I dive into this even more in today’s video but the short answer is yes.
There really isn’t much out there proving that just because we have good posture that our pain will go away.
As much as the fitness industry tries to remind us about the specific posture habits that we fail at daily there isn’t anything to really measure good or bad posture off of so how do you know when your posture is “good enough” to be pain-free?
Sure we can have metrics to follow or little charts we can stand against to point out our imperfections but are these imperfections the true cause of our pain or is that just the way God created us?
The perfect posture and back pain angle I want to cover in this post is the forced good posture.
This is where you the individual contract your muscles for an extended period of time in hopes of correcting the position of your body.
A good example of this is sitting at your desk job and contracting your back muscles to sit up straight then contracting your muscles in the upper back to draw your shoulders blades back and down then trying to maintain this position for hours while you work.
This leads to overworking muscle groups which leads to cramping, soreness, and fatigue which could lead to a whole host of floating pains and issues.
