Besides getting regular exercise and trying to eat as healthfully as you can, you need to monitor your posture, especially at the computer and when you study. Here are a few tips to follow:
- Fill in the space between your back and the back of the chair : When sitting in a chair, sit straight so that the space between your lower back and the chair is no longer existent.
- Keep your neck, back and heels aligned : If you draw an imaginary vertical line down your back, your neck and heels should hit in the same spot, too.
- Keep your feet flat on the floor : Make sure you keep your feet flat on the floor when you're sitting at your desk.
- Keep your knees at a 90-degree angle when sitting : Remember to keep everything aligned. Don't tuck your knees in, which can make you start to hover and hunch over your keyboard.
- Draw your shoulders back and relax : Draw your right shoulder, then your left shoulder back and then down,and then take a deep breath and relax. After working for several minutes, monitor the position of your shoulders, and make sure you're not hunched over.
- Evenly distribute your weight :You shouldn't lean over to one side when you sit, you should distribute your body weight evenly between both hips.
