  • i'm 100% certain i avoided injury by watching this, coz atm i have a shoulder problem coz my back is weak and they go way too much forward, so i constantly push or stretch them back, and for sure as soon as i saw this i arched my back WAY too much, so now i tense lower abs and bum and it's at perfect balance!

  • @shmurray7861 fail to prepare and you should prepare to fail. Your age people always feel bulletproof, look into posture, muscle imbalances and injuries now and you'll avoid them later!

  • hey, i had two nasty injuries coz of poor upper back, building it now, and stopped training my chest until i get a good balance

  • Really well explained!

    I've always had a VERY arched back, thanks to this i look about 2 inches taller and look like im alot thinner!

    thank you so much!

  • she like takes forever to get her point across! its annoying haha but still helpful.

  • @DdotTindall It depends on how you are "sitting up straight." If you are doing that through additional tension or compression, then the additional back pain is a signal you are making things worse. If you are relaxing into a balanced posture, then it could be temporary.

  • If the problem is excessively tight muscles, then trying to correct that by conscious additional tightening is fundamentally misguided.

  • when she made her stand up straight she looked like she had something stuck up her ass!!! lol

  • My doctor told me that to try to ignore the back pain i get when i sit up straight because my body isn't used to it, is this correct?

  • I think this video is dangerous. People will be walking round with their glutes tightened to the max. That isn't correct. Also, people will be tilting their pelvis inwards too much now after seeing this, which causes it's own problems.
