Hours spent hunched over at your desk or in your vehicle can be harmful to your shoulders, neck, and soul.

If you use the posture pole you can open up your chest, to help reverse the problems from a hunched posture. A posture pole is certainly a great thing to have in your fitness kit along with the physio ball and yoga mat.

 

How to use the posture pole

  • Rest your body lying along the foam roller or posture pole
  • Lay your arms out to the side and feel a nice stretch in your chest and pectorals
  • Lie for about 2-3 minutes
  • To get back up, roll on your side and push yourself up with a nice, straight spine.

Little things like this done regularly can make a huge impact over time.
