Sit Up Straight Boy!

Does this look like you?  Shoulders rolled in, neck plunged forward, upper back hunched?  Not a good look.  Bad posture is incredibly noticeable and reflects badly how you carry yourself.  One of the definitions of posture is “one’s image as perceived by the public.”  Every time I see someone with really bad posture I just want to stick my foot in the middle of their back and grab their arms at the elbow and pull their shoulders back.  Do you know anyone with charisma, confidence, and power with a hunched back?  I didn’t think so.

Bad habits are hard to break but this is an important one to work on.  Get an ergo assessment at your workplace.  They should be offered in the workplace where they set up your workstation correctly.  Some good ways to break the bad posture habits is sit on a yoga ball instead of a regular office chair.  You can’t really slump on a ball and it keeps you active and works on your core.  I highly recommend doing yoga just once a week to keep you flexible but it also helps with your posture.  Plus you get to check out a class of hot chicks that can bend in all sorts of ways.
