Thank you so much! I am a voice teacher that always teach my students about correct posture, because I have seen how much the right or wrong (esp. neck, and of course the spine) posture/position will bring a significant impact to your voice production. Postural AWARENESS is important indeed. If I may share, I always teach my students that posture is a product of "heart". IMHO, our mental attitude, esp. how do we think or see of ourselves, is very significant toward our posture, the way we walk, or we stand, or even talk. Our muscles memories the repeated references of our mind. I think that will help us to have a postural awareness, and then build a better/correct posture (which I myself am still doing it continuously until today). Thank you so much for sharing all this, it will definitely help my vocal students.
I started working on my posture a year ago and it’s improved drastically. I went from having the posture of an elderly woman to almost having perfect posture. I had kyphosis and forward head posture along with forward rounded shoulders And anterior pelvic tilt. Not to mention uneven hips and shoulders. Like seriously awkward and physically uncomfortable posture. My neck hurt and I couldn’t turn it to the side all the way and I physically couldn’t stand up straight no matter how hard I tried. I was legit stuck like that. This was from being unemployed for a long time while being extremely sedentary due to depression and lack of motivation. The first thing that helped tremendously and instantly was a combination of myofascial release of the chest muscles followed by wall angels. The next thing I noticed to help was stretching the front of my neck. I’d do this by pulling down on my chest and tilting my head back and experimenting with different angles. Recently, I’ve been trying to fix my anterior pelvic tilt and forward rounded shoulders. I’ve been doing stretches for the front of my hips and exercises to strengthen my hip flexors. I also started stretching the sides of my calves and that has helped loosen the tight muscles in my legs and get them to work better. My calves have always been really small and I just noticed today that they look huge lol. Idk what happened. I’ve just been stretching them. So that’s a plus lol. All of the exercises and stretches I’ve done so far have helped me. Some way more than others. There’s a plethora of videos to follow along for everything I’ve mentioned. The number one thing I’ve learned, though, is that you get the best results when you stretch and strengthen your muscles. In that order. You’ve gotta work that muscle right away after you stretch it, so it doesn’t have a chance to get short and tight again. Strengthening it will help keep it from doing that. The rest really is habit.
I learned exercises and stretches from many videos and kept doing the ones that made me feel quick improvements. These included doing wall angels, stretching hip flexors, strengthening glutes, and working on my core by doing vacuums and crunches. The exercise he showed for the neck in this video is helpful, too. For me, it was easier to do certain exercises after stretching first. Like the glutes were easier to activate after stretching the front of my hips, for example. Sometimes you need to stretch one muscle in order to activate it, and sometimes you need to stretch a muscle to activate one on the opposite side. This is long explanation, but it’s so worth the extra time to read and apply. I seriously recommend you always stretch before exercises, and strengthen every muscle you stretch.
Your videos are so well made. As a scientist, I appreciate your commitment to using peer reviewed articles to back up your claims. I am very excited to see more videos. Your channel is the only subscription that I have turned on notifications for, I genuinely want to see more of what you have to say. Very interested to see your follow up video on hyperkyphosis.
Thank you so much for these kind words and support! Comments like this really keep me going! Il do by best in the future to sustain this quality in my content 💪
@@YiannisChristoulas any estimation for when the video on hyperkyphosis will come out? I'm anxious waiting for it. This one was already so good, but feels incomplete :-) love your content, recent subscriber & notifications on.
@@saludosasumadre6982 Yes I'm making the video during this period, the problem with this type of videos is that it takes too long to read all the studies and draw a safe and helpful conclusion. I promise I'm doing the fastest I can.
Yiannis, your scientific approach, judgement, analysis and presentation are spectacular! I hope that you will continue to develop your following. You deserve the greatest success for all your efforts. Thanks.

@@YiannisChristoulasWell u explained about the forward head posturee which is caused by the hyperkyphosis. 😌😌 And wht about the forward head posture which is caused by hypokyphosis ( which caused due to sway back) 😌😌😌
Bro, you should make a video about side splits. Your videos about front splits is close to 1kk, why are you not doing it? Your videos are insanely good
thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. the pain, soreness, and headaches come from a forward head and bad posture is real. 6 + years of suffering. couldn't believe all this pain is coming from forward-head and bad posture until I start doing the exercises, I felt much better. God bless you for helping us for free. all the best
great content and critical reviwe of this topic! i have a question to the health problems that arise with forward head posture: who‘s the literature on that? because i also read some studies that actually say that there might not be a correlation between forward head posture and neck pain. what‘s your opinion on this? what does the correction of posture seems benefitial or necessary for? thanks for your answer!
