How To Get Good Posture

[zeus7892]

excellent advise. thank you

[arseniyonline1234555]

this is real good, hardly anyone talks about sleep, i always sleep on my shoulders and stretch them out too much =-(

[killgroup]

I think I generally have a good posture, I stand up straight only my shoulders seem to tilt forward a little still (Considering I've recently lost 80lbs of mostly fat, that's probably why, body fat percentage is now 15.5%), it could also be down that I do a lot of road cycling and that requires me to be arched over. All I need to work on is sleeping on my back, will have to see about getting a cervical pillow.

i cant sit up straight... how despressing.

[OzzysFilmProductions]

what kind of therapist should I go to for my winged scapula and to work on posture. my guess would be a physiotherapist?

[dantefangirl14]

I have done the exercises and held my shoulders back and sat up straight for nearly two weeks and my back and shoulders ache so much and its still not natural because i have to hold myself there all the time, even sleeping on my back i force my shoulders back and down and its hard to sleep because im not relaxed. What am i doing wrong?

[IprototypeI]

merci beaucoup, Dr.Natalie...these were really helpful tips

[MulattaPride]

( Continued ) And it's not because I have a problem sleeping either .. my body just wants to do it naturally . I can't help it and if I try to help it then I can't get to sleep at all . I need FREEDOM when I sleep not rules and confinement like I'm in a sleep prison LOL

[postureconfidence]

@MulattaPride, Changing sleeping habits is very hard for some people. But to sleep on your spine is the most ideal and has given many people relief that they didn't know was possible from this simple change. Since this is not your choice, you can still find ways during the day to support your spine and help support your good posture.

[MulattaPride]

Um SORRY I cant fall a sleep on my back, believe me, I've tried, I always end up turning over to my stomach and I also don't stay in one position through the night either because staying in one position to long gets uncomfortable, It's like me tossing and turning is my refresh button, I need to refresh my sleep position periodically through the night .

[XoXoLaughoutloud]

Will this exercise also help tone your arms too? It seems like a great exercise that works all around for improving posture! :D

[postureconfidence]

@XoXoLaughoutloud That is a nice by-product! You do have your elbows bent and bicepts engaged to some degree.

[leonx360]

how do you sleep on your back?

[postureconfidence]

@leonx360 Sleeping on your back is the best position to support a healthy spine. For the neck, a cervical pillow is ideal. You could easily get from the internet or a back store. If you are comfortable in this position then lay straight and sleep tight. If you have issues in your low back or your hip flexors are tight (which is common), then add a small pillow under your knees. This takes the tension off of the psoas muscle and your lower spine. Hope this helps.

I don't think I've had an upright posture for one second during my lifetime.

[zawette]

Hi , i have a problem whit my back , its hunched

what do you recomend me to do ?

[TheDraykez]

I have pretty bad posture and I'm getting a lot of back pain, especially when I get in a car or lie down for bed. :c If I tell my GP, will he most likely help me to get a good posture?

[decannes]

thank you!

OMGHHKP , THAANKS YOOOU

[MegaJemster]

I sort of lean forward on my tipitoes because i cant balance standing straight. Im only 13 but i want to have a good posture

[papatoads]

I saw your program on line. Will that help me more than the youtube videos?

[sz42781]

I think I speak for alot of us when I say that I feel real self conscious about my posture sometimes. When trying sometimes it just feels forced and as if everyone can see I am making a conscious effort,maybe im doing it wrong or just might take my posture the wrong way. Anyone ever feel like that HAHAHA. Im in good shape, hit the gym 4-5 days a week.

[sonurajvideos]

thank u doctor..

[postureconfidence]

@ThePhantomLash Daily until you see results.

[h8tenonyou]

Haha i am 15 and in good shape but i feel healthier doing this

[Gizzmo653]

My posture sucks O.o

I'll try this thanks

[roselll1]

People who are top heavy have a hard time keeping their back erect. What do you recomment for them?

I find it easier to lean than to stand up straight because I'm top heavy. Like when i'm shopping, I'm always leaning over the shopping cart for support. My hips are about 3 inches in from my shoulders on each side.

[postureconfidence]

Your body's always going to try and move to the most pain-free position, even if it's not good for you in the long run. If you're top heavy, all the more reason to strengthen your posture muscles to give yourself the right muscular support.
