For anyone trying to learn to sleep on their back, as a lifelong side sleeper, I've found sleeping with a modestly heavy pillow on my chest to hug or even just to provide a sorta "grounding" weight makes it way easier. I still don't always stay on my back 100% of the night, but I am able to fall asleep on my back and stay asleep for a larger proportion of the night. And it does generally help my back/hips. In case anyone finds this helpful.

I was doing this naturally and thought I was alone

I’ve been sleeping on my side my entire life, and I think that’s the root cause for my rounded shoulders now that I’m working out and try to better myself I’ve noticed that the rounded shoulders really mess up the overall look of my physique

Yep, I have the same issue. The hypochondriac in me is really starting to fear for my well-being. Imagine having huge quads but tiny shoulders due to not being able to train them because of "minor" long term injuries like this.

agreed, plus rideshare driving totally ruined mine too... people were starting to say "Wow you have big traps!" as more or less a compliment (and i do work out) but no.... the truth is my giant, painful stress knots and rounded posture. it sucks not having the nice back i used to... trying to stay patient and keep at it.

I just watched an entire 8-minute video to learn how to fix rounded shoulders only to learn that I should have watched a *different* video to learn how to fix rounded shoulders.

I would do stretches and exercises to fix my rounded shoulders but every time I woke up my neck and shoulders would be stiff and sore. I realized not only was I sleeping on my side but also twisted with one leg bent which is literally the worst position. I started sleeping more on my back and my shoulders are naturally pulling themselves back. I’m still working out the mid/lower traps, obliques, and rhomboids as well as chest opening stretches and the combo of this plus adjusted sleep positioning in just one week has helped TREMENDOUSLY! Hope someone finds this encouraging ❤

Thank you so much...I've had poor shoulder posture, rounded shoulders my whole life and have worked on it off and on through the years. Your videos are so helpful to me. Thank you.

I had an injury in my back years ago and my back rounded back shoulders are from that...I was getting back spasms when in pain for 30 years so it's hard now to straighten out my back...I am a side sleeping unfortunately...I definitely could use the help...I'm exercising...I wake up and move on my other side..cuz I can't stay in one position all night....thank you for your videos...

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!! I’ve been looking for a video like this forever!

This is good info. Thank you Upright Health. From another Fitness Health Lifestyle person 💪

You can definitely learn to lay in 1 position all night long. When I was living on the streets I would often be in a narrow doorway & staying where I was was important. I have no idea how long it took me, but I can stay flat on my back for the entire night, so long as what I'm sleeping on isn't too soft.

You must release the knots in the upper trap first then do the low trap exercise.

I really appreciate the acknowledgment that we can’t sleep in one position all night very comfortably. I’ve been guilting myself and thinking there’s something wrong with me that I can’t stick to one position and wake up in pain as a result

Hello, thank you so much for this. Please, hoe long does it take to see results.

this has been the most time consuming video that didnt tell me anything ever

4:30 I know you're talking generally but when I sleep on my back and on the floor, I don't move at all while sleeping. I've recorded myself on bed vs floor and the deference is crazy.

What is you opinion on posture correctors?

It's also that the traps pull the arm up....even laying on your back

I have to sleep on my back. I have rounded shoulders but wayy worse on my left side(painful side). I’ve had 2 pt’s tell me I have an elevated left rib also. My neck is also involved b/c of the contraction of the shoulders pulling on my cervical spine. I switch from sitting in a recliner to sleep, to the bed, to the couch. I do not move. I sleep like a corpse seriously. I never know when I get up how my neck will react from being pulled on. Sometimes, I get slight dizziness lasts only about 3 seconds then it’s ok. I can take the pain on the neck /shoulder, but not the unsteadiness of the neck. We have bought 2 new mattresses over the course of 2 years. I still cannot get comfortable on any pillow. I even have a wedge and a cervical pillow which is just as bad. I keep trying and am hoping once I fix this rounded shoulder, things will get better.

