Posture Improvement - How to Fix Poor Posture Part 2 - Stretches

[burritomaker69]

I am young and I believe still growing, will posture exercises such as these help or encourage my growing?

@burritomaker69 There is no way of knowing for certain. However - doing these exercises would be great because if you can practice good posture when you are young you will be in great shape when you're older!

i find it a bit uncomfortable to sit up straight, is this because i need to strengthen my back?

[HybridDrJ]

@missXamiee Obviously hard to say without performing a thorough health assessment. That being said - many people find that after years of slouching it is hard to sit-up straight. That is usually because the muscles aren't used to holding you in that position. In that cause - yes strengthening exercises can help.

@herbaissimo Haha - Don't envy me to much - I can still be caught slouching now and then! The key is to catch yourself and correct it. :-)
