ABOUT THIS VIDEO
In this video, Matt demonstrates a convenient exercise to get rid of hunchback posture.
Using this exercise, you can train the muscles of the mid and upper back to achieve and maintain better posture. This exercise can help you with your hunchback (kyphosis) and forward head posture.
As with any exercise, this must be done regularly and consistently to get results that last. How long it takes will depend on how bad your posture is to start with and how much your daily habits put you in bad posture. In general, we recommend holding the position for 2.5 to 3.5 minutes and doing the exercise once or twice a day (more if your body responds well to it). If you spend a lot of time in a hunchback position or you find this exercise extremely difficult, you may need to do it more than someone who has less kyphosis.
If someone has a good overall lifestyle that allows them to stay out of bad posture for longer periods, they may need to do this very little.
This exercise is often all you need! But if you want more detailed guidance (including lifestyle tips and hacks and a straightforward home workout designed to fix your hunchback), check out the Hunchback Fix program at www.uprighthealth.com/hunchback 💪😀
That killed. I could barely last three min (sitting down). I KNOW THIS WILL WORK. Thank you so much! 😍

What about when I sleep? If I put a pillow under my head, I'm essentially pushing my head forward of my shoulders.
Should I remove the pillow from under my head and put a pillow under my knees?
I've removed one of the 3 pillows I usually sleep using. That was a week ago. Man did it mess with my lower back! Finally seem to have adjusted to it so in a few days will start using just one pillow as am sure this has been a large contributor to my hunch posture. Once I've adjusted to that going to increase the wall sits and maybe start on some core exercises. Only drawback to the decrease in pillows is my snoring has increased in frequency and volume. Hubby verified that increase but I could tell by how my throat feels when I wake up. Hopefully he doesn't end up sleeping on the couch 😣
@@TheWiseOne20 Did it work?
You will never know what body posture you had until someone takes a picture with you
Or makes fun of you lol
@@jjdawson79 haha yeah :(
@@nsewarte hey man, I hope you're doing better health wise. Hunch backs are no joke, don't be too sad over it
@@corinabanu7556 im doing alot better thanks for asking, im try and keep my shoulders back. But my back is grown weird so a hunchback will always be there :)
This is so true.
there's a lot of gamers out there that need to see this video
IF you're a gamer or sit long hour in front of your PCs you should really invest in a gaming chair. Tesoro brand is great and cheap too.
I agree - for instance my brother :)
If only you knew what was to come bro

What gamers need is this levus.co
RIP to all the people in the comment section who said they would update in a week but died doing the exercise for 3 days straight
Lol 😂😂😂😂
I deliberately looked this up because a good friend brought my slight hunch to my attention. Losing weight and fixing my back are part of my plan to better myself.
How have you been going Erik? I hope you've had some success!
did you do it?
I looked it up, too, after looking at photographs and videos of myself. I was shocked, and then yesterday my mum saw me getting out of my car and said I need to straighten up. Hope it works.
This was in my recommend. UA-cam is trying to tell me something

This BEAUTIFUL wall
This method is amazing!
I have had severely bad posture for 5 years of my life, and I couldn’t get rid of it no matter how hard I tried. I started doing this method for 10 minutes a day 4 days ago, and I can already notice a significant improvement. It’s easier for me to stand up straight and hold the position for a longer period of time. I also noticed that I am standing up a little bit straighter subconsciously.
Thank you!
That's beautiful. It's about conditioning the mind and body and you are putting in the work and getting the benefits
What if I dont have a beautiful piece of wall
ugly walls work too
Then you no fancy.
I feel so bad for you,may God bless your soul.

