Want better posture without overthinking it? Here are 3 simple exercises you can do daily to open up your chest, activate your mid-back, and get your spine sitting where it should 👇
1. Wall Slides
Stand flat against a wall. Arms abducted to 90°, elbows bent to 90°, back of your hands touching the wall.
Slowly slide your arms up while keeping your back + arms in contact.
You should feel a deep stretch through your mid-back and chest opening up. 🔥
2. Prone Lower Trap Lift
Lay on your stomach with your arms at a 45° angle.
Lift your arm by pulling your shoulder blade toward the opposite hip.
This fires up your lower traps and trains your mid-back to stay upright. 💪
3. Thoracic Extension Stretch
Lay over a foam roller or pillow placed horizontally across your mid-back.
Reach your arms overhead and let your chest open.
Perfect for stretching the front of the body and mobilizing stiff mid-back joints. 🧘♂️
Do these consistently and your posture will thank you 🙌
Save this for later + share with someone who needs it 👇
