Poor sitting posture can put your spine out of alignment and cause muscle and bone problems.
About 1 in 4 U.S. adults spend eight or more hours a day sitting, and up to 85% experience back or neck pain.
Certain sitting positions can help strengthen core muscles and promote spinal alignment to improve your posture.
Maintaining proper posture for extended periods often requires ergonomic adjustments to your workspace if you work at a desk.
Use an adjustable chair with lumbar (lower back) support.
If your desk is too high or low, consider an adjustable sit-stand desk or a computer monitor stand.
Your sitting position significantly impacts how you feel, especially if you sit for prolonged periods.
Bad sitting posture can trigger or worsen back pain and increase the risk of chronic pain and musculoskeletal problems.
Take a break every one to two hours to stand up, stretch, and walk around. Perform neck rolls, shoulder shrugs, and leg stretches to relax your muscles.