@@minaalgeria5688 it should in some months
I've watched several practitioners presenting this sort of posture correcting excercises - YOU are the most watchable : ) Not too much talk, a sense of humor, clear instructions for everyday people and graciously not all about you. I will definitely share this and wish you all the best.
when youtube feels responsible with our posture..
Yodi Ardianto when this is in my recommended as an apology
When you search this video up cause your posture is that bad
When you're in denial so you say UA-cam recommend this.
Ye I searched this up😢 my back hurts all the time and I’m only 15😢

I like this guy
This dude is so chill watching this cured my anxiety
He was right about what he said when u lift off the wall. I feel like I'm stuck in the perfect posture. 😌
This is awesome! This exercise worked for me right away! My whole life I've been told to "stand up straight" and "pay attention to my posture and it will improve". I knew there had to be an exercise that would strengthen my muscles and naturally improve my posture without me having to be thinking about it all the time. I had the intention to improve my posture and soon enough your video popped up on my app. This is a simple exercise and a small investment to make that makes all the difference on our appearance and even on our self esteem. From the first time I did it (for 3 minutes) I could feel my chest opening up and lifting! I've noticed that my shoulders are not hunched and my posture is GREAT without me having to worry about it! In fact, I tend to now straighten out often as though my muscles demanded it. I have done yoga for years and that was not sufficient to provide this effect. I'm writing this today because I want to thank you and let you know that I view this exercise as one of my Christmas gifts to me. Thank you so much!
Maridali Gonzalez How long did it take to notice a difference?
BAT T I describe above that from the start I could feel my chest and shoulders opening up and sort of forcing me to straighten my posture. In the video he says it is not easy for everyone to get to the effective exercise position right away. Good Luck!
@@maridaligonzalez4440 How is it now. Big improvement?
Can u tell me how old u r I’m 58 yrs old and my posture has been bad since I was a teenager I too was told to stand up straight but didn’t listen now I am in pin from it everyday so do u think it would still work for me at my age
Can u tell me if this exercise would still work at my age of 58 I was told to stand up straight was I was a teenager but I didn’t listen now it’s been causing me pain everyday for years now, I would definitely try this if u can honestly tell me it’s not to late for me. I purchased the posture pump for my neck and back I’ve been using both of them for about 2 weeks now I really need to correct this it’s taken over my quality of life.
0:18 I thought that was something quite different for a second!
I thought I was the only one who saw it.....and started scrolling the comments to check if another person saw it
i had to go back like three time to clarify what i was seeing
what is that???
Lol
😂😂😂
Well, I have to say, I was a bit skeptical. And that was not easy. But after just one session, you're 100% right, I can feel my posture wanting to fix itself! I will be adding this to my daily routine, a few times a day, as I sit in front of a PC all day for work.
Thanks, Matt!
My partner tells me all the time I need to "straighten up".
I'm aware of how poor my posture is and I think I've found a solution.
I just did three minutes of my lower back flat against the wall.
My head is many inches from the wall so I know it's really bad.
Thank you for giving me a chance at improving myself.
This is amazing. I've been having cramped and painful shoulders for about 10 years. The pain usually isn't that bad, but it's always there. I just got used to it. Now I've been doing this for a few days and the pain is almost gone. My shoulders haven't felt this good in 10 years. Thank you soooo much!
Goed bezig Marit, je houdt het al drie jaar vol.
“Beautiful piece of wall” -subscribed because of this. Thanks for sharing
Jax haha
Wall goals.
No one:
Absolutely no one:

