Straightened his slouchy back, just pulling his legs out from under the chair

Smooth posture - it's always beautiful. They are admiring the people around them, and they respect their owner. But the reality is that not everyone can boast of a beautiful posture. But what’s so hard about keeping your body as natural as possible?

And today's edition. "Site" He suggests talking about one curious exercise that will straighten your slouchy back when sitting in a chair. And there are no complications here. You just have to replace one (bad) habit with another (good). And the result, as they say, will not take long to wait.



Proper posture gives much more than just an attractive appearance. After all, the curved back triggers a number of health problems such as diseases of the musculoskeletal system, circulatory disorders and even emotional disorders. But taking care of the health of the spine will help to avoid all this.



Probably, many in childhood heard in their address the phrase from one of the adults “Sit straight!”. We had to straighten for a few seconds, but then the back out of habit again acquired the usual round shape. Repeated remarks helped only for a few seconds, no more.

Why was there no lasting effect? Why would the child stand up only for a few moments and stare at the adults with a mute question: “Well, how long should I sit like this?” Half a minute? One minute? Even longer? This exercise on the chair did not bring any benefit. All because the legs at this moment did not take any part in the “alignment”.



But in order for a person to straighten up and sit straight, it is only necessary that he pull his legs out from under the chair and put them in the correct position. To do this, the feet should fit snugly to the surface, and between the thigh and lower leg, let the right angle (90 degrees) be maintained.



You can experiment and put your feet under the chair again. In this position, the legs often cross, and the heels are on weight. If you pay attention to your feelings, it is easy to feel that the additional load in this case falls on your knees. But why do we load our joints even when they should rest?

When we sit down, our musculoskeletal system should get a break. But we, without realizing it, put our feet under the chair and again load our joints, overexert and squeeze our knees. Only because of a habit that has been formed in us for years.



This habit was with us when we were young and healthy. She was already destroying our knees and lower back. And in solid years, when health is already destroyed, it continues to finish us off. And we don't notice her. And surprisingly, even doctors do not always notice it, often also have poor posture and also suffer from bad consequences.



But you do not just need to get your feet out from under the chair and place them under the table, keeping a right angle. You need to feel how your feet are on the floor, how relaxed and free they are. At this point, the person should not feel tension. But if he feels calm and confident, if his shoulders and lower back are straightened, and his back is straight, then everything is fine. This exercise "Samurai posture" is shown in the video below.

Experts believe that this is how (as shown in the video) a person should sit who wants to be valued by his superiors and write him bonuses. But if you think about it, it makes sense.

When a person sits flat, when he is straightened and confident, he is different from others. And any boss will instantly understand that he is dealing with a reliable person, subconsciously feel it.

So remember this rule and let it help you feel the relationship between your back and legs. And then to maintain a straight back, and the posture proud and beautiful will not be difficult. After all, in this position, the body functions best, its organs work more freely and none of them is infringed. And on the well-being of such a smooth posture will affect the best.
