Fix my posture

When working in a gym, you meet lots of people who expect instant results from a work out. They’ll say “I’ve done 100 crunches every night since last Wednesday, and I still don’t have abs!” or “I walked two miles after work every day this week on the treadmill, how can I still be the same weight?” I would just be stunned that people would think that exercise works like that. If anyone could have the body of a dancer after two weeks of ballet class, don’t you think we’d all look like dancers? I was spending as much time exercising with them as I was telling them that if you look different the day after a work out, you’re either a magician or doing something wrong. You can expect instant gratification with email, not with your body.
While trying to fix my posture, I find that I have to give myself the same speeches. I’m getting frustrated that at the end of the day, I still look the same, plus some exhaustion. It took me years to screw my posture up. It’s not going to go back over night. I finally really get the frustration. I’ve had long term fitness goals before, but never this long.
All worthwhile things take time, right?
Hey, I can relate to future clients in a new way. Yay. Damn it sucks.

people think I have excellent posture because I stand so tall, but I don’t. I have lordosis..so the bottom of my spine curves a lot more then it should. I blame it on all the dance classes.

I’m at least more aware of how I carry my posture and what I need to do to change. I’m still figuring out my neck pain, but working with a physical therapist and, learning about anatomy on my own was sure helpful and I’m starting to see some exciting changes.

I went to physical therapy. I feel loads better and feel more attractive.

As if, I’m never going to go to a chiropractor, well at least not in the next few years. Posture has been a problem of mine for the last year or two, I cant help but sit on a slouch or on an angle of some sort, i just cant really keep still on a chair for a long period of time, such as at work. Its not a good thing to have a bad posture and I dont want to shell out money for a chiropractor if my back deteriorates.

Keep it real yo.
