    By naturally i mean is it how youve grown up or curvature of the spine which sometimes can be slight and not picked up by patents as a child growd up which i suppose would come under a medical issue as opposed to muscle imbalance through sports such as boxing.
    I know loads of lads with bad posture and being hunched over who are involved in boxing. Overpowered serratus anterior abdominals pecs and anterior deltoid constantly in use within the training with no thought to corrective excercises through the agnostic muscles and poor stretching allround.
    You have to diagnose how the condition came to be before you can offer a remedy and if it was through a sport such as boxing corrective exercises on the shoulders alone wouldnt be enough.

    I see DW still knows everything, i wonder why he hangs around forums trying to learn to box? Its a shame most experienced proffessionals dissagree with you on this one on paper yes it is said to be fixable but in reality hyper kyphosis is very difficult to cure but can be managed.

    Im interested to see your case studys where youve cured hyper kyphosis so easily?

    Iv had physios and half of them havnt been able to help me like s**** has.

    So you say excercises that pull the shoulder girdle back? Thats just plain wrong.
    You must first address the pelvic tilt first and foremost otherwise the posture wont improve and there will be more problems down the line.

    It actually has very little to do with pulling the shoulder girdle down and back but its more about chin positioning and how your ribcage and hips are sitting which is causing the problem, the shoulders are simply an adaption as a result of the bad posture not the root cause, you dont know **** all, who have you trained again?

    Stop googling 5 minutes about postural deviasions and thinking you know it all, just making a right tit of urself, i dont mind you wanting to look like your smart online but when your obscuring s**** from actually giving good advice that may help somebody who actually competes your just been a class A *****, stop pretending you know what your talking about DealtWith .

    I really suffered with posture it was because of over developed front shoulders so I was hunched forward.
    You have to train your rear deltoids and strengthen your rotator cuffs and focus on stretching your front shoulders and keep your chest up as if you are standing proud.

    If anyone could post a resource with some information on this I would really appreciate it. I looked into Osteopathy, and reading a little bit on it (and trying some exercises) almost every day.

    The info, I mean if I wanted to do it on myself. I am not a performing athlete, I am a regular kid who would like to start learning how the body works in this context, and the common issues with human's movement.

    Trying and making adjustments on myself, without having to go to a formal school. I am willing to attend courses in my area (Calgary, Alberta), and take on-line courses with people who know their stuff.

    I looked into taking Osteopathic treatment, but it's a little too pricey for me at the moment (being a student, it's 200 initial fee followed by 100-150 per meeting... I plan to take the initial meeting), I am able to invest $1000- $2000 over a course of 6 months.

    I should clarify, I do not want to treat others, I just want to make adjustments on myself and have an understanding of these things, because I believe it's worth my time.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Just google postural deviations, if you have slumped shoulders hyper kyphosis is the term your after, also lower cross syndrome, ask dealtwith no doubt he will be reading up all he can to regurgitate someone elses write up as a response to my post in a few days time

    Imsparticus without seeing your posture it can be hard to suggest things that will really help but id be looking at strengthening the glutes n stretching the hamstrings, psoas and shoulders/chest.

    S**** has loads of clever excercises that help straighten things out and promote good functional movement patterns which is a big part of things, its a shame if it wasnt for *****s like dealtwith this might have been a thread that would help and educate people

    A good reminder is having someone tape an X on your back while of good posture so if you slouch itll pull and remind you, still rubbish though really just fire fighting you should be looking at correcting the root cause not the after effects of the bad posture.

    Interesting to see DW making some very stupid statements because he thinks no one is here to expose his blag, i remember when he would google his responses a lot more thorougly before posting, seems now a 5 minute google is all he needs to be an expert

    S**** your spot on I met Evander Holyfield who isn't a big man and he had perfect position of the chin as well as perfect posture.

    Your right! resistance bands doesn't require gravity to move weight unlike free weights.

    Gravity is there all the time, no matter what you do. But by changing your environment makes a difference. As does time, theres a clue. :D

    An example would be your exercise bike because it's doesn't require gravity to move the pedals unlike the horizontal bicycle allowing greater improvement?
