Are you tired of being told to sit up straight and pull your shoulders back to fix your rounded posture? In this video, we will discuss why these common fixes miss out on the most important factor when it comes to having a more upright posture. I will show you strategies that work to improve your rounded shoulders. Did you know that a more slouched posture is an efficient strategy to breathe? However, it can lead to negative health effects such as mouth breathing. The legit fix for rounded shoulders is to expand the front of the chest to have a dynamic ribcage. We will go through a sequence of exercises to help open up the hips and chest to reduce rounded shoulders. Join me and let's improve your posture for good!