That’s not all you need to do. Not if you have weak muscles, shortened muscles, or muscles that are so weak they’ve atrophied and you can’t even feel them. If you already have very poor posture, weak and tight muscles, then this alone will do very little to improve your posture. However, if you’re trying to avoid bad posture or improve your posture, then you do need to avoid sitting with poor posture for long periods of time.
What if we think we have a cervical Kyphosis? My back seems pretty neutral/ straight but then at the top at the base of my neck, there is a pronounced bump. Could that be my cervical spine and not thoracic? It feels like I just can’t straighten my neck out, but can’t tell if that’s coming from the thoracic or if it’s my neck.
Hi Yiannis, I've to say that your video are very informative and one of the few that are really addressing the problem from the right perspective. Suffering from a upper cross syndrome due some kind of predisposition plus years of bad posture in front of pc (I'm a developer) I can confirm that is useless (and potentially causing more issues at C5-C6 level) trying to fix only the forward head if you have also a very pronounced postural hyperkyphosis, or also (taking another step back) an anterior pelvic tilt. As you mentioned is important to address all the dysfunctional components, and sometimes it's a real challenge because many cases need some degree of personalized assessment. I've the upright go 2 and also in that case I confirm is at the moment the best device I'm aware of for receiving a constant feedback on your kyphotic angulation, too bad It doesn't also monitor lateral inclination. Another environment change that I can suggest for those that stay a lot of time sitting in front of the pc and have rounded shoulder is switching to a split keyboard. Keeping the hands distant have the effect to open the chest and retracts the shoulder blades and this is helping me have a better upper trunk posture. I'm looking forward for your hyperkyphosis videos in the meantime thanks also for providing all the research papers, I'm taking my time to dig deeper into them. This is giving me enough data to plan for a dedicated daily routine to follow consistently and monitor with method the progresses. By the way If you need some kind of help for anything related the argument ( even web development ) or just want to share some infos let me know, I will glad to give an hand!
As someone with this condition the 20 pounds thing feels contradicting. When I'm in forward head posture I'm more relaxed because that's what I'm used to and my body is adapted to, whereas if I straighten my posture so that my head is aligned how it's supposed to be with "0 pounds" I struggle to stay like that, and it's a huge effort to keep it in that posture
Hi there! Thanks for sharing your experience, it is so important to have conversations around each of these topics, I wish I had more time to answer all comments. What you say makes total sense. The 20 pounds thing has to do only with physics, any object that is far away from its vertical support point will be havier to support. The question is why you don't feel this way. First, there is a thing called angle-specific strength. This is a term that describes the development of strength in a joint in a specific angle. For example, you might be very strong in the bottom position of the squat but not so much at 90 degrees. Similarly, when you spend most of your time on a FHP you develop angle-specific strength in this position, driving your head back will force your muscles to work in completely different angles, and of course, in the beginning, it will feel harder. Second, our muscles have different abilities to apply force according to their length. When you're on a FHP you train your neck extensors (that are lengthened at that point) to apply force at a specific length. When you drive your head back at its neutral position these same muscles are shortened and must activate and coordinate in a different (shorter) length. This will also make you feel uncomfortable the first few days. Third, if you have also a curved/hunched back it's impossible (biomechanically) to maintain a neutral position of your head and neck. That being said if you don't first correct the position of the thoracic region it will feel unusually hard to keep your cervical spine in line. If you try again, update us on your progress
From a scientists perspective: A video broken down to the simple steps needed to fix a problem, while also checking if you even really have it. Thank you for sharing what we know is closest to the truth of tackling and improving on a problem! "Only" 15 minutes of information, but saving hours, days or weeks of doubts "whether this is the correct thing to do...?". If you got the problem - this is the best known solution. Period. Thank you for sharing high quality, health improving knowledge in such an appealing way! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Can you do a video on anterior pelvic tilt please? If having a hunchback will affect our efforts on correcting the forward head posture, maybe having an anterior pelvic tilt also affects our efforts on correcting the hunchback position as well
Simply the best and most informative videos on these topics on youtube, great information and the editing is so precise, I can tell a lot of work goes into these!
I just came across your video... please! On the first two exercise, are we going to stand our feet some inches away from the wall or both feet and back all against the wall (fully upright including the feet touching the wall while initiating the exercise? Thank you
Great Video! As well as the exercises, is there not a sleeping position we can lie in? For example, lying on our backs? We are asleep for so many hours, and it would be nice to take advantage of this time.
