If you are doing a lot of weight training for your upper body and neglecting stretching - your posture will likely get worse!
In this video I discuss how lifting weights can lead to poor posture, especially for guys because we tend to focus more on upper body lifting movements.
I have personally experienced this over and over. Whenever I am focused a lot on upper body training - my posture will get worse if I don't stretch.
Generally, the muscles that contribute to "rolled shoulders" or "forward shoulders are:
tight pecs
tight lats
tight biceps/forearms
anterior delts (shoulders)
I am not saying that there is anything wrong with these movements: I think it is always good to get stronger and gain muscle.
What I am saying is that I think you should be doing stretching for the muscles you train, especially upper body movements.
The best times to stretch are when those muscles are warm, which makes post workout a great time to do these stretches.
Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any stretches that you like for improving posture!
