Simple Exercises to Fix Your Posture and Improve Your Health

Improving Posture: Simple Exercises for a Healthier Back Many people suffer from poor posture, leading to back pain and other health issues. A recent video by fitness enthusiast, Nikita Bulantsev (@bulafit), demonstrates three easy exercises to help correct posture. These exercises, performed while standing, focus on strengthening back and shoulder muscles. The first exercise involves placing hands behind the head and gently pulling the shoulders back, repeating 14-16 times. Bulantsev explains, "This exercise helps to engage the back muscles and improve spinal alignment." The second exercise involves raising the arms overhead, 10-12 repetitions, to stretch the upper body. The third exercise, 12-14 repetitions, involves extending the arms to the sides to open up the chest and shoulders. While the video provides a basic introduction, a more comprehensive article could delve into the benefits of proper posture, offer modifications for different fitness levels, and include advice from physical therapists or other health professionals. Regular exercise and mindful posture are key to a healthier back and overall well-being.
