3 TIPS FOR BETTER POSTURE 1. Take breaks to get up and move. Prolonged sitting is the position that puts significant pressure on the lower back. It is essential to break up your sitting time throughout the day and take frequent breaks. Schedule standing or walking activities at various times throughout the day to ensure you limit your sitting to about 45-60 minutes. 2. Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight can wreak havoc on your abdominal muscles, cause issues for your pelvis and spine, and create low back pain. All these can affect your posture, so it’s important to keep your weight in a healthy range. 3. Make your workspace more ergonomic. Whether you’re sitting in front of a computer, cooking dinner, or enjoying a meal, make sure your work surfaces are at a comfortable height for you. Your body is designed to align perfectly to allow proper movement, breathing, and blood circulation. Learning to find your ideal posture is key to moving and feeling better. Poor posture isn’t anything to be embarrassed about - very few people have perfect posture, and most people partake in lousy posture habits in one way or another!
