How good is your posture.?Are you happy with it.Do you slouch?etc. I am very aware of this.I am proud of mine at my age. I have seen men slouching over and the first thing I said to myself. No way I want this.So what do I do in my early age in the fifties. I went to register in a ballet class to improve my posture. Not for the dance for the posture and done this for many,many years. I am proud of myself in improving mine This photo here was in a recital that I did working with the children. Also to help my spine .I got the chiropractor twice a month to strengthen my spine. Plus the military help me also to stand attention.Stand tall .This has never change How about you.Are you standing tall?

You look really strong and fit in that photo Fredo. Great stance alright. Yes, I was taught from my Mom not to slouch and always walk and stand tall.

I have a slight measure of scoliosis; it causes much back tension and it can be hard to walk or stand for long periods of time.

Oh I slouch. I am concerned about it but it just happens even without me knowing it. I am still trying to correct my posture though.

I am standing tall Alfredo, I think that a good posture is important. This is a great photo of you.

Many times being bent/slouched over has to do with genes----and I don't mean the ones you wear!

I think I spend a bit much time at the computer but my posture isn't too bad. That's a nice photo.
