Hey Yiannis! Great videos and content! Question regarding hyperkyphosis, rounded shoulders and forward head posture. Is massaging the muscles of the skull base and the neck long-term beneficial for the above conditions?

[@melissarupard463]

I have hyper kyphosis and it has become extremely painful as I go about my day. I do try to get back into proper alignment throughout the day, but I think my age and my spine is now unable to get back into alignment because my hyperkyphosis seems permanent. Are there any braces or surgeries that can help ease the burning pain in my back that now have me out of work on disability. ? I don’t want to end up hunch backed and looking at my feet by the time I am 80. Any suggestions would be helpful. I am unable to work with my back this painful. I am 5’3” and 115, so, not overweight. I am age 59. Thank you for this informative video. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

[@heathermunoz6282]

Thank you foe this video. When you said "it's from the Greek word," with the tongue roll, I thought of My Big Fat Greek Wedding 😅 I have been working on this for years. YEARS. The only thing I've noticed that has helped is core stability training, pull-ups, wall training and daily correction of posture. That being said, I STILL HAVE IT 😫 It being my stupid stubborn forward shoulders and wings. It's so exhausting! Btw, my arms don't straighten. I realized that as a cheerleader. Don't you think that would also contribute?

[@Haukel]

nice video Yiannis :) One question tho: There are a lot of people who do bodybuilding with heavily internally rotated shoulders, (much worse than me who sits for 10 hours a day + doing some bodybuilding myself). As far as i have heard, bodybuilding indeed leads to worse posture if the training routine is not balanced. I dont know specifics here, why does that happen? Whyx is it worse than passively spending time in poor posture?

[@YiannisChristoulas]

To be honest I don't think that it is worst in general but it definitely can be bad. It all comes down to developing bad postural habits that eventually lead you to positions that are stressful but feel natural. The cause of creating a bad postural habit can be different though. Some reasons are long hours of sitting (for most people), long hours of standing (different type of work that eventually forces the body to alter positioning to deal with fatigue), being continuously sore on some muscles (the body adjust the movement to prevent pain, overtime you get used to it), injury (same mechanism with the previous), bad perception of the body's appearance (that goes for bodybuilders too). There are many reasons that can lead to bad posture aside from the perception that overly worked muscles pull you in the wrong positions. In elite bodybuilding though I don't recall many athletes being bad posture overall except from the anterior pelvic tilt which is forced by the weight of the guts (again gravity is doing the work). Overall I believe the cause of posture aberrations is not in the type of activity bad in the individual choices and experiences.

[@scottk1525]

These videos are incredible. Thank you so much for this. Question: how important would you say sleeping position is for posture correction? Seems to me that even if we are spending all day standing with good posture, if we then spend 9 hours in the fetal position with our head, shoulders, and spine curled inward, it's going to be very counter-productive. Should we all be learning to sleep flat on our backs?

[@Hardscope_Harald]

I have a Lot of Back pain caused by hyperkyphosis. You Said the best Training is to sit upright for a Long amount of time. But that is my Main issue. My Back works all the day to keep me upright and my musculae spinae are overloaded and start hurting Bad. Do you have any Tips for me?

[@waffle_chair9269]

Can’t the hips cause this too, and where the balance of weight is in their feet? I know someone who does this. As we travelled down their body, we discovered, their weight is always on their heel, not the ball of their feet, which I felt, was changing the angle of their hips, which then changed placement of shoulders. When they changed where the weight was, they straightened up a lot, but felt strain in their back. If this is correct, could you please do a video on how to get someone to shift their weight to the balls of their feet instead of their heels.

Hey there. Thanks for the video. Have a question tho. Do you advice me to start fixing this whilst simultaniously fixing forward neck/rounded shoulders? Or should I start with my neck/shoulders first, and then catch up with this later?

[@YiannisChristoulas]

If you have all conditions together (hyperkyphosis, rounded shoulders and forward neck) Start with rounded shoulders, then hyperkyphosis and then your neck. Many times fixing the former automatically corrects the later as well. My video on rounded shoulders will be live in less than 10 days
