I cover how to fix rounded shoulders posture through a combination of stretches for bad posture correction and posture exercises you can do within 10 minutes for a quick posture fix. Based on the analysis of multiple papers, two primary things contribute to your slumping shoulders. First, overactive muscles that have become tight and are pulling the shoulders into the forward position. The main culprits for this are often the pecs and the upper traps, in combination with a general lack of thoracic mobility. Second, underactive muscles that have become weak and are failing to pull the shoulders back. The main culprits for this are typically the traps (mid and lower) and the serratus anterior. And research shows that these underactive muscles became weak over time partly due to the overactive muscles preventing us from being able to turn on these underactive muscles in the first place. Therefore, when it comes to how to fix rounded shoulders, well be making use of a two-part routine: stretching of the overactive muscles, then the strengthening of underactive muscles. For the first part of the routine, well concentrate on stretching out your overactive muscles. And well make use of two primary stretches for bad posture correction: thoracic extensions and band over-and-backs. If you dont have a foam roller, Ive included links to two I recommend below. The second part of the posture fix routine involves three posture exercises: the band pull-apart, banded Y-raise, and push-up plus. This step is critical: case studies analyzing rounded shoulder posture have found that this provides significantly better corrective results than the stretching we previously did. But with all these exercises, you must make each rep count. You'll need to perform each rep slowly, with control, and proper form; only then will you be able to engage the right muscles that you intend to. And keep in mind guys, if you want to correct bad posture for the long-term, you need to not only always be aware of how your posture is throughout the day and correct it accordingly, but you also need to ensure that your training program is structured in a way that prevents these muscle imbalances from occurring. Thats exactly why within my Built With Science programs, weve taken the time to carefully select each and every exercise included in your weekly training routines such that you can build lean muscle while actually improving your posture and correcting your muscle imbalances in the process.

If you have a stiff, tight or painful hip then Unflexal will unlock your hip flexors and restore movement the way it should be. Unlocking your hip flexors instantly breathes new life, energy, and strength into your body! I experienced immediate results. I've been able to loosen up my hips, decrease back tightness, and even workout harder. With so many people suffering with hip pain out there, this program is a great tool for anybody that wants to reduce pain while improving strength, performance, and overall health. Hip flexibility, mobility and strength is one of the most important things you can do to keep your overall body healthy. The video presentation and visuals in the exercise program give me confidence that I am doing the exercises correctly which for me is key with no personal trainer. The website is very complete in listing the possible causes of tight hip flexors and other factors that can lead to the issue. It has detailed, descriptive information regarding the anatomy of the hip, causes of such injuries, and a very progressive and well explained exercise and stretching schedule that will assist to re-balance the hip and pelvic region, safely stretch and strengthen the muscle group. Best of luck to you! :)

Get someone with serious rounded shoulders, and perform these exercises. They dont work.
I am a software engineer and have rounded shoulder. These exact exercises were prescribed by physical therapist. They dont hit the areas they are meant to for someone with rounded shoulders. That band pull - it looks nice when you (without rounded shoulder) do it. For someone with rounded shoulder it tightens up neck and shoulder region even more.
Same with other exercises.
After 6 months of physical therapy, I was probably worse than when I started.
At first I thought its just me. But several of my office colleagues had similar experiences. Regardless of which therapist, personal trainer they went to, seems like these are the recommended exercises. And they didnt work for any of them.
It would be more realistic to get someone with rounded shoulder for your video and have him do these.

Rounded shoulders are due to upper cross syndrome. That is where the lower traps and front neck muscles are weak, and the pecs and upper traps are extremely tight.
A better approach would be to strengthen the lower traps by doing the YTWL exercises, and strengthen the chin tuck exercise. Stretch the pecs and upper traps.
Just focusing will not solve the problem.

Thank you for this video! I had struggled with my posture for years and tried a lot of different stretches and exercises to attempt to correct it. I've been doing your routine for a little over two weeks and the results are amazing. Never thought I could correct my posture at home!

The band pull apart makes me feel like my shoulders are super tight, and I can't feel it in my back even when I fully extend with thumbs out to the side and good form. Why? It feels really tight in my shoulders, is there something I should do first? Or just use less tension?
reply

Can this some how screw up your hip lower back area. Cause it's really frustrating my surfing and I prob get my rounded ass shoulders from swimming/ paddling. I get pinches and pain n my abdomen and hip and feels like my upper back is compressing maybe?

First foam roller exercise can be done up and down along the wall with roller in front of the body, bent elbows and forearms on the roller. this let's thoracic spine get same movement yet doesn't trigger vertigo (strengthen gently against gravity)

Jeremy, this was easily one of the hardest workouts I've ever done. Clearly, my rounded shoulders had a lot to do with how weak the center of my back is, as well as how stiff and tight. Can't wait to see the results after a month or so.

So can rounded shoulders cause shoulder pain? I will be buying the roller and bands tonight. Someone noticed my shoulders do round a bit and ill need to fix this. Hopefully it dose not take to long for a better effect in my life.

Just watching this video and seeing how far back he can get the band convinces me I need to improve my mobility. No way I could do that. Can't wait to see the results.