This video came up going to my daily exercises ...have you tried seeing if its your pelvis outta whack (you can get it from prolonged sitting in a bad postural position). Look up tilted pelvis videos as this effects posture, hips, gait, shoulders and full body alignment etc. I felt your comment as I sleep like a corpse too!! due to my pelvis with pillow under knee. Ive found that if your pelvis is straightened your shoulders the rest literally falls into place a bit easier/comfier. Sit on a flat, straightback chair rather than a comfy couch slouch position (,I know its hard) n do lots of lying down pelvic thrust n bridge exercises Theres an exercise too, to stand against a wall arms up palms against wall then tuck chin in and squat.. Stretches out your shoulders. All the best.

L W I have severe muscle & nerve pain in upper back Right Shoulder & Entire Arm & Hand that I will wake up screaming & crying. I’m a traumatic left arm at the elbow amputee & I’ve overworked my right arm for 14 years. I get real bad insomnia because of the pain but when I do finally get to sleep I had to sleep in the recliner because I couldn’t lay flat,or on my side since it put way to much pressure on my right side. I actually slept in the recliner for 3 years not good on a marriage lol plus the recliner started to hurt my lower back hips etc. I ended up buying a King or 2 XL Twin size Head & Foot Adjustable bed frame (easier if I have to readjust in the middle of the night so I wouldn’t disturb my hubby) Buying that has been the best decision!!! Now it’s more comfortable to sleep on my back I actually get more then a few hours of sleep & I only suffer from my insomnia once in awhile. Hopefully maybe it’ll help you

Got rounded shoulders and want to fix them but ..i get nightmares while sleeping on my back

I feel like my shoulder is not stabilized it seems not in place compare to my right ,it doesn't seem serious as I can do all work and but I got alot if issue I think it's affecting my gains and physique to build muscle

I usually hold my shoulders back throughout the day but it don't really feel like I'm holding them back. My trapezius is pretty beefy though so I'm not sure what the problem is. I have pretty nice delts and my back is pretty jacked my upper traps are literally eating up my neck. My chest is a lil poopy tho. Not where I want it to be at least. I wish I was able to sleep on my back, I have pretty bad acid reflux and I've woke up in the middle of the night choking on acid before and it was extremely hard to breathe and I thought I was going to die. This happened twice to me, so I don't like laying on my back anymore lol

You might try using an inclined wedge with the taller part under your head. Having your head raised should really reduce how much reflux you experience. That and not eating a large meal within a couple hours of eating.

i can't sleep on my back cause i think too much and generally i kinda half sleep through the night and wake up exhausted, i also cannot sleep on my stomach because my ribs are pressing on my lungs and i have deviated septum...

I sleep on my back now since I had major rotator cuff surgery. Used to sleep on my side.

I noticed that my shoulders still go into rounded position when I'm laying flat on my back.. I found that it helps if i sleep with something pushing my middle upperback so that my arms can fall back, but its hard to keep that setup through the night.

I had neckpain before to after getting up. I bought a flat, but good supporting pillow with slightly raised side edges and a square front with slight indent. That way your neck stays in a good position when laying on your back. A good, firm mattress helps a lot to. To soft is not good.

My pillow is from the brand Cinderella, orthoflex 2.0 extra soft type. The cost was around 80 euro, but after one nap for 20 minutes fixed my neckpain instantly. Your muscles can relax more, because the head (which ways around 8 kilo) is well supported.

I have a shoulder dislocation problem. It’s easily dislocated and certain angle I know you have videos on your channel But It’s not a pain problem . I don’t feel pain until my shoulder is dislocated from : throwing a ball or stretching . How can I strengthen my shoulder to prevent dislocation.

Hey I just happened to come across this comment in which I had the same problem in both shoulders, which I received surgery on my right shoulder for. I have a program which includes face pulls, external and internal rotation exercises, front lateral raises, done with resistance bands for high reps. Assuming we have the same problem which the shoulder pops out for just a few seconds then pops back in when the arm is all the way at the top of range of motion. Another tip is I do shoulder press but I keep my hands internally rotated and don’t go all the way until my arms are straight keeps shoulder in less vulnerable spot. Chin ups over pull ups too

with all the talking then points us to go watch your other videos..that's what i learned.
