. One day I just got pissed off and pulled my shoulders and neck back as far a they would go. I heard a series off pops on my sturnum. It's that plate of bone that over the heart. It gets thicker over time. It didn't hurt, but I broke that thin plate. After that, there was nothing pulling back into a slouched position. I naturally stood straight from them on.
Wanna skip the fancy words? Stand still, roll your shoulders forward as far as they go, up as far as they go, backwards as far as they go, carry heavy stuff in this position and train the muscles that exercise this position. Problem solved.
I have a bad habit of slouching. It’s because of how often I slouch that I developed musculoskeletal chest pain due to my bad posture. I’m trying to sit up straighter and improve my posture but it’s still hard because slouching is so comfortable.
I had a kinda bad posture when i was younger (im 20 currently) to fix this i needed to constantly think about my posture so that every time it was bad i'd correct myself and after some time it got better and better so now every time i walk or stand i have a near perfect posture!
Tbh my resting posture got fixed when I started working out. Mostly due to bench press and similar movements. My theory is that arching my back during those movements fixed my resting back posture. Idk tho
Shout out Cookie King for the opening stitched video!
No, all you need to do if fire up the rhomboid and trapezius , work on infraspinatus and supraspinatus , rear deltoid and all that exists around the scapula. Get very very light sandbag and fire up them muscles around the scapula in different positions, did this for 6 months and fixed a pretty bad kifosis.

Also doing face pulls, rear delt work outs and excersizes like dips correct this….. strong back equals strong body
