In fairness, Godz has the worst posture that I think I've ever seen in the video gaming scene. Probably something about not wearing his glasses/contacts enough, so he leans forward to see the screen all the time.

Doubt it. The fact that he is a "professional gamer" actually explains a lot. People with office jobs where they have to slouch their shoulders forward and leaning forward too much with their head creates inbalances like this. Quite hard to fix, but it is possible.

... :( My neck is like that too..

Years and years of gaming, too poor to go pro, I've always played with less than recommended system specs.

Tuck your chin in more bro. And try and stand straight. It will be kind of hard, but you will get used to it, and the body will conform.

good posture will prevent this
at this stage you need therapy from a physiotherapist or something

>>41610748
Pinch your shoulderblades together and try to keep your shoulders back, tuck your chin a bit.

Also, see a legitimate chiropractor. While it is possible to correct on your own, it is far easier with professional help

>>41610980
It will make it a lot better. Maybe not 100% fix it, as I think you... sorry, I mean your friend, has lived with this bad posture his entire life, so the bones and spine has been "fused" together at this point. But you can make it a lot better, and potentially have a "normal"-ish posture.

I've seen much worse. I knew a computer science lecturer that looked like Quasimodo. It's totally possible to get like that if you keep up poor habits. Just fix your posture whenever you notice yourself slouching and you'll be fine.

>>41611136
How did you fix?

Spine: flat but not rigid
shoulders: relaxed but not slouched
feet: flat, shoulder length apart
chest: open but not puffed out

Feels extreme at first, but looks normal to others. Same as how slight smile = pleasant neutral

Upright rows fixed me. Like rope on cable machine, elbows high. Build the traps and other muscles around your upper back. Which also helps deadlifting.

First thing I do on any chair I sit on is loosen the tilting mechanism all the way.

The most optimal position for the human back is like 120-130 degrees, not 90 degrees.

You should be leaning BACK not forward. Leaning forward is what causes computer guy posture.

Good lord

>>41610661
to explain this: your posture should be as if there is a straight line through your body. Your head, shoulders, hips and the middle of your feet should all be on that line. the exercise that Anon here mentions is a good way to get there and will allow you to feel what it is like. It will feel weird at first but believe me when i say good posture really makes a difference. You reduce the risk of back pain as you age(since ALL of the weight of your torso will rest on the base of your spine rather than being supported throughout the body) and you will seem taller and more confident. People have mentioned it to me that they see me first in a crowd because of my posture.

we're all gonna make it bros

>>41611086
most people's head sits too high, correct head position kinda feels like you're holding your head down. An important part of it is it's relation to the chest, the chest/ribs should be rising towards the head. Kinda like a magnetic relationship

>>41619387
fixing posture is about always catching yourself. You ain't gonna fix your posture straight away, you have to slowly break the habit and retrain your body. Don't let other people ruin your posture because it makes them feel uncomfortable - that just screams insecurity on both sides. Bad posture will fuck you up when you get older, don't let people dictate that shit

>>41619484
you have to do it every time. Keep going anon and you will break the habit and will reap the rewards

I think your heart is in the right place but this'll make some people stand like they got a stick up their anus.


Good exercises are pullups, dips and imo the best thing are headstands and using a tumpline to support weight. They'll make you stand up straighter. The only two things I would recommend to consciously fix are keeping the back of your neck in extension and not standing with legs locked out.

Lifts doesnt do much. The best and only proper way is to learn how it feels to be in correct position and then maintain that throughout the day. Find way to remind yourself of it. It will take ~1 month for it to be your new posture.

"1 hour a day spent on fixing the issue wont help when you spend the other 23 to fuck it up" is the reason why lifting doesnt work. Posture is about habit, not strength.

>>41637379
Start benching pressing, you will probably be good at it.

>>41637626
The thing is posture isnt important when it comes to injuries or pain.
The only reason to fix your posture is to change how you look. And having perfect posture doesnt always look good for everyone. If it makes you look weird then some slouching may look better on you.
And what looks best on you may change as you gain muscle too.

I'm a programmer. I live and work with people like this. I am their friend. I always try to give them advice that would help them gain weight and fix their posture. Some take it and work with it and see real positive outcomes in their life. Others ignore me because "I'm prying in to things I shouldn't".

Be careful how you come off, dude. Nerds can be a finicky bunch who don't like to be proven wrong unless you can make it sound helpful rather than berating.

I used to have something like the golem curve, not quite as pronounced. I got it from sitting in my chair playing vidya all day on my PC.

OC

left is relax posture
>bad chinlet
>neck curve
>upper and lower back curves
>protruding gut
>noticeable gyno

right is how i stand if i'm out in public
>not great, but fairly normal looking

i've always had bad posture, but the past several years i extreme slouch like this http://www.carlybird.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/slouching.jpg

i also prop myself up on one elbow in bed for several hours at a time. it hurts my shoulder then i switch sides.

i'm not too worried about it because i can maintain the right-side posture for a few hours while i'm out-and-about, but am i causing irreparable damage by spending most of my day slouched like some caveman?
