Young or old, athlete or couch potato, strengthening posture with daily StrongPosture™ exercise is an intelligent LifeHabit for aging well.
“Straighten up and don’t slouch” doesn’t work. To change your posture, you need to teach your body new habits and change how you move. Daily StrongPosture™ exercise builds posture awareness, strength and control and, along with StrongPosture™ LifeHabits, helps relieve back and neck pain and get you moving and feeling well. If you see a Certified Posture Exercise Professional (CPEP) you'll also learn LifeHabits ranging from how breathe deeper for reduced stress and more energy or how to use exercise bands, foam rollers and other low-tech tools to help you become conscious of how you are moving.

From birth to death, life is a series of cycles, and posture is an omnipresent but usually unrecognized factor in many cycles, but one that we can affect.
Posture shapes how your body moves, and your body’s patterns of motion shape your posture in cycles both vicious and virtuous. And our sitting society, where we spend hours and hours just sitting essentially still at work AND play—
- watching TV
- driving a car
- computing--typing and clicking oblivious to our posture
- and then relaxing—it all promotes poor posture and lack of motion.
Daily StrongPosture™ exercise creates an awareness of posture, and once you can feel the difference between StrongPosture and WrongPosture, simple changes in your habits can make a big difference in how you look!

With age, the joints stiffen and muscles get tight. The common bent over posture of old age occurs as a result of the body adapting to long-term poor posture. As posture becomes more bent forward the muscles have to work harder to keep the body balanced, which makes the muscles progressively tighter. Choosing a daily PostureExercise is an anti-aging LifeHabit to keep your body moving. Age is a state of mind... as well as body.
The StrongPosture™ ball and balance posture exercises move the spine and other joints in seldom used patterns, stretching tight muscles and ligaments. When a joint is kept moving fully and freely the muscles controlling that joint stay strong, the joint stays lubricated, and the normal mechanical stress in the joint is distributed over a greater surface area. Plus, these exercise focus on your balance, so the body's balance muscles are worked and strengthened.