- Thank you for the content btw
Haha! No worries :)
I really appreciate people like this who take time out of their lives to make very informative and helpful videos like this... I know some might argue and say that they make videos to "make money for creating UA-cam content" but they can choose to create any type of content they want it doesn't have to be informative helpful content like this it could be ridiculous videos like watching them play an online game or some other worthless useless activity but they choose to make content that is going to be helpful and possibly change people's lives for the better ..
This guy has a great personality
Best single exercise I've ever seen for this problem. Literally was standing better and straighter after the first time. Didn't believe that was even close to possible, but when I got off the wall I was standing straighter, and continued that way. Will be doing this at least two times a day. Amazing. Thank you!
This video is a gem; not only for the content but also for the way it´s been explained (considering I´m not an English native). Thanks for that clear tune and message. New subscriber over here
Thank you. I’m in my mid 60’s and having spent 40+ years in jobs that involved sitting at a desk and on phones and I have a really bad posture so I shall start doing this from today. Appreciate you taking the time to post it on UA-cam. Kind regards
Thank you for this training style man. You are honest and friendly without ego i think. Good job respect !
Theres one proven technique to flatten and straighten your posture do notvuse pillow wgen sleeping at night thats 7 to 8 hours exercise. You can notice the difference in one month.
No gym no pill no sweat no wasted time
@@edlopez4797 did it work for u?
@Evo Courses This is such a pathetic way of thinking.
I did this while listening to the video again just to make sure I got everything. I looked in the mirror afterwards just to see if it did anything on the first try and OH MY GOSH! it's amazing, my shoulders are sitting about half way closer to where they should be! I didn't expect that much improvement on my first try! And like you said it's much easier to try to stand up right! Thank you so much for the tip!!!!!
Didn’t realize how weak my middle back muscles were until I tried this exercise for the first time. They were feeling sore and fatigued soon after I started. Definitely going to keep doing this just to at least strengthen my back
I did it my first time today, and it actually felt better afterwards
You seem like a really nice guy, I like your voice and style of videos.
gonna be back here everyday until i see results!
day 1: just found this video, and i’ve had bad posture for a long time, but i’ve been getting a lot of general self-improvement done, so i figured why not fix my posture? my back feels good after it, looking forward to doing it again
day 2: i came back. did it again, my back feels good. i’m gonna try sleeping with only one pillow tonight
Hey what are your redults,why you stoped writting
After one session I felt a major difference and I see a difference thanks a lot man 🙏🏾❤️
just got to your second hunchback video, even more useful than the previous one, thank you so much!
This helps seniors walk upright instead of leaning forward. Excellent posture corrector!
I was prepared to scoff at this until I tried and then heard the snap, crackle, pop in my neck and upper back. This is fantastic!!! No more computer back for me. My wife and girlfriend will be very happy. 😂
Wife AND girlfriend?....
Is it works? Please update.
My wife and girlfriend. Lmfao
MARK K. Yes yes yes no
I'll follow you on this because wife and that girlfriends thing. I'm single af
Excellent communicator.Does not fill with distracting tangential info.
This was the best video I have seen on posture. Thank you so much. I love your kind reassuring personality.
Only been a week and a half and already I can now do this exercise. Used to feel slight numbness in my back just below the shoulder blades, this is gone too! Thanks Upright Health
Just wanted to say thanks - I’ve been trying to fix my posture for months now and this video really really helped! The effects were almost immediate for me after a three minute session :)
this exercise gave me great results after such a short time
i have been doing this for a few days and my body feels much better and i also notice my confidence getting better as well, thank you so much for this!
I’m very happy I found this, in just two days my lower back has returned to a straight back posture, now all I have to worry about is my upper back, this exercise is a life saver
I've always been told that i walk like someone that's been starving for 2weeks and I've been that eversl since, tried many workouts but didn't work, but then i tried yours and i was fix in days
Very nicely done video. I like your educative yet friendly approach. I started doing this today and it hurt, but I will persevere. As you said, it takes time.
Holy mackerel! This is incredible!! My back/posture felt immediate results. Can’t wait to make it become part of my daily routine. Thank you for sharing this video!!!
This is the best exercise I have ever seen on the internet. Thank you for this.
