I notice my back is kind of curved if i dont conciously try to make it straight.... even then it looks weird coz it looks like im puffing my chest out or something
is there any way for my to improve my posture so it will normally sit straight?

[sushiwhore]

stretching or yoga that helps....

[jennnayx81]

work on your core (stomach, back muscles), once you strengthen your core, your posture will naturally straighten.

[sulfuric_ACID]

yeah what sushiwhore said, yoga really helps. stretching on a gym ball, that is good

[oreoo]

Lol my cousin has a problem like yours.

His mom (my aunt) yells anytime he doesn't sit straight.. XD lol

i slouch in my chair

[kinesis]

my slouching got pretty bad so my dad bought me one of these things



yeah i think it's mostly for older people with serious back problems, but it still helped me correct my posture and awareness of my own slouching. i should start using it again

[moor]

yes i slouch too. so i used a shoulder guard to straigthen my posture. Looks similar to the pic kinesis posted. But without the waist part.

[guwakmui916]

put ur back and shoulders flat against the wall in a sitting position...and move up and down about 10 times everyday....and then try to keep ur back straight with out the wall....

[cornxflakes]

Yoga definitely helps, should try it out

[annyong]

try doing some excersise like walking or jogging. thats what i did and it straightened my back out. you should have seen it before, it was pretty slouchy. but now it seems pretty good

[IaMsEo]

i slouch alot sometimes...that's really a bad habit. so my sister told me to basically sit straight when sitting on a chair..

[ayakonguyen]

my mom yells at me when i do that.

she just tells me to sit / stand up straight whenever i sit / stand or else i die from her.

[BAN`CHAN]

i found that i always slouch too! such a bad habit to get into..
i just try to sit straight in my chair but i always tend to forget after a while.

[Rainie_Days]

If you sit on an office chair, I suggest you put a pillow behind your back ^^ That's what I do and it does help. Also, you might want to adjust you chair a bit, so when you sit, your eyes are facing the top of your computer screen when you look straight.

[mnmadi]

I hold my hands together behind my back, fingers pointing upwards, touching the middle of my back. I can feel my shoulders pull back. I do while walking on the treadmill sometimes. It really keeps me from slouching

Get one of those big exercise balls and substitute it for your chair. For example, instead of sitting at your desk while you're on your computer on a chair, you will sit on the ball. Because you have to work on your balance by sitting on the ball, your posture will naturally improve. It's worked for a whole bunch of my friends.

[Chiisu]

Try a balance board... i had to use it for another erason but it helped my posture too..... also good for balance

[ykidkwis]

i have kind of bad posture too but lately its been improving because i've switched to those tempurpedic mattresses...its so comfortable and its really helped to straighten my back!
