## Caption

Exercising, driving, sitting, reaching, standing, looking at our phones — you name it, we round our shoulders doing it.

While some people can train themselves to pull their shoulders back while pretending to squeeze a golf ball between their shoulder blades, the rest of us spend extended periods slouching in front of a computer, with our shoulders forward and down.

Unfortunately, poor posture from rounded shoulders becomes a habit that can trigger everything from neck pain and headaches to lower back strain and poor circulation.

The rounded shoulder position is often associated with a condition termed “upper crossed syndrome,” which is characterized by tight chest muscles (pectoralis major/minor) and neck/shoulder muscles (levator scapulae).

The good news? With some retraining of your brain and body, a handful of exercises and stretches for rounded shoulders, and a lot of practice, you too can learn how to hold that golf ball between your shoulder blades.

If you need a strategy.
If you need accountability. 
If you want a coach.
If you want a body change.
