yeah you reading this. a reminder to stop slouching, keep your head and chest UP. if your posture/body is weak, go strengthen your abs, upper body, glutes and shoulders!!! bad posture can lead to serious health implications

Thanks OP I was just slouching on my chair before I clicked this thread

Was just on Amazon looking for posture correctors, don't know which one to pick though...

i'm not clued up about posture correctors. i've heard they're good but not to rely on them all the time to correct your posture. so maybe wear it a few hours a day

Yeah I've been reading up on things and saw that too, watch some videos on how to make your back and the back of head touch the wall at the same time. Harder than it looks.

That tilted waist disk thing is no joke, for overweight people, it really is a matter of your stomach literally pulling the rest of your body forward.

it's not easy at all to align your body the way it should be. takes a lot of hard work and conscious thought throughout a day.

fixing your posture is also a big advantage for your height

my posture is so ass man

face pulls/dead hangs

TML

I got scoliosis correction surgery. It fixed my curvature by 50%. I gained an inch in height but I guess I still technically have one more inside of me (pause)

I'm 6'7 now

how bad was your scoliosis? i have it in my torso area but it's not really noticeable

i miss face pulls

Think my curvature was originally like 60 degrees or something? Unfortunately I don't know the hardcore medical terminology to describe it, might be from T5 to L4. But my scar goes down almost the entire length of my back. I have 24 screws in my spine in between two 24-inch rods

i havent slept with a pillow in like 5-6 years. i believe that helped my posture and it also made my back and shoulder/neck area feel better when waking up

back in HS i used to get up with a constant stiff nick and upper shoulder aching. i would just end up rolling over in a bad sleep position. now i just lay flat on my bed without a pillow - it feels amazing

@bluenote talk to them

jheeze

Nigga Darth Vader.

Nigga on KTT worried about how my back bends

This is true

My posture is horrible

been trying for 2 years now

fixing your posture is a life long journey

started working out last year and it helped me start standing up straight.

hell yeah it's a lifestyle. the modern world is not designed for good posture. 9-5 office working, people always on their phones, playing computer games, etc. gotta counteract that with daily activity

What are some things I should try to pay attention to/focus on when standing to improve my posture?

Yeah my headaches most prob came from bad posture