You're doing it all wrong. You should have started with your right foot and then going up till finding the right testicule. That way you would have had it correct.
Great content! Lots of information and so nicely edited! Thank you very much :-D I work on PC 5days a week for more than 20years, and developed this bad habit you mentioned... Trying to correct it now!
I haven't finished the video yet. I just want to test my understanding of how muscles work. If hyperlordosis is fixed by training the butt and stomach and stretching lower back muscles, the solution to this one would be to train chest and/or shoulders? will be checking in in 10 minutes. Checking in: I was VEEEEEERY wrong. Oh well..
Amazing video! I have a request though. Can you show us how to build our gluteal muscles without building to much on the thighs? Whenever I try to work on my gluteal muscles my thighs grow instead and I see no results.
Hey! I just discovered your videos and theyr fricking amazing! Science rules dude! Where can I find the PDF? Also, I would suggest to make the exercise example parts of video a bit longer!
Hi thanks for a great video! Just wondering if posture correctors/upright make your neck postural muscles weaker since you have to rely on it? Or is that a myth? Thanks in advance 👍
thanks so much, i can go back to life, now.. these take about three to four longer sessions... like three to four days later, this helped removed a knot from the lumbar area/intestinal..which threw off my whole spine.
Ladies, try the Forme bra, expensive but instantly corrects your posture. Make sure to actually measure your chest before buying. I was pleasently surprised it worked for me.
I practiced MMA when I was a teenager. One day, an opponent put me in a nelson lock. I struggled to get out of it, but force was exerted on the back of my neck for 6-10 minutes and me applying counterforce (through my neck) so I could get released. I felt the pain for next 2 days. Now I think that, it's the cause, that I have a forward neck. What's your opinion about it?
This video was a great enlightenment for my. I had neck pain since years and they told my I should work on my posture, so I startet to work on my NECK but nothing gets better. By 2:00 you said that if I had a hyperkyphosis I had to fix this first. So I checked my posture and I would say I have no hunchback, a lightly lowered head and definitly round shoulders. So I have to focus on my shoulders and not my neck isnt it?
Hi, where can I find more information on the myofascial release of the chest muscles and also about the walls angles exercises, you described me!!! I am suffering from the exact things and for the same exact reason, depression, lack of motivation, unemployed and sedentary. You name it! Thanks a lot !
OMG this comes in sooo handy! My mom was just diagnosed with spondylosis and the doctor told her the reason is that she always puts her head FORWARD... so she need to constantly remind herself to put her head back in place. I am sooo sending the link to my mom now!!!

@Yiannis Christoulas: May be you forget to turn on the CC of this video. Would you turn on the CC of this video? Please, and thanks you. ( English is my second language)
posture is determined by the innervation of the musculature. nerve interference to a muscle produces two main effects, elongation and weakness. this is the cause of postural distortion. in the case of so-called forward neck distortion, the scalene anterior neck muscles are neurogenically weak causing the loss and possible reversal of the cervical lordotic curvature. neurogenic muscle weakness cannot be remedied by exercise, only by restoring full innervation by correcting the source of the nerve interference cause.
I tried fix my posture. My neck like this when i high school. Now in university get better, but still not normal 100% i want to fix till 100% please show me the practice not only theory.
I think (in an empiric way) that streight exercises have sense, because, if you only try to be streight, and you are not use to (like my case, I have to say I dont have a good shape and I am not very use to workout), your muscle or your back and neck start to hurt. I am seing you and you are in a good shape, I dont think that you have problems with your muscles.
Awesome video! Have seen a lot of FHP fix videos here on TH-cam but I think I trust you the most. It makes totally sense what you say! I do have a little bit of FHP, kyphosis and rounded shoulders. How should I fix that? I don't know where to start 😕
@@YiannisChristoulas Thank you for your answer! I'm really looking forward to that video. My shoulder has been show stopper for me the last many years (I'm only 27), I think it's maybe some kind of impingement problems maybe due the lack of shoulder mobility caused by my poor posture (my own theory). The problem occurs pretty fast everytime I try to start a new exercise drill and I have noticed that it appears soon after some days doing exercises above my head. I don't do heavy lifting just rehabilitation exercises like angel wings up against the wall, push ups on my knees focusing on the part activating my serratus anterior and stuff like that. Ps I see why I should take of the hyperkyphosis first I think. Tried to look me in the mirror while trying to stand with good posture (straighting my back) and it's like my rounded shoulders almost disappears and the FHP is also really much reduced. Really really looking forward for your video! Have a great day!

