Posture Correction

Womans Day magazine had a great little article about this topic. These exercises are from Teresa Tapp, creator of the T-Tapp workout method.

Posture exercises to do while sitting:

Align knees with ankles and hips, and point toes forward. Press feet into the floor until you feel your glutes (buttock muscles) tighten (hold for 4 seconds). Then lift your big toes while keeping the balls of your feet firmly on the floor (hold for 4 seconds).

Press lower back against chair and suck in tummy (hold for 4 seconds). Then lift ribs, pull shoulders back and push knees out toward little toes (hold for 4 seconds.) Repeat 4 times.
