Is Pandemic Posture Affecting Your Health?

There's an interesting issue that occurs once we start feeling off due to poor posture. Whether it's fatigue, tight shoulders or headaches, we are naturally inclined to baby ourselves and skip workouts. This is the opposite of what we ought to do, according to Okubadejo.

"This makes the back muscles tighten even more. What you should be doing instead is swimming (if possible), doing light yoga and core strengthening exercises. The only time people should stop exercising is if they have been to a spinal surgeon/orthopedist and have been directed to do so or if the pain when exercising is so excruciating that it makes exercise impossible. The latter is a telltale sign that you need to see a doctor."
