Posture

This routine focuses specifically on the posture and back muscles using a light-medium resistance band. Make sure your band isn't too heavy. We want to activate the smaller, under-worked muscles, and lighter weight is better for that! 

These exercises are soooooo important to do regularly!

Poor posture and forward head puts a lot of stress on the upper body. The anterior neck and chest gets tight and adds to the rounding of the shoulders. The shape of the cervical spine changes, the upper back becomes lengthened, and that leads to the development of a hump. It takes time to undo this, but it can be done! It takes consistency though.

This 5 minute routine is easy to do and requires no equipment (although a folded/rolled towel or small pillow is recommended). Add these moves in every week!

Got a wall? Got 5 minutes? Then you can do this workout! 

This routine focuses on the core, glutes, and posture. 

You need a long, light resistance band for this routine. I recommend the kind that I'm using in this video as opposed to the ones with the handles. But if you only have the one with handles, you can use it (as long as it's light resistance). These bands are very inexpensive. Type in THERABAND on Amazon and you'll easily find them. This one is SOOOOO great for the health, strength and safety of your shoulders, and it also helps combat all the hunching we do every day. 

This routine uses a long resistance band. Make sure it's LIGHT. Do NOT use a heavy resistance band for these movements. You can use the long bands with handles, or you can easily order these rubber strips online. They're called "Thera Bands."
