Favorite Posture Exercises For Midriff And Back

March 26, 2009

Of course, you should do some other exercises to improve posture that target the back muscles as well. If you only target your stomach muscles, you’ll have an imbalance in the muscles that support your posture. One of my favorite posture exercises is to use a balance ball and lay forward on it so that it is in the middle of my stomach. My knees are flat on the floor and my hands extend forward in front of me. I then repeatedly let myself down and pull back up using my back muscles. This has a similar effect to doing crunches, except that it works the back instead of the front. Another great exercise to improve posture is leg lifts. There are probably dozens of different leg lift exercises, but you should be sure the ones you do balance each other out.
