Female, 22, 51kg.

I lost 45 kg two years ago and since then I’ve been working on staying in shape and building some muscle (I started from most of my muscle mass lost - I could feel seats through my ass bones and everything just hurt all the time).

I still notice that I tilt my back like this, my lower back hurts and my upper back / shoulders are always turned inwards and tense. I never sit with my chest open and if I try to, it feels like a stretch. I think I also don’t sit correctly on chair because my lower back takes a slouchy, “C” shape.

What can I do - are there specific workouts?

I am a side sleeper, and I always wake up with numb fingers, usually on my lower arm. I have relatively wide shoulders, and have noticed that my back curves when I’m on my side. I’ve experimented with pillows under my torso to no avail. Curious if anyone has any ideas of what I can do.

Note that I’ve tried softer mattresses with no luck. Back sleeping is also not an option for me.

This is the video, I used. I’m not exactly sure how to explain the pain, I’m having. I can’t sit roughly, slouch nor do any exercises like #8 in the video. I’m afraid, I may have hurt myself in some way and it may not be cured/fixed soon…

Can someone please help me understand why my left shoulder and scapula sit lower than my right one? I constantly have pain in the rhomboid area right at my shoulder blad on my left side as well. I have had this for years and have no idea how to fix it.

When i play skate i fall by my right buttock and right hand i just sit by that side first then after 4 day i got severe one sided headache with eye pain (right side) and severe light sensitivity i go to 3 hospital and i checked my eye they all said me your eye normal just mild dryness. I forget the day i fall and when i read on reddit he say may be the problem on ur eye will be past injury. Anyone who experience like this and how i correct my posture

Sorry for my english I'm not good👍

As the title suggests . This pain began 3 years ago out of the blue. I’ve been going to the gym for 3 months now and have noticed an alarming difference (to me) in the size/ proportion of my pecs, and my back . I’ve been to PT regarding my back and been told I have mild dextroscoliosis. And did a few moments for 2 months but nothing really helped. Thoughts/ comments are appreciated

First off I’d be curious to know if people notice the asymmetry at first glance or only once I point it out. It’s an insecurity of mine & causes slight discomfort (leg/hip/back pain), but not sure if it’s as obvious as it feels. Wondering if anyone knows if this can be fixed with better posture? Idk what the actual cause is: shoulder height, scoliosis, pevic tilt, leg length, hip muscles/height, etc.

I’m a left. I notice my left shoulder drops. Bit more. When I have hands behind back and press arms to floor it’s noticeable my left shoulder seems longer from the check. Any tips or advice what this can be? As I’m working out it’s pretty noticeable.

so i need exercises for this:

pelvic rotation towards left with right leg feeling suddenly longer with knee valgus on it and tibia going outwards.

right extrrnal oblique feeling thight titating left

neck retating left and head going to left side

did glutes blanks bridges

waiting for new pt in 3 weeks

started with a glutes & unilateral muscle loss that healed ( been almost 14 months)

feeling knee lock and hip too

weak inside thight on right side too

right medius glute thight but inside buttock weak

left s1 and knee overcompensate pain

thank you

if ever you can post pictures would be truly appreciated i dont know much about exercises and so far writing notes haven been too clear

Is this false curvature? How can I correct my leg shape? Are there any exercises that I can do to fix this?

Hi,

I have a twisted pelvis, apt and severe right side tightness from neck, shoulder & down too hip and this extreme catchy achy 12th rib pain.

Strengthening, stretching and pri excercises dont even touch it and im beyond done with it and about to just give up.

And of course nothing ever shows up on scans and doctors couldn't give two f#&ks unless you want pain meds. I just want too be out of pain, its F$&ked...

Hi im 16 years old going into 17 this month and im like a bit short and really insecure abt it... So i figured out if i could fix my posture i could maybe grow some cms I would really appreciate it

Also im kinda into swimming this whole summer i was just going swimming and i might go for one year not only the summer just pointed this out to know if it has a negative effect on my posture or a positive one

Whenever I walk, I always find myself walking mostly with my right leg which causes a bit of pain and fatigue on my right hip and abdomen likely because my organs and muscles are being crushed due to the weight imbalance. I'm trying to correct this by walking on a treadmill and leaning on my left leg but I have to really make an effort to keep my torso leaning on my left so I don't subconsciously lean on the right. I also work out unilaterally because in addition to my posture problem, I also have muscle imbalance. My left arm, or rather the entire left upper body is more mascular than my right side but opposite for my leg. Can y'all offer any tips to remedy my posture and "reset" my posture when walking?

Hi guys, female teen here. This is kinda confusing but I feel like my shoulder/neck/upper back area feels thick? And I kinda feel if you draw a line on the upper “plane” of mh shoulders, it kind of goes inward/forward. However, when I try to not do that, I just feel like im shrugging my shoulders and it looks even weirder. Do I just have extra fat or is it a posture issue? I do spend a lot of time sitting. Thank you!

Hi, I'm 20yo male. I don't eat very healthy. I'm 92kg (202lbs), 172cm (5'7 I belive). My father is 5'9 i belive and my mother is 5'0 - 5'2 I think. I want to just grow just a couple of inches. Is it possible with good diet and gym? Do i have to take supplements? Just at least to reach my father's height if possible. I would appreciate any advice given. Thanks

I’ve been setting at a desk very poorly for a long time and now that I’ve gotten a good job my posture is just terrible standing up. Pain and stiffness up my right shoulder, shoulder blade, and upper back.

How do I fix this? I’ve started core/hip/shoulder/back exercises, is there anything I should be doing or should I see a doctor?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has actually fixed their posture at home with no equipment. I have all three listed at the top, but it’s because my muscles are that weak and also from using my phone.
If anyone’s got any prefer after Photos that would be great, please and also could you please tell me what you did to achieve it?

Hi all!

I have rounded shoulders that makes my back look bigger and I have no idea how to fix it. (I put kyphosis too because someone said on a different post that it looks like I have it but im not totally sure I have it!)

I’ve tried to look at different videos but every single one tells me different things and I have no idea where to go or what to do.

I saw this one video where you put your spine on a rolled towel and lay there for 5 minutes each day.

A different videos said to lay on your stomach and raise your arms.

I have no idea what to do and want to see what others say helped them.

Also, if there are any ways to help this while sitting or driving please let me know. I’m still in school and sit for 7 hours each day and I know I could be doing something to help my posture.

Thank you so much!

Hi i have uneven shoulders theyre not too bad. Hardly noticeable tbf i only realised when i recorded myself back camera and noticed my overused shoulder drops lower. Jt does cause me tension and i believed its been doing this since i started my office job a year ago.

What exercises can help fix this

I'm 18M, how can I improve my neck posture relatively quick? it's not THAT bad but I want to fix it, besides clear benefits. good posture, it also makes me look shorter and other stuff, any tips?

I did another post back then but my shirt was really loose. For context again, I am 160cm and about 48kg, I have a 18 month old baby and I am still breastfeeding. I found that I have like rounded shoulder and tried pilates for months but it didn’t work, wondering what else I can do please?
