Fix Your Posture in No Time: The Ultimate Guide to Stretching and Strength Training
Upright posture is ESSENTIAL for human movement and participation in our activities of daily living
This mean we need good posture to make sure we can sleep well, cook food, put clothes on and do our daily exercise
The STRENGTH of the spine arises from its FOUR natural curves , cervical, thoracic, lumbar and sacral.
For muscles to work efficiently and maintain an upright posture , the THORACIC SPINE attains approximately 20-29 degree curvatures from childhood into our 3rd decade
When the curve is over 40 degrees, thats what its too curvy and is called hyperkyphosis
Hyperkyphosis increases graviites leverage on the spine and puts stress on the spine and muscles.
From the age of 20, over 1 in 3 people have hyperkyphosis and the rate only increases with age. The adverse effects with hyperkyphosis are
- pain
- slower gait
- reduced balance
- increased body sway
- increase risk of falls
Research looked into multiple studies and found that stretching the BACK EXTENSOR MUSCLES and lengthening the ANTERIOR CHEST MUSCLES lead to an improvement with patients hyperkyphosis