I love this! Thanks Matt for providing such simple yet effective techniques.
Often don't even notice that am "slumping" while sitting or standing... but if I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror or window, I can clearly see it.
I am a guitar player ("classical nylon string") and I know I slouch doing that too. I want to see if I can improve my "playing posture" using this technique as well.
Update:
Well, I've been working on this for about 11 days now... Doing at least two 3.5 minute sessions every day. While I still can't touch the back of my head to the wall, I'm slowly getting closer. The biggest improvement I seeing (actully "feeling") is when am away from the wall and simply walking or standing, I'm beginning to get a sense of what my posture is doing and can feel when I'm close to getting it right. And that feeling is a good and positive one. So I'll keep working on it. I'm hoping that after a couple more weeks, I can actually begin to touch my head to the wall (without "cheating") but I'm not going to lock myself into an absolute time frame. I'll get there when I get there but will be happy to feel the progress in improved posture.
Pretty good exercise! Tried it once and can already feel a difference. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for your videos. I'm getting stronger & feeling better thanks to your wonderful & compassionate video exercises. It would have cost me too much to go to a Physical Therapy facility to correct my muscular flaws. I found a sturdy chair in the dumpster that a remodeling restaurant threw out! Almost as good as the walls you lean against. You are awesome for helping us.
I wish you guys could understand how I love this thing that I got last month, best creation ever
This excersise is amazing. I have been hunching over for ages, and I've tried so many stretches and changes to my posture and nothing worked. I've tried this for thw first time and already feel im standing up straighter. God bless you man!
Wow. Thank you. So simple yet extremely effective. I suffered an injury to my back where I landed on the thoracic and upper spine . Took 50 days to recover and and 2 weeks later my back and lower limbs were neurologically sensitive. At my worse it took me 45 mins , with a cane, to walk a quarter of a mile. At one time I thought I wasn’t going to heal. Therapy,minimal paid meds, and lots of stretching and deciding to revisit scoliosis treatment got me to the point where I could attempt this exercise. Oh what a relief it is. Thanks again.
You gave me the motivation and the tools to fix my posture. I’ve been working on it for a month now and I’ve gotten to the point where I can hold good posture, now I just have to make it my resting postion. My dad would tell me to stand up straight, but what does that mean? Now I know, you are the chad king my brother.
Thanks so much for sharing this information, I am nearly 50 and my desk job has taken its toll on my body. My thoracic spine is stiff and I have constant upper back pain between the shoulder blades. I am keeping everything crossed that I have found a fix! I have just completed my first 3 minutes and boy I felt it. With increasing screen time this is a major challenge for the developed world, I just walk around me office and see the forward head tilt from near enough everyone.
I’ve been started this workout since 2 month ago and It really works.thank you so much
I'm going to do this twice a day for 3 months, taking a photo every day as well. I'll reply to this comment weekly with updates. At the end of the 3 months, I'll put the photos together to make a timelapse video, which I will post on my youtube channel.
edit: video's out on my channel, there haven't been any changes. I think that it's because i spent the rest of the day in front of the computer. If you are gonna do these exercises, make sure to also keep good posture throughout the day or something.
1st Week: The pain I would feel right after doing this has stopped after the third day. Other than that, I don't feel much change (But to be honest I've only done it once a day, not twice like I said so). From now on I'll try to do some wall angels and some other exercises along with this.
Yall never update til the end
@@YasminAsaad400 Let's see.
@@inexplicabro by the way do you put ur lower and upper back flat through the wall? And do your shoulders touch the wall or not cuz I'm struggling with that
@@YasminAsaad400 My lower and upper back do touch the wall. My shoulders are rounded so they don't exactly touch the wall properly, but I lift them and kinda do wall angels to make them touch the wall, but I don't think that's necessary as in the video he doesn't specify that the shoulders need to touch the wall.
I am getting better. It's been a week and I can feel my posture is improving. Thank you
This is amazing. Thank you so much. I have Meniere's which makes me feel like I need to look at the floor when I'm walking, and had become so round shouldered and slightly hunched.. computer work doesn't help. I've only been doing this for a few days but my posture has improved immensely and it's easier to breathe , somehow. You are a star.
THIS exercise is by far, the BEST I’ve ever seen, and tried. Thank you! ⚓️

