@coconut23 I work for a major call center for a very large network storage company so i sit in an office with cubes all day. We are provided very poor chairs so im always catching myself sitting poorly. Lately ive been trying to get up and stretch every hour otherwise i go insane in my chair. These steps are good to follow.

@coconut23 Maybe adding stretching neck to the side, so trying to make your left ear touch your left shoulder, to stretch out the right Trap muscle

@coconut23 What I do is day 9 of Gabo Saturno. I recommend his 10 day yofa challenge

@coconut23 I didn't even look at it in detail yet, but regardless -- I am impressed by the amount of work you put in your posts, and that you do it all for free. I hope there will be a part 2 to your strength program soon, too! Thanks a lot!

@coconut23 Is it safe to do this every day if we are doing the Recommended Routine?

@coconut23 You still never answered me. What is your certification you’re basing this on?

@coconut23 This is an amazing example of how it should work. Many thanks for that informative review. But for myself I prefer to use several exercise with equipment. For example, jump rope or pilates circles & etc. Recently read this article -https://askyourfitnessquestion.com/top-5-best-jumping-stilts-on-amazon

@coconut23 What a load of quackery.
Exercise is good.
Prescribing specific exercises to try and prevent and correct posture to everyone is not backed by any research.
There is 0 need to do this specific routine to "prevent" and "correct" anything. Anterior pelvic tilt is not a diagnosis, rounded shoulders is not a disease.
If some posture or habit is hindering performance; or you experience discomfort because of it, than sure, change it and do some specific excercise. If not- just exercise and do stuff that YOU like (and perform a good training program).

If anyone tells you differently, ask them to provide good scientific evidence that prescribing a "program for posture correction" is more beneficial than any other exercise routine for non symptomatic people.

@jacob4472 I'm not sure why you're being downvoted instead of being discussed.

The one thing that made me question this routine is the neck circle exercises, which I've heard since forever are not good for you.

I came across this link, but there are many others:

Why should I trust the rest of the exercises? (I'm sure most are fine, but I'd be wary of anything unknown.)
