You're not supposed to sit straight in a chair, it's bad for your lower back.
>tfw trying to fix forward head posture
Shit is hard, once your body locks into a bad posture you can't simply "sit up straight" anymore, to fix it you actually have to do some specific exercises.
Those are for standing. Do they also apply to sitting? I stand straight but sitting straight is hard to do.

You're not supposed to sit the same way in a chair all day, just vary your position every 10 minutes and you're fine.
Too fucking late mate
>>343408996
>>343409336
I was like this >>343409637
Then I started lifting.
Just two months of serious lifting would fix you right up, and everyone would start commenting how "differently you carry yourself".
I can't believe I waited until I was 25 years old to start lifting, this shit is like fucking magic.

Started with 24, but I never had bad posture so idk if it helps.
I HAVE to sit with my legs crossed or something. It's impossible for me to sit normally. Anyone else?
>>343410597
Start doing it, and never stop. Never forget.
>>343410597
I honestly dislikes lifting because of how normie it is.
But as much as I hate to admit it, /fit/ convinced me that I can lift while still being a total fucking loser, that's basically the entire board.
Regardless I registered for Japanese lessons in my rest days to balance the norminess.
Anyway, got the first app I saw, used the fucking default routine didn't change a thing.
Started watching how others did it, ask for pointers, and add more weight every week.
Bam. Works.
Now I can shitpost on /fit/ as well as /v/.
>>343410451
>le lifting meme
Sorry but no one respects you and the only person who commented on how you carry yourself was you when you looked at the mirror.
For people who want true physique you should start swimming.

Fucking Kek this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard
>>343411079
Actually no, I didn't notice a thing.
I was fucking retarded and was sure that I will quit after a few gym visits so I didn't take a a "Progress pic" when I started, because I didn't want a reminder on my phone of how much of a loser quitter I am.
Turns out I was wrong, lifting really feels amazing, and has INSTANT effects on the psyche.
But it was others that brought it to my attention how much I changed in like 6 weeks or so, co-workers and friends, for me I was doing it because it feels fucking awesome.
So I started and never fucking stopped.
Cardio takes a LOOONG time to see any results.
>>343411079
swimming is the god-tierest exercise because it's also fun
pushups are also top tier
>>343411547
Are you denying how fucking "BRO" everyone that lifts is? With their fucking monthly blond bimbo girlfriend and their low-hanging tanktops and too much fucking hairgel flex selfies.
There's a huge douche culture that intersects with lifting, and it's nothing I want to be part of, thanks.
I'm just here for the weights and for the gains.
>>343411658
Swimming has the benefits of both
>>343411547
I think that anon is referring to the contemporary culture surrounding lifting.
The culture is banefully shallow - not everyone who lifts is an artistic aesthete like Mishima.

Swimming does burn a LOT of calories if you are trying to bulk.
So yes, it's not just a meme that it kills gains.
Then again, if you are a hopeless fatass slob with no self-control I can see why Swimming would be better than lifting for you.
>>343412337
Nobody cares about you, it's also fine to offend people.
Unfortunately swimming is really expensive where I live

>>343412754
Barrel chest is a good thing. You are a manly man from a forgotten era, learn some fisticuffs and smoke a pipe.
How can you tell if you have bad posture?
>>343412754
You have the potential to get really fucking beef. On the flip side, if you neglect your health, you have the potential to get incredibly fat.
>>343412754
at least you don't have funnel chest
I'm skinny but will always look like I have slight boobs
>>343413347
Back up against a flat wall and stand up straight. If your head does't touch the wall then you have a forward head.
>>343413207
Focus on pushing your chest out, I feel like that puts a lot of things into alignment
>>343413207
Take a long towel or dust cloth and wrap it around a door knob creating a loophole.
Sit with your back to the door and straigthen through until the back of your head is pressed firmly against the door.
Use the loophole from the towel to keep your chin in place and push against it while keeping your posture
>>343413687
Not the anon you suggested this to, but felt like trying it
>Feet, ass, shoulders and back of head all in contact with door
>No contact between shoulders and ass
Should I call an osteopath?
>>343413918
I just did it out of curiosity and it turns out thats okay. In fact, it means you have a good posture.
Best exercise for good posture is the one I learned in ballet, it's dead simple, you just pretend that there's a rope attached to the very top of your head, and that you're hanging from it. Instead of trying to straighten your back directly, which is really hard because without reference points you can't tell what's straight or not, your body will naturally line up as you imagine hanging from the top of your skull.
Why is the human spine such a piece of shit?
>>343414339
Because we became lazy and spend too much time sitting down and/or slouching in chairs.
>>343414339
Because evolution is retarded and couldn't make a proper mechanism. Should've sticked to what it knows best like muscles.
>>343414339

Not all chiropractors are bullshit, but like video games and poetry, it's way too easy to pretend you know what you're doing and sell raw bullshit claiming "you just don't understand it"

The entire fucking premise of chiropractic is built on quackery, Anon. Anything they do for you is from the very basic osteopathy some of them bother to learn.
Seriously, these fucks are poison, visit a real doctor.

It's a little dry but I found it fascinating.
>>343413760
>>343417047
Real chiropractic isn't about homeopathic shit, it's about fixing your spine first and foremost. The nerves in your spine control everything in your body, and sometimes a problem in an organ or limb isn't actually located in that place, but is being caused by the associated nerve cluster located between your vertebrae.
It's not about "You have this problem, here is the cure" it's about "your spine is out of place, I can put it back in place". A good chiropractor doesn't claim to cure illnesses or disease. It's about improving health at it's core.

>>343418090
No she didn't. At most she debunked extremely old and outdated claims that no true modern chiropractor believes, and said that the practice is often filled with quackery, which I already said was true. At worst she made a bunch of baseless claims with no legitimate evidence about the modern practices, cherrypicking examples of homeopathic shitters and pretending that reflects the entire practice.
"Nerves can't be pinched, look at this contortionist" Nerves don't get pinched because of large intended movements of the spine, stuff like bending back and forth like you're expected to be able to. They instead are damaged when a vertebrae is out of place, disrupting natural movement.
She did nothing but cherrypick obvious quacks and misrepresent the entire field based on irrelevant diagrams and blatantly false claims.
"Hurr, Asthma is fake because this person is currently holding his breath and totally fine. Pulled tendons are fake because tendons are supposed to stretch. Eye doctors are quacks because eyes can't be bad, they're meant to focus at different distances"
Bitch knows enough to lie convincingly but didn't actually prove anything whatsoever. Sounds like a fucking christian scientist "proving" that the earth is 6000 years old"

>idle animations
>>343420268
If you can float you can swim, and being in the water will allow you to use your shoulder freely without straining it against gravity, working it lightly to it's full range of motion with less risk of hurting it.
Obviously you should start in shallow water, but swimming would probably be very good for you. Even if it doesn't fix anything, it's very fun and will give you a sense of freedom.
Holy fuck I wish I didn't have #2. How do I fix it?

Start making your own furniture like I did. You can make really simple stuff very easily, and it's fun to do, especially as you get more confident and start making things you're proud of. Plus there is nothing as satisfying as forcing your manlet friends to sit in giant fucking chairs that make them look like little babies like "Yeah motherfucker how do you like being the wrong size for this shit?"
