Doctor's Two-Minute Posture Fix: Simple Exercises for Better Back Health

Posture problems are common, especially with increased screen time and sedentary lifestyles. A recent video by Dr. Sooj, a board-certified family medicine physician, offers two simple exercises to improve posture. The first involves a doorway stretch to target tight chest muscles. "You just want to stand in a door frame, put everything at 90 degrees and gently turn your body away," Dr. Sooj explains. The second exercise strengthens the back and shoulders. "You bring your shoulder blades back, you bring your elbows back to 90 degrees, and then rotate your arms up, down, forward, relax," he demonstrates. These easy-to-follow exercises offer a convenient way to improve posture and overall well-being.
