Why is it Important to Stop Slouching?
It is very easy when you get into your work to slouch over your desk and forget about your posture. When we are pre-occupied, good posture is probably the last thing on our minds, however, maintaining a good posture is extremely important for many different reasons.
Slouching causes your upper back muscles to weaken and your chest muscles to shorten and tighten. Your shoulders then begin to roll forward, leading to your head following suit and straining the muscles in your neck. As time goes on, the lengthened muscles become weaker, and the shortened muscles become tighter. As a result, our bodies find comfort in deepening a slouched position to take the pressure off of them. And so it begins– a never-ending cycle of worsening posture until we have caused injury and severe pain.
In order to fight the dreadful slouch, we need to retrain our posture awareness and learn different tips and tricks to maintain a good, upright posture. Of course, creating an ergonomically friendly workspace is a huge head start! Get yourself an ergonomic office chair like the CoreChair and adjust your desk height, and screen location appropriately.
