My posture is terrible

[JohnStarksMiddleFinger]

Man I saw picture and it had me like

I need to correct this ASAP

Anybody got a good book routine they can reccomend

Look into Pilates, it will improve your posture guaranteed. I started it after my lifts got heavier and needed some serious stretching and not just the usual quick stretch before and after. Glad I got the Pilates book as a gift, thought it was some ladies only thing.

Pilates: It puts emphasis on spinal and pelvic alignment, breathing, and developing a strong core or center, and improving coordination and balance.




Not to be on some Macho bullshyt, but I always thought that was for women working on their figure

But that's perfect, any other core exercises I use with this?

Sit and stand straight and walk with your head up eventually it will be second nature

That's what I'm working on now, but it feels so unnatural. I never noticed how bad it was.

I thought a out getting a brace

But a 22 year old with a back brave makes me feel

But something's gotta be done

Luckily i had a teacher in like the second grade who told me to keep my head up when walking.

It also creates a prescence if you keep your head straight and walk with long strides. When you work out keep your head up looking straight and back straight as well that makes a difference.

But its just a self concious thing you have to keep reminding yourself to do it will become comfortable don't ever slouch

also work on back bridges do them a couple of minutes every day to correct the arch in your back and prevent future back injuries

Yoga, and a boost of confidence will do the trick.

do a bunch of band pullaparts too.

this more or less

no homo but roll your hips forward more too(pelvic tilt) while bracing your abs

 

[TYBG]

Deadlifts and yoga. IMO, pilates tries to give you more of a workout while yoga is more concentrated on core and flexibility

Should be doing dl, bench, squats, rows, etc.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Theres a few things you can do in the gym

- Rear delt rows
- Rear delt raises
- Hyperextensions w/the weight held over your head
- Chest stretches
- Resistance band exercises

 

[Constantine]

Do pushups. If you get tired of them switch to diamond pushups. They streghten your back muscles. Do them for around and you'll start to feel your posture change.

 

[Northern Son]

kettle bell squats

 

[Xtraz2]

work out your back

and most importantly your core