EXCELLENT advice. Thanks dude. Appreciate this! I've watched numerous other videos on posture, with complex weight training regimes, that were too awkward to do when posture was hunched. But your advice is applicable and gets effective results fast! I can feel the difference, and see the notable improvement immediately after 5mins of exercise against wall. Your method really pinpoints the key areas that need strengthening.
Does it stick or does the body go back to slumping after awhile?
This is the most effective way for correcting Posture. I have been doing for a week and i see a huge difference now. Absolutely helpful. Many thanks from Somalia.
thank u so so so much! my back posture was my biggest insecurity, now i’m feeling way better about it :)
This is really awesome, the first time I do this and my traps and mid back feel way less tight. Also able to turn my neck around further, gonna keep doing this when I wake up and before I go to bed, thanks!
Did iy work
Dear Sir, thanks for sharing this lovely exercise.
It looks very easy when you demonstrate but it's really tough to perform. Anyways, I shall continue doing it till I get rid of my stiff and hunch back.
One more point Sir.
Your commentry and presentation style is absolutely fantastic.
It's a pleasure to listen to you.

Your videos on hunchback and posture are wonderful. Thank you so, so much.
I just want to say thank you for not giving up. 10 years of back pain and finally found someone to help. I knew my muscles were responsible but didnt have a club where to start. First 100$ i make im getting your program !
I've been doing this for 4 days now and I can already see progress! Thank you so much!
How is it now?
@@lajosrab4734 Much, much better. I still do this a couple of times a week in the morning. At first I had trouble staying in it for 30 second or so but it got easier fast. After the targeted muscles got strong enough, it wasn't hard to keep a good posture like it was before finding this excercise.
Just keep at it and it will make a difference.
@@reallyeffingcooltechnodudehow much time did it take you to significantly reduce your hunchback?
@@onana947 Around 2-3 weeks, if I remember correctly. It's not a silver bullet that will fix everything just by itself. You need to also make a conscious effort to keep an upright posture which will also get easier with time. Good luck!
Wow! Did it 1 time and back immediately felt stronger!

Simple, straightforward and easy to remember. I have watched a few exercises but they feels overly complicated. This is probably the only one i will remember and try it.

It seems like almost every UA-cam expert has different recommendations on how to and how not to treat this problem. How is the layperson to know which to follow?
I removed my Rembrandt originals from my wall to try this. Very useful!
If you do this right, you can certainly feel those muscles along the spine lengthening along the back of your neck.
So fancy...
Please forward your Rembrandt's to our office for safekeeping.
This might even increase height then

Of course, but it's more fun if you say it
I have the velvet Rembrandt with the bull dogs shooting pool.Perhaps his most favorite work as the guy at the flea market said as he sold it to me. I only paid 25 k for this but I’m sure will be worth millions soon.
This exercise is awesome and I already see the results. Thanks for the video!
this was so simple to follow along, thanks mate.
Wow, this is definitely harder than I thought it would be! I really feel it in the mid-back, and I feel like I cannot tuck my chin enough. Gonna keep it up, for sure! A straighter posture not only makes you taller, it makes you look more confident, too! The hunched over look is definitely not a good look! Thanks for the video!

Thank you. Just tried this and honestly, it was tough. Made is 2.17 minutes only. Had to keep reminding myself to push my lower back against the wall, shoulders back, chin down a bit...Could definitely feel the muscles wondering what the heck was going on.
This is Amazing 🤩🤩 I am doing this I had hunchback had already gone to physiotherapy but to maintain after it was difficult because of my Phone usage and Studies ...Thank you so much this was Revolutionary ❤
Your videos are always helpful. Thanks.
For everyone wondering if this exercise is worth doing, YES, IT IS! After a week of doing it regularly i got rid of rounded shoulders, and my back is straighter than ever. So stop complaining 'bout your bad posture and do this exercise. You' ll see results in no time.
Thanks for the video! I love this exercise!
You are a genius. Greetings from Scotland.
I greatly appreciate this video. Love it. Since I was a kid, I've walked with my head down and I would always get told "chin up!" OR some variation. Now I have this noticeable hump in my upper back where my shoulder blades seem to curve out and I'm always self conscious about it. Glad it kould be rectified.
I just tried doing this exercise and the immediate effect I can feel is actually insane, I stand much more upright! This is probably very short term and as my muscles relax again I will slouch a bit more again, but for now it's a very similar feeling to when you stand in a doorway and push your arms towards the outside against the frame of the door. When you do that for a minute and then step out of the doorway, your arms will feel like they're levitating so I think this is a similar effect now :D Can definitely see this make long term improvements for my posture though, thanks a lot!
hey man how is your posture
Tried this exercise, my 1st time and saw immidiate results! Years of having a hunchback gone!! Im on day 3 now and walking straight up it feels amazing!
SAME
:-D Happy to hear it!
SAME!!!
After the 1st few minutes of doing this, I am more aware of my posture. Will do it more often. Thanks!
you lowkey changing my life.
This really helps guys. Honestly I’ve had the best results in 2 weeks and I’m continuously doing it. I feel more confident and taller. It’s so simple because it isn’t a stupid 5 exercise workout which takes long but it’s so simple and easy.
After5 months did it work for you
2 years lol update ?
Do you still do it
I did this for the first time today about 5 mins because my parents and relatives always nagged me about my posture... It didn't exactly fatigue my back muscles but did make my back more comfortable with straighter posture, this is really helpful!
