Neck and Shoulder Postural Exercise (ENGLISH)

[TheSUSHOB]

i occasionally get neck spasms when i wake up in the morning maybe due to bad sleeping posture...will u suggest a remedy on how to relieve these spasms fast...usually it lasts for about 3 days for me...i look like my s stuck on one side u know...

What is the best exercise to do if you have a kyfosis?

[BackInsight]

Don't forget to lengthen the spine and align the neck to become more upright. Balance the head atop the shoulders, ears above the shoulders. Once this position is achieved, let the sternocleidomastoid neck muscles pull up the clavicles and the sternum. The chest will rise allowing one to bring in more air, lifting the shoulders. Adding your exercises will help of course. I'm happy to see that many videos are directed toward fixing posture. It is a priceless entity. Grace and poise all!

Thanks alot brotha.

[TheYaom]

thank you so much, I 've been suffering from neck pain, chronic tightness on my neck and upper back and sometimes even strong headaches... I thought it was a tumor but I am realizing is head forward, with an x ray the doc told me my neck is straight and need some exercises to correct my neck muscles.

i am sure this can help!!!

[ruchirawat]

@TheYaom hey how is this exercise working for you? Did the doctor recommend you any treatment for straight neck ?

[TheYaom]

@ruchirawat it has been working good.... in realize that what has helped a lot is staying away from my laptop

[ruchirawat]

@TheYaom I wiosh I could stay away from my laptop but i work in media and online marketing and HAVE to be on my laptop. But i have started to do yoga and pilates. And will definitely do the "Neck and Shoulder Postural Exercise". Thanks for your reply.

[TheYaom]

@TheYaom stand up and move around every hour..... that will help you

Do you have lots of upper back pain, shoulder, headaches? because this is classical pain from people suffering from computer overuse, it becomes chronic like mine!

[MrJohnpressley]

this is a very good and effective exercise................thanks for posting this video brother............

[rolipolismochi]

I will start this today, thank you very much

[winterserenade]

Great! I was looking for something like this.

[dorianb2]

who hears the deathtone increasing slowly haha

[Kaytiger]

Weightlifters focus on "how many reps???!?!?" too much. This isn't a set shoulder exercise station, it's a stretch! Common sense Geeesh

[jmichaelb080]

@Kaytiger This is not technically a stretch. This is to help strengthen the muscles in the upper back and neck (primarily the trapezius, rhomboids, and maybe the levator scapulae)...try listening to the guy, he says that in the very beginning. It's an isometric contraction. The only stretching occurring is possibly in the chest and anterior delt and would be secondary to the contraction.

[MustacheVerra]

Good tip.

Thanks.

[shinymcbubbles]

Im glad that this exercise has worked for so many people...I am 6 foot 4 and weigh 142 pounds. I have reccurent shoulder subluxation in both shoulders.....but my bone structure in my chest has many bumps in it....and i have neck, shoulder, and back pain...I had surgery november 5th of last year on my right rotator cuff and it had failed!! please someone help me fix my broken posture

[c4rdsh4rk]

@shinymcbubbles 6'4 at 142? how old are you?  i assume you are male? maybe try bulking up with more muscle...

[cockstan]

It's working. Did it like you said 8 times a day, had a bad stiff neck next morning all day.

But felt better as each day passed.

[seanpaynedotnet]

This is a great video. I will perform this exercise regularly now, because of your instruction. Keep up the good work.

[Cwichita]

Thanks for the clear instruction.

[pnkpantherpolizzi]

Yeah I was wondering that also. Are we supposed to do a lot of them at once 8 times a day? Or what?

[vinja858]

I'm confused on that area as well...does anyone know the # of set / reps we should be doing??

Think the exercise is great btw and will definitely do it daily.thx

[RecordableID]

Thanks for this mate! It really softens up the neck =)

[goodgooglegoo]

Whoa ... this is awesome ...

man ... YouTube a success again.

It just gets better.

[Burlesquexxx]

I love it ! I actually felt an instant improvement. Thanks so much we throw our heads about so much that I am constantly cricking my neck. This is now a part of my daily routine x

[ceeIoc]

why would it take 5-10 mins? one of them takes 3 seconds, so 8 of them would take 24 seconds.  Or how many of them should you do to improve?

[raymondpsp]

man omg thank you so much it really helps

[t4ac3y1]

Amazing... just a few secs of this, and I've already felt some relief. Thanks for the video.

[jay473]

Great, hope this works since my neck does lean little fowrad...how long till we see improvments?

[dondantano]

thank you I do it now for a while and i see some improvements now thank you very much

[sussbaby]

[zoelu1125]

Good advice and good explanations. Makes me feel hopeful about my rounded shoulders!

[PirateXzibit]

Thanks for answering his comment, that is what I've been looking for :P

So you keep your arms hanging while lifting your shoulders with weights in your hands?

[stevieVantanna]

My upper back is big but, my neck is skinny. Will this build bigger neck muscles?

[stdio]

[clickboym2k]

my neck tends to lean forward to much and i have been looking for the right exercise to get back into good posture hopfully this does the trick. Thanks.

[dalesalsa]