so has your forward head posture been fixed from just doing neck tucks? I'm asking because I've been thinking of doing the same.
Looks like this is the most helpful video about about bad neck posture I've seen for now :D
How do I fix hyperkyphosis?
Where can I find that video? 2:41
Great Video! As well as the exercises, is there not a sleeping position we can lie in? For example, lying on our backs? We are asleep for so many hours, and it would be nice to take advantage of this time.
can i do these exercises twice a day?
Great content as always! I appreciate your work and the effort you put into making these videos
Instructions unclear I stretch every day my head is straight the shaft of the penis still bends left. Please help.
You're doing it all wrong. You should have started with your right foot and then going up till finding the right testicule. That way you would have had it correct.
Great content! Lots of information and so nicely edited! Thank you very much :-D
I work on PC 5days a week for more than 20years, and developed this bad habit you mentioned... Trying to correct it now!
Videos like this make me happy.
😄💪
you are brilliant! Thank you so much
This video needs script for subtitles and summary actions. It has valuable information
This is with no doubt the best video I've ever seen about forward head posture. Really really thank you
Easy one is to STOP SUKEN UR DEEK
This video is better than I thought it could be! Thankyou for this great work!
I’m glad that you found helpful!
Thanks, but I haven't been able to find your Hyperkyphosis video. Could I get linked to it?
It’s not published yet! Coming soon!
@@YiannisChristoulas Thanks! I look forward to it!
is the video on hyperkyphosis still forthcoming? I would greatly appreciate it, also thanks for all the excellent work so far!
Thank you very much! Excerisis PDF is not uploaded yet. Could you please do so?
Thank you Lydia, yes I will ASAP!
I haven't finished the video yet. I just want to test my understanding of how muscles work. If hyperlordosis is fixed by training the butt and stomach and stretching lower back muscles, the solution to this one would be to train chest and/or shoulders? will be checking in in 10 minutes.
Checking in: I was VEEEEEERY wrong. Oh well..
🤣
Hi, I never comment on social media platforms. But this time I had to. Thank you so much! I am so grateful for your work and so impressed by it.
Thank you Hussain I really appreciate it
This is amazing…thank you!
Thank you Yiannis for this comprehensive training guide.
🙏😁
Can you do a how to train your balance proven by science please
I will in the future but to be honest I'm focused on making the rest videos on fixing hyperkyphosis, rounded shoulders and anterior pelvic tilt.
Μπράβο Γιάννη! Ο βιοαισθητηρας ήταν όλα τα ευρώ! Με αυτούς ασχολούμαι στο MSc.
👏👏👏
Amazing video! I have a request though. Can you show us how to build our gluteal muscles without building to much on the thighs? Whenever I try to work on my gluteal muscles my thighs grow instead and I see no results.
which swimming technique would you recommend as an additional exercise: breaststroke or crawl? THANKS!!!
waaaw dude you actually know what your talking about thak god
I don't think anyone lives like your thumnail.
I really appreciate these videos.
Thank you Victor!
Hey! I just discovered your videos and theyr fricking amazing! Science rules dude! Where can I find the PDF? Also, I would suggest to make the exercise example parts of video a bit longer!
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Brother you never uploaded the pdf I appreciate the concise scientific explanations but you should include the excercises in a organized matter
Very scientific and understandable and practical. Your video was exactly what I needed...thanks.
Thank you Adam! I’m glad that you find them helpful!
Hi thanks for a great video! Just wondering if posture correctors/upright make your neck postural muscles weaker since you have to rely on it? Or is that a myth?
Thanks in advance 👍
Its caused by weight, not gravity. Gravity is not a force.
Thank you so much!!! Finally a video that explains everything in details
thanks so much, i can go back to life, now.. these take about three to four longer sessions... like three to four days later, this helped removed a knot from the lumbar area/intestinal..which threw off my whole spine.
I love your videos darling
Great information. Would love to have a PDF or a page with the exercises, just as you have for other 2 videos on shoulders and hyperkyphosis.
This channel is so freaking underrated it actually physically hurts.
I might need a video on how to scientifically treat that
at the very end of the vid I suddenly realized - OH I need to raise up my lap top. hahahaha
Ladies, try the Forme bra, expensive but instantly corrects your posture. Make sure to actually measure your chest before buying. I was pleasently surprised it worked for me.
