Correct posture leads to better blood and energy flow in your body, breathing and digestion become easier, frame-holding muscles will not cramp, knees and hips are not overburdened, nor legs, nor spine.

Let's create the correct position consciously. First, try to adjust the shoulders, the hips, the knees and the ankles to each other. A good exercise is to stand back to the wall or lie back on the floor for a few minutes every day, and fix the feeling...
Why is correct posture so uncomfortable?
The correct position can be unusual, tiring and uncomfortable for those who have been standing crumpled for years or even for decades. The reason for this is incorrectly developed muscles. With regular practise, exercises that strengthen the back and abs, this tired feeling will disappear along with your complaints about your posture and balance.
