===================================

Most people aren’t even aware that they’re developing this problem!

If you spend a lot of time looking down at your phone or working on a computer, you might be developing a “rounded shoulders” and “forward head” posture.

This is an issue that develops slowly over time and most people aren’t even aware that they have it until discomfort and pain start to settle in.

Headache, neck pain, tension and knots in their upper traps, and pain between their shoulder blades are long-term issues that can develop if this issue isn’t addressed.

In this video I’ll show you five simple stretches to “un-round” your shoulders, straighten up your posture, and help you out of some of the discomfort you might be experiencing.

CAN EXERCISE CORRECT POSTURE?
Poor posture is often developed over time as we hold our body in “less-than-optimal” positions. This includes sitting at work, looking at a phone, etc.

We develop tightness in some areas and weakness in others that eventually hold us in these “poor posture” positions and open the gateway for pain to creep in.

Luckily, the right stretches to muscles that are tight and the right strengthening exercises to muscles that are weak can help straighten up your posture and alleviate pain!

WHAT EXERCISES FIX BAD POSTURE?
When we’re referring to the posture in your neck, shoulders, and upper back, the structures that get tight are your pec major, pec minor, subscapularis, and thoracic spine. The proper stretching to these areas will help correct your posture, “un-round” your shoulders, and help you to look and feel better!

These exercises are the most important ones for a society of cellphone users.

[sandraczy]

These are great. Thank you. At. 67 Ive been working on my posture for nearly 5 months. Physio yoga core and constantly being aware is starting to make a difference.

[rwbower]

I will add these to my routine. After trying so many other things I’ve corrected most of my bad posture issues by doing various shoulder exercises with dumbbells. Nothing too heavy. The bent over shoulder row along with a few other weighted shoulder exercises has really helped. I will definitely add what you showed us here to what I’m already doing.

Thank you very much! I have a problem with posture and a crooked back. I recently decided to do something about it and I exercise for half an hour every day. After a month I see a slight improvement! I will definitely add your exercises to my routine.

Thank you for continuing to demonstrate the exercises while your voice over is explaining them. Definitely more efficient for viewing and understanding the range of motions and why it helps. 👍🏻

[TrevorGintheplaceBe]

These videos are so helpful, thank you. Im curious what activities/sports you would recommend to maintain healthy mobility. Like, besides stretching and conditioning, what are some good activities that would go alongside these PT modules?
Thanks so much for what you do, you’re doing a great job!

Absolutely brilliant as always Jared - very helpful and so well explained.

Hi, I will try these. These alleviate the radial nerve too. Nonetheless, I have always had forward rounded shoulders, and as a teen I had the showing bone behind the shoulder on the back.
