>>336600764
How many barbells you can balance on the back of your neck before they start rolling off.
>>336600764
It's effectively your head weight according to your neck and shoulders. The more forward the head, the harder it is for the neck to keep it up.
>tfw always had great posture
My mom told me good posture makes you more attractive.
Never been able to play games with good posture, cant keep track of stuff without leaning toward the screen, probably because of my terrible eyesight.
My posture is totally fucked because of it, tried to fix it with exercise, yoga and foam rolling but nothing seems to work.

My knees have swollen up multiple times from sitting crosslegged.
As a disclaimer though I have had surgery on one of them.
>>336601776
Sitting cross legged for too long at a time will fuck your hamstrings up. I did it for years and had to have an op a few years ago to fix my hamstrings (by lengthening them). It was impossible to bend over and touch my toes because of it, let alone walk or run properly because I couldn't fully extend my legs.

While we're on the subject of basic desk health. What are the best methods to reduce stress on the wrists at a computer desk? Every desk I find is just slightly too tall for me to comfortably place a keyboard with upward wrist bend. Any good slide out keyboard stands that you'd recommend?

>>336602171
>>336602354
My physio mostly consisted of stretching. Without bending knees and standing up straight, touch left toes with left hand and alternating right hand to right toes.
If you suffer any pain doing that, you really need to stretch more. It'll be better than paying money down the line (assuming you don't have the NHS, like I did.) to fix your hamstrings. You can also do it in bed - back against the headboard while reaching out to your toes without bending your back forwards too much.

>>336602857
no, the muscles are not stronger, the body compensated and added fatty tissue to assist
fatty tissue is not functional muscle, and only restricts mobility
It doesn't matter how you sit. The simple act of sitting itself gives you bad posture. Good posture is kept by keeping the muscles in your neck strong, which is done through normal standing activity. If you sit a lot you're going to have to do corrective exercises throughout the day.
>>336602624
Toddlers are flexible as shit, gave great mobility, and good posture.
Its actually how we are all supposed to be but shoes and chairs fuck it all up.

Curving your back in a C shape due to sitting is also horrible for your posture.
If by "straight" posture your mean a hyperextended lumbar spine, then you're right.
But sitting up straight (engaging abs) is about halfway between the two extremes.
>>336602551
You sound like my sister.

This is actually really good advice, I used to be somewhere in the middle of the last two and I had constant back and neck problems for my entire life. But I started putting my neck straight for the last year of highschool and it's been fine ever since, no back or neck problems.
But, I went to my chiropractor and told her about it and she said that you will feel tired as fuck, and sometimes dizzy because it's such a huge adjustment.
>>336602320
and sometimes i sit like this
>>336601776

>Muh health!!!
Is my posture is the worst thing happening to my body right now, I'm okay with that
>>336600997
That's weird. When my head is out like that it feels relaxed and when it's straight it gets tired. In fact when I stand upright, I hate the feeling of my spine curving in like it's supposed to in the middle. It just feels better when it's more straightened out like in the 32 lbs one.

>There are turds who can actually identify then different kinds of computer chairs

>>336603871
I fap like this.
I can't do it upright for some reason, it just feels so awkward.
>>336604032
Do upper back exercises: shoulder squeeze, standing rotations (side to side and right arm to left shoulder and vice versa), put your hands over your ears, elbows forward and lean towards the sky.
Make an effort to sit up straight while you sit. Roll your hips forward. The way you usually sit your hips are rolled back. Roll back and forth and your body will get used to that happy medium.
While standing, keep your head facing forward and imagine that someone has you on a string and is pulling you upwards. Keep shoulders slightly down and slightly back, abs and glutes slightly squeezed.
Get up every 45 minutes and do a 2 minute exercise from one of the above.
But when i sit straight my back hurts, should i just endure the pain until my posture goes back to normal or am i already fucked
>>336604091
Probably. I'm really going to pay for my bad habits when my metabolism slows down and my bad posture starts taking its toll.

How do I sit up straight without a chair with a back? Everytime I try to it feels like my lower spine is like curved forward and I'm not really improving anything.
