Wrong posture is causing a hump; this exercise can help correct it.

News Topical, Digital Desk : Nowadays, most people spend hours working in front of laptop or mobile screens. Staying in the same position for 8 to 9 hours at a stretch has a direct impact on the body. Sitting in the same posture for hours on end can cause the back to slouch, shoulders to hunch forward, and a slight hunchback to develop. Poor posture not only harms your personality but also increases the risk of stomach aches, stiffness, and muscle strain.

If you're struggling with these problems, fitness experts recommend some simple exercises. Let's share some exercises from fitness experts that can help correct your hunchback.

Reduce chest muscle tension:

Experts say that the biggest cause of poor posture is tight chest muscles. When chest muscles become overly tight, they pull the shoulders down and forward, leading to a hunched posture. To correct this, practice chest release exercises for a few minutes daily. Doing light stretches against a wall, about 10 times in three sets, relaxes the shoulders and lifts the body.

Correct Donald Duck Butt:

Many people tend to overextend their waists while walking or sitting, a condition known as Donald Duck Butt. To correct this, sit on one knee, lean forward on the other, and tilt your head slightly forward and stretch your arms out to the side. This improves balance in the back muscles and keeps the spine straight.

Stretch your neck and shoulders.

Constantly looking at your phone can cause your neck to bend forward. To correct this, place the fingers of both hands behind your neck and gently pull your head back. This practice stretches the neck muscles and brings your head back into the correct position.

Do Bhujangasana:

Sitting incorrectly for long periods of time can lead to a hump on the back. This is also known as kyphosis. To avoid this, you can do Bhujangasana. To do Bhujangasana, lie on your stomach, place your hands under your shoulders, and slowly raise your chest. This asana strengthens the spine and helps reduce the hump.

Shalabhasana:

In Shalabhasana, lie on your stomach, place your hands under your thighs, and raise your legs simultaneously. Practicing this daily strengthens your upper back and reduces the hump.

Balasana:

To do Balasana, sit in Vajrasana, rest your forehead on the ground, and stretch your arms forward. This simple pose stretches the spine and shoulders and helps straighten a hunched back.
 

For this pose, get on your hands and knees, rounding your back and sometimes arching it downward. This exercise strengthens and flexes the spine.
