Posture is an extremely important part of health. It is where movement begins and ends. Posture doesn’t just indicate musculoskeletal imbalances; it can indicate an injury yet to happen, a food intolerance or bad nutrition habit, even a mood/outlook.
A person can have great standing posture, but poor posture once they move or play their sport. Sub-optimal posture in movement puts an athlete at risk for injury as well as decreases their performance potential. Poor static (standing) posture can lead to joint pain, shoulder/hip mobility issues and bad aesthetics (dowagers hump, etc). That’s the bad news. The good news is that you can change your posture. With a proper stretching and strengthening program, you can improve your posture to help you, look, feel and function better!
