Improve Your Posture Videos to Kick Start Your Basic Mastery of Proper Posture

Improve your posture videosIf you want to know how to improve your posture, videos are a great way to get a lot of information in a very efficient and effective format. If you’ve read the other articles I’ve written on improving posture, you already know why our posture is so critical to not only decreasing back pain, but to improving your health in general.

You also know that good posture is important not just in sitting/standing, but that it is also vital during all your daily activities.

The how-to video in this article will walk you through how to find an optimal posture for static activities (such as sitting and standing). However, since having good posture while you move is so critical, I also want to review proper posture in a few of the basic activities most of us do day in, day out. My hope is that reviewing proper posture in some common daily activities will give you a greater understanding of how to improve your posture in all the activities you do.

Now let’s get started with our how-to improve your posture videos. The first key to improving your posture is to understand the concept of finding, and functioning in, your neutral spine. If you’ve read my other articles on improving posture, chances are you’ve already seen the how-to video on finding neutral spine. If you are not familiar with this concept, watch the video in this link. The video in this tutorial will teach you how to find your neutral spine while lying on your back.

Though finding your neutral spine while lying on your back is usually where we start in physical therapy, the standing position is really more functional. This means it is actually more useful to you because most of the activities we do during the day are in an upright position. Watch this video to get a basic mastery of how to find your neutral spine in standing.

Now that you know how to find your neutral spine in sitting and standing, let’s cover a few improve your posture videos for some common daily activities. The video this clip demonstrates is how to find a correct sitting posture. Since many of us spend so much time at a desk working on computers these days, this is a vital posture to master.

The next demo in our improve your posture videos will discuss good posture in standing. Though it is very similar to posture in sitting, the video in this tutorial will demonstrate how to achieve perfect posture in standing.

Now that you’ve got a basic mastery of standing and sitting posture, let’s watch some videos that will help you during some common daily activities. The first how-to video below provides instruction in performing sit to stands, an activity most of us perform hundreds of times a week. As you can imagine, it is vitally important to have good posture in any activity you perform that frequently.

The next demo in our improve your posture videos is one that demonstrates how to perform bending/lifting with perfect posture. Since bending without proper technique is one of the most common causes of back pain, learning how to bend/lift with proper technique is essential to eliminating unnecessary stress on the lower back.

The last video we’ll cover demonstrates one of the activities people frequently tell me aggravates their back pain…vacuuming. I mentioned previously that bending and lifting with improper form is one of the most common aggravators of back pain. However, bending and twisting at the same time is one of the activities that puts the most stress on the discs and ligaments of the spine. For that reason, vacuuming without proper technique is extremely hard on the back. The video in this tutorial will show you how to perform this activity with proper form, which is essential for both preventing back pain and decreasing unnecessary “wear and tear” on your back.
