Walk Tall

by WiredBerries Editors — January 18, 2008

Good posture is not just about looking good. It also affects your health. Standing with a strong back and your shoulders straight enables proper lung function and digestion. In addition, a spine that is out of alignment can lead to early degeneration as well as pinched nerves. WomenFitness.net offers this tip for maintaining good posture: Distribute body weight evenly to the front, back, and sides of the feet while standing. While sitting in an office chair, take advantage of the chair's features. Sit up straight and align the ears, shoulders, and hips in one vertical line.

Plus, great posture conveys confidence and shows off all your hard work at the gym!
