The 3 Neglected Muscles to Fix Posture & Rounded Shoulders FOR GOOD

I was known for good posture as a kindergarden kid. I'm having bad posture since I got to school. Was sent to different physio therapists throughout my life. Most of their exercises were way too exhausting for me or they just told me to stand up straight, so I got really demotivated over the years and of course my posture didn't improve. The video was extremely helpful to understand what is actually going on (anatomy) - no physio has explained that to me before - and the slumpy exercises just pick me up from where I'm at. Really looking forward to my new journey! Thank you. Subscribed!

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Thanks so much for stopping by to share your story. These exercises and your mindset are going to pay off. Do them 2 - 3 times weekly for 4 weeks and send a report. We can go from there. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@robertomacari501]

The slumpy serratus anterior exercise is exactly what I needed. Every few months or so, I feel my right side get very tight and sometime cramp if I stretch overhead. Leads to shoulder hiking on my left side and neck stiffness. This exercise always does the trick but I always forget to keep it up after a week or two of feeling good again! When it’s back on track though it’s amazing how much it carries over into exercises like dips, bench, rows, pull ups. I sit a lot for work and am left handed which leads to a tight right side when my dominant elbow tends to rest on the desk. Such a vital exercise for chronic sitters.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

We are here to happily remind you of your favourites :)

[@ThePitbull994]

I thought i was the only one that had the same problem.. i stop doing these exercises after i start to feel good and the problem always comes back, just goes to show you that we need to do this for the rest of our lives 🤣

[@Dani-wv7ev]

Thank you very much for this really helpful video! I must admit that I never heard about the multifidus until I watched your video "Stop stretching upper Traps". On my daily walks (around 15k steps) I noticed over the last few years (I'm 74) that my posture isn't what it's supposed to be, which leads to a "tired" feeling of the thoracic area. I did the tree exercises of this video here along with you last night (lumpy Psoas activator, thoracic Multifidus activator and lumpy Serratus activator) and on my walk today, I walked effortlessly tall with good posture for app 3 hours and no tiredness in my thoracic area. I'll be sure to carry on with those exercises. Thank you :)

I appreciate this so much. I am struggling so hard with my posture and oddly enough I had just discovered that my psoas muscle was probably causing me issues when I would walk after sitting. And now you have mentioned that the psoas could also affect posture, so I am so thankful to have these 3 exercises. I have the problem of not being able to maintain the posture - my muscles just can't do it after a few minutes. So thank you so very much for these exercises and all your entire channel and ROM app.

Hi Coach, thank you for your videos...so helpful. Please excuse my ignorance but I was wondering...the Serratus Anterior does protaction and upward rotation of the scapula...doesnt this exercise stretch the serratus? is that the intention here? I thought that "activation" means shortening/contracting it...sorry for my confusion...trying to understand it.

This and other videos are great but one thing I seem to be missing as I watch through most of them and try to figure out some serious shoulder pain is how often the exercises are done. I'm going to try the AC joint exercises but in that video, along with many others, it seems like you only mention number of reps. Maybe it should go without saying that you do them every day, but I just don't want to guess. Could be twice a day or every two or three days. I just don't know how often you are supposed to work certain muscles, especially when recovering from injury. Apologies if I'm somehow missing when you say how often to do them. Thank you so much for these videos though.

Hi Coach Eric! I'm wondering about the lumpy serratus exercise. I have rounded shoulders and scapular winging and I've noticed the only way it's to get my scapula to look normal, flat to my back, is to externally rotate my shoulders so that the eye of elbow is also externally rotated outside my body. If I do exercises like a lumpy serous will that help my rounded shoulders or do I need more exercises where I externally rotate my shoulders? Thank you so much!

Both! Key is connecting to serratus and then keeping it on for both types of exercises.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

You are overusing your pec minor and your shoulder complex. Work on the content in this video. Do the exericses before and after each of your clients. Try to modify your working postures so that you can add more posterior scapular tilt and external humerus rotation. Take as many breaks as you can to put your shoulder complex and humerus into a neutral position.

Will this help cervical neck pain? My sister has cervical neck pain and swelling. Supposedly nothing going on with the vertebrae according to her doctor.

She should check her ergonomics - find the best position for working. Maybe the patient chair is too low or her chair is too high, for example.

My left psoas is always so sore when I use a ball in that trigger area. Won’t the psoas exercise make it more sore with exercising it?

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Exercising it will allow it to reset and the soreness should subside :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

All my back pain and bad posture is from 20 years of (yo be blunt) overly large breasts. I and trying to lose more weight but it still isn’t helping. Any help with this, also?

Did you try out the exercises? How are you now? - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Do your best to face forward :)

I’m wondering, for the multifidus exercise, Is there any advantage to tucking your chin and flexing your cervical spine like in the original version or do you find this simplified version works the multifidus just as well? I never could quite get it with the original version but hopefully this simplified version helps.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

This version works just as well :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@Actraiser1]

@@PrecisionMovementCoach Is there any reason or scenarios to use one version over the other, or are they basically interchangeable?

Do you see patients in person?

I really can't figure out the 2nd one

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

Hey! Thanks for trying it out. What seems to be the trouble? What happens when you try? Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

[@RileyFreeman8]

​​@@PrecisionMovementCoachthanks for responding. I am having difficulty feeling anything at all in my spine area. I am very rounded forwards with bad anterioe pelvic tilt. It seems like most of my effort is going to pulling my pelvis back/flexing just my lumbar spine and I can't feel any sort of stretch in the area being noted in the video

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]

That is okay. The beauty of the exercise is that it works even if you can't feel it. As long as you are following the cues then you are good to go :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM

The sides of my upper back are extremely rolled towards the front. Hope the last exercise helps me pull back my shoulders and sides of thoracic back.

[@PrecisionMovementCoach]
