Which posture is best for you?
Wondering how to have better posture at work?  Which position is best for you?
Slouching: hunched forward with feet touching the floor.
Upright: 90 degrees with feet touching the floor.
Relaxed: reclined backwards at 135 degrees with feet touching the floor.
The relaxed posture is the best position for your body! 
 posture
Having correct posture actually helps you to be calmer, more relaxed, more physically and mentally stable. 

My recommendations for better posture!

Tight Hips from Sitting Too Much?
What's the problem with tight hips? Tight muscles and restricted movement lead to strained muscles and areas of weakness, which can lead to injuries.  Address the tightness now with stretching & exercise; you will be healthier & much more comfortable!
 
Chances are that you sit down a lot, maybe even 8 hours or more a day. This can wreak havoc on our bodies, causing tight hips & low back pain.

Here are my recommendations for you!
  • Ditch your chair whenever possible.
  • Take breaks; walk around several times in your day.
  • Do a proper warm up before exercising. 
  • Do these 3 simple exercises, watch video.
     
YouTube Hips
What's good for your hips is good for your low back, it's like 2 for the price of 1!
