CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Sit Smarter
Slouching can zap your energy and your mood--and over time it can lead to muscle fatigue, pain, and even injury. Straighten up by practicing smart sitting techniques.
Sit toward the front of your chair (rather than leaning against the back), with your hips tilted slightly forward.
Plant both feet on the ground, hip-width apart, toes pointed straight ahead.
Keep your chin parallel to the floor, with your ears aligned over your shoulders, and shoulders stacked over your hips.
Focus on proper sitting techniques this week and see if you notice a difference! If you don't sit much at a desk/computer, try applying good posture while you're driving in the car, standing, or walking. Shoulders down and back!
