M30 Is this routine good for kyphosis and forward head posture?
5'8, 170lbs, back pain, diagnosed kyphosis since teenage years, bad posture.
Went to the doctor and he told me to just continue going to the gym to fix my posture (been doing that for years, didnt help). At least he said its not structural kyphosis after briefly touching my spine.
Went to a physiotherapist and he told me to do cat-cow pose a few times a week.
So I asked AI because none of this had any effect. And because Im sceptical of AI I want to ask if this is good advice or if anyone has better advice.
Heres what AI came up with:
Every morning:
Foam roller thoracic extension
Open Books (thoracic rotation)
Chin Tucks
Wall Angels
Doorway Pec Stretch
Upright Deep Breathing
Every evening:
Foam roller thoraic extension
Wall Angels
Upright Deep Breathing
At the gym: Before each workout:
Band pull aparts
Face Pulls
After each workout:
Farmers Carries
Are those good exercises to fix a rounded upper back and forward head posture? Is it enough?
