Show me your posture, and I say that it hurts! Bashny.Net

Since childhood, I have heard from my mother these words: "Sit up straight, straighten your back," Then I thought, why did she say that? It seemed to me that my back straight.
Many years later, I began to notice that often sit "crooked," spin - wheel. Sedentary lifestyle, three of pregnancy, and then care with three small children, craze embroidery, and later - sedentary work and the lack of physical activity did not contribute to the development of correct posture

. Then my body started to give signals about the problems: headaches, pain in the shoulder blades, numb and numb hands, cold and numb fingers after a long work with the computer, "backache" in the lower back, etc. We had to change something, and I started to study this topic.

For me was the discovery that health, strength, vigor person does not depend on age, but on the condition of his spine!

Inflexible, fixed, not flexible spine - the source of future disease
The human body is programmed to ensure that in 40 years it has emerged signs of aging and disease, and in 50 years, life was beginning to go to the finish line. Our body is designed so that up to 80-90 years, being physically active, healthy and flexible.

Bernard Macfadyen, who made a great contribution to the development of weightlifting, claimed that anyone can look 30 years younger, strengthening and stretching the spine. The more mobile and flexible spine, the younger man.

Let us look at the animals. For them, the constant training of the spine are everyday movements. Cat throughout the day constantly arches her back. A dog, hugging chest to the ground, pull the front legs. So the animals stretch your spine, allowing them to be energetic until old age.

Would you like to up to 90 years to be physically active and to look 30 years younger? 5 easy steps to help you in this.




Step 1. Check your posture

If the first and at the same time reached the walls of the buttocks and shoulders, then you stand correctly. If one side of the body touched the wall before the other, then you do not have a central equilibrium. If the first were the buttocks, then you favor the pelvis. If the first were his shoulders, then you are too tense back and pelvis forward too pronounced. If you touched the first spin, you slouch.

Option 2: Take a photo in a profile in full growth. In the photo a vertical line - ear, shoulder, hip, knee. The line should be straight.
