Sitting behind a desk all day makes me worry about my posture.  A few months ago I found this video of a three-minute exercise to do twice a day, and I’m surprised at just how much better my posture has become and noticed that I now sit more upright when driving and sitting.  All you need to do is stand up against a wall and perform these exercises twice a day.  I usually do them right after the shower and a little bit before I go to bed.

When I first watched the video I thought it was a bunch of nothing, but then I tried it and was surprised at the muscle burn I felt in my upper back.  You can especially feel it when you work on muscle compression or in other words, add some mental/imaginary resistance as you go through your sets, as if you are actually trying to climb with your body weight.

So after giving this a go myself and liking the results, I thought I’d share.
