[25M] With bad posture looking for advice how bad is it and what to do(stretches, exercises, or both?)
6’5 180lb. Training for years and struggling with consistency and mental issues. One of the main things beside seriously gaining 20lb this year is fixing my horrible posture. My back is fucked up, my neck is forward and other issues such as:
- uneven shoulders(I think my right shoulder has fallen a bit, I could see that clearly while I was watching myself on tripple mirror
- you can see my ribs how weird they are, what does that mean?
- my hips has <> shape, that looks like scoliosis
- also I want to bulk up my neck, fix it and also make it thicker. On monday I did only one set of neck curls with weight and wanted to throw up whole day, sickness feeling
Throughout days - either lying in bed or sitting, both in not so good positions. Mid back hurt when I walk straight, for longer periods, lumbal hurt now since I started driving(I’m flexing my lumbal part there). Also hurt it while back in mid set of pendlay rows. For fallen right shoulder I’m lifting it up daily and retracting scap
Phisios throughout years told me I have kypho-scoliosis, but told me I do not have uneven shoulders or bad neck, they did more wrong then good, put me on static exercises and that’s it
This year, I want to fix it all! All stretches, exercises, everything in my reach
Have perfect form at the gym, especially when doing back and face pulls and still walk with bad posture, like I did nothing
In case you want to see my photos they will be set up as forced straight posture-how I think my posture is-bad posture-as bad as I can go. Couldn’t get what it looks like being unconscious of it and really loose with it