I practiced MMA when I was a teenager. One day, an opponent put me in a nelson lock.
I struggled to get out of it, but force was exerted on the back of my neck for 6-10 minutes and me applying counterforce (through my neck) so I could get released. I felt the pain for next 2 days.
Now I think that, it's the cause, that I have a forward neck.
What's your opinion about it?
This video was a great enlightenment for my. I had neck pain since years and they told my I should work on my posture, so I startet to work on my NECK but nothing gets better. By 2:00 you said that if I had a hyperkyphosis I had to fix this first. So I checked my posture and I would say I have no hunchback, a lightly lowered head and definitly round shoulders. So I have to focus on my shoulders and not my neck isnt it?
Hi, where can I find more information on the myofascial release of the chest muscles and also about the walls angles exercises, you described me!!! I am suffering from the exact things and for the same exact reason, depression, lack of motivation, unemployed and sedentary. You name it! Thanks a lot !
Very good advice! Looking forward to your hyperkyphosis video. I have this and suffer from back/neck/cervical pain for many years.
Great video. I found it’s helpful to stretch my lower abs.
Very well explained! Glad i found this video! I have this condition too and i feel my upper traps soo tight. Any idea why is that?
OMG this comes in sooo handy! My mom was just diagnosed with spondylosis and the doctor told her the reason is that she always puts her head FORWARD... so she need to constantly remind herself to put her head back in place. I am sooo sending the link to my mom now!!!
I'm having cervical radiculopathy can you please make a video on how to fix it
Great content, thank you 🎉
Can you please make a video about Lumbar Lordosis? (low back arch)
Good video! 👍🏼
Well explained! 👌🏼
(From India) ☺️
Γιάννη σε ευχαριστώ για τις λύσεις και πραγματικά συγχαρητηρία για το βίντεο υπερπαραγωγή σου. Πολλές ώρες θα σου πήρε να το ετοιμάσεις, αλλά είναι ένα έργο που θα είναι διαχρονικό και με μεγάλη ανθεκτικότητα!!!
Can you make a video on APT....please burst the myth of Hamstrings....can we stretch our hamstrings or not if we have APT
You definitely can stretch your hamstrings if you have APT, and yes I will definitely do a video on this topic!
@@YiannisChristoulas thankyou sir...I am waiting
@Yiannis Christoulas: May be you forget to turn on the CC of this video. Would you turn on the CC of this video? Please, and thanks you. ( English is my second language)
posture is determined by the innervation of the musculature. nerve interference to a muscle produces two main effects, elongation and weakness. this is the cause of postural distortion. in the case of so-called forward neck distortion, the scalene anterior neck muscles are neurogenically weak causing the loss and possible reversal of the cervical lordotic curvature. neurogenic muscle weakness cannot be remedied by exercise, only by restoring full innervation by correcting the source of the nerve interference cause.
I tried fix my posture. My neck like this when i high school. Now in university get better, but still not normal 100% i want to fix till 100% please show me the practice not only theory.
I think (in an empiric way) that streight exercises have sense, because, if you only try to be streight, and you are not use to (like my case, I have to say I dont have a good shape and I am not very use to workout), your muscle or your back and neck start to hurt. I am seing you and you are in a good shape, I dont think that you have problems with your muscles.

Awesome video! Have seen a lot of FHP fix videos here on TH-cam but I think I trust you the most. It makes totally sense what you say!
I do have a little bit of FHP, kyphosis and rounded shoulders. How should I fix that? I don't know where to start 😕
Thank you Chris! You should probably start from hyperkyphosis! I’m making a video on this one and will publish it soon enough
@@YiannisChristoulas Thank you for your answer! I'm really looking forward to that video. My shoulder has been show stopper for me the last many years (I'm only 27), I think it's maybe some kind of impingement problems maybe due the lack of shoulder mobility caused by my poor posture (my own theory). The problem occurs pretty fast everytime I try to start a new exercise drill and I have noticed that it appears soon after some days doing exercises above my head. I don't do heavy lifting just rehabilitation exercises like angel wings up against the wall, push ups on my knees focusing on the part activating my serratus anterior and stuff like that.
Ps I see why I should take of the hyperkyphosis first I think. Tried to look me in the mirror while trying to stand with good posture (straighting my back) and it's like my rounded shoulders almost disappears and the FHP is also really much reduced.
Really really looking forward for your video! Have a great day!
