Posture exercise while standing

December 6th, 2007

This is a simple back pain exercise to improve your posture while standing.

Stand with your feet slightly spread, about shoulder’s width. Divide your weight equally and keep your knees relaxed, don’t overstretch them.

Lengthen yourself as if you were hanging from a wire on the top of your head. Tighten yor abs slightly to support the lower back.

Keep your shoulders backwards and low so your chest moves a bit forward.

You should remain a relaxed feeling and avoid tension in your back muscles.
