Poor posture is not just an unattractive appearance, but also health problems, and quite serious ones. Want to know which ones? Let's figure it out.
1. A headache is, firstly
It occurs due to a number of disorders occurring in the cervical spine. The muscles there, as a rule, are spasmodic, and the vessels are pinched. As a result, blood flow is disrupted, and the person suffers from frequent pain in the head.
2. Heart palpitations, shortness of breath
It is obvious that with poor posture, our internal organs contract, or even deform. The lungs and the heart are the first to suffer, therefore shortness of breath appears, and the heart begins to beat "like mad."
3. Injuries during training
Here, beginners are most at risk. For example, those who signed up for the gym to lose a few pounds of excess weight. The technique of performing the exercises has not yet been worked out for them, and if the posture is disturbed, it will not work to do everything correctly. Additional control will be required. Poor posture is also closely related to weak back muscles. So, before approaching large weights in the simulator, you must first pump up your back, working with your own weight.
4. Backache
Almost everyone has experienced recurrent back pain. And in order not to run them before a chronic illness, it is necessary to strengthen the back.
5. Chronic fatigue
It occurs due to an imbalance in muscle tension. Pay attention to the shoulders. They are usually tucked in, which means they are tense and give additional stress.
6. Negative changes in appearance
Impaired blood flow due to poor posture is fraught with bags under the eyes, overhanging eyelids, as well as early wrinkles as a result of the same muscle spasm. And the same double chin can appear due to the wrong position of the head and neck. And also a small, but belly that does not disappear even with the most strict diet is also a consequence of poor posture. In addition, due to impaired blood flow in the neck, the skin color will never improve - it will remain unhealthy gray, despite the most modern cosmetic procedures applied.
How can the situation be rectified? Good posture is a complex of:
- habits to keep your back straight;
- the correct position of the head and neck;
- developed muscles of the back, chest.
You should work with your back constantly. This problem cannot be solved in a couple of sessions in a fitness or gym. However, after a month of regular training, you can feel much better, prettier. And a year later - to boast of an absolutely flat back.
