Posture tips
Do you have good posture? I'm looking for tips.
When standing my posture isn't too bad. But whenever I sit I almost always slouch. Especially at my computer. I think part of the reason is I'm tall (6'1") and seats don't quite fit how they should. The bigger one though I think is that I feel the need to put my feet up wherever I go (within reason). Like even if I'm sitting at a place where there's no where to put my feet up, my preference is then to sit with my knee (one or both) pulled to my chest. My Dad's theory on this (he likes putting his feet up too, though not the chest thing as he's not as flexible) is bad circulation which he has but I'm not sure I do. That is to say if our body is more level it is easier to pump the blood around.
Anyway I'm getting sidetracked. I'll try to have good posture but I never get it into a habit. I inevitably give up after 5-10 mins. So I was wondering if anyone has any tips (especially people from the military) on how to keep it up. Particularly when sitting.
