Looking to Improve Your Posture?
Looking for better posture?
This video is for you if you sit a lot and are looking to improve your posture to prevent your forward hump in your mid-back.
Easy stretch for your chest to help with rounded shoulders and back pain
Do you have neck pain, shoulder pain, numbness, or tingling down your arms?
This exercise could help.
This is the pectoralis doorway stretch. We suggest you do both arms and you can do one arm at a time or you can do them together. We hold all stretches for 30 seconds in an uncomfortable position, but not a painful position. The pec or chest muscles have 3 different angles of muscle fibers, so we must stretch at a 90-degree angle, as well as a 45-degree angle upward and downward.
Simple shoulder blade strengthening exercise to help with neck and shoulder pain
This exercise is the shoulder blade squeeze with an exercise band to help to strengthen to prevent and relieve rib and shoulder pain. This is one of my favourite exercises that I do as a warm up before I lift weights in the gym.
It helps to reduce the head forward and shoulder forward position. And with all of us working at home, online schooling and spending so much time on our phones, this is so important to work on.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes!
