Lets look att ideal postuure for a minute. Look at your profilee in the
mirror. Chan nces are youure gonna find that yourr head is juttting
forward, or that your sh houlders are slumped forrward coupled with
a hunchbacck posture, or o that your lower back iss so arched tthat your
stomach pro otrudes forw
ward, giving you the skinny gut. Pe eople are
under the mistaken
m imp
pression thatt working ou ut hard in the gym
will fix this. Lets make one
o thing cleear - what yo ou do in the gym
only cemen nts what you have. If youu have bad posture,
p heavvy lifting
makes it wo orse. If you have good po osture, heavy lifting makkes it
better. Of co ourse there are
a exceptio ons to this, but for the majority
of the popu ulation, thatss the norm.

Before, I talked abou ut the anterior pelvic tilt and how to
o fix it. If you havent readd that, pleasse do.
This posst shall be ab
bout the upp per body dyssfunction thaat normally accompanie
a es the lower body
issues. B
But lets get one
o thing strraight you can fix the upper
u body as much as youy want, bu ut unless
the loweer body is op ptimally align
ned, the upp per body willl not be. The e upper body is a slave tot the
lower boody. Fix the lower
l body and
a the upp per body getts a lot betteer. Fix the upper body an nd the
lower boody will not necessarily follow.
f I hop pe you underrstand this.
