Level 2 (week 2): Maintaining Neutral Spine Alignment at Home
Now that you know how to get into neutral spine alignment, lets condition you to spend a majority of your day from healthy posture.
Level 2 of the Healthy Posture Club progresses each exercise to a higher level of challenge. You joint clearing routine expands to include lumbar spine and cervical spine mobility exercises designed to improve your access to Pelvic Curl® and Head Nod®. You daily workouts start to challenge your ability to sit, stand and walk maintaining neutral spine alignment.
You Healthy Posture Challenge at this level is to spend a majority of your workday from neutral spine alignment. After performing your hourly mobility exercise (4 seated chest lifts + spine twists) scoot to the edge of your chair at start the next hour in NSA without back support. If your job requires extended periods of standing perform 4 standing bony rhythms as your hourly mobility exercise. Remember to stand with a staggard stance to maintain equal weightbearing. STOP shifting to the left!!!
