Bad posture is a bad habit that tends to come about through today's sedentary lifestyle. Days spent driving or slumped over a computer wreak havoc with our alignment and an increasing number of adults will suffer in their later years with back or neck pain due to these postural habits. This programme will look at ways of improving posture, strengthening essential postural and core muscles as well as mobilising the joints. We are going to counteract the amount of time spent leaning forwards, reducing the amount of stress placed on the spine and supporting joints and ligaments. We will also examine specific postural types offering exercises from throughout the programme particularly beneficial for each. The Ball is a fantastic tool for us to use to improve posture and strengthen those deep core muscles. Due to its unstable surface it is very difficult to slouch on as you would simply fall off! Everything we do on the ball works the small stabiliser muscles and due to its round nature, it allows us a much greater range of movement than if we were to perform the same exercise on the floor. Improving posture is not only to avoid back and neck pain. It can make you look slimmer, more attractive and it is a real reflection to the outside world of how we see ourselves. It improves breathing, circulation which can result in less cellulite as well as better overall functioning of the body. Ultimately though, having better posture, strength and mobility will not only reduce your risks of back or neck pain later in life, but will give you a renewed confidence and poise.
