3:30 - Raise your gaze to 15 ft ahead on the floor when walking. 4:23 - Work the muscles between the shoulder blades with a resistance band. 5:55 - Stretch pectorals. Fingers locked behind head. Stretch elbows backward. 7:10 - Use foam roller at shoulder blades on floor. Press lower back against floor. Hands behind head for support. Let upper body sink slowly toward floor while keeping lower back pressed against floor. Don't hold breath, keep breathing. Position the foam roller lower on the back and repeat.

When I was a young teenager my mum said that the neighbours were worried that I was unwell or unhappy. They had noticed I was walking with my head down when I usually walked with my head held high. Mum said to remember that the best way to live is to look at life with a smile and a forward looking face. Good advice which I remember each time I find myself walking with my head down.

Huge thank you for this- both the info and remedy.I am so fed up with patronising doctors who dismiss with “old age” as a reason and none have explained or offered any help.

Thanks Will. I’m busy recommending your videos to my pals. Keep up the good work.

My daughter pointed it out to me that I was hunching so I just made sure I walked upright and pushed my shoulders back. It wasn’t easy but over time it became habit. Keeping my weight down helped as my boobs felt they were pulling me hunched too. It works.

One exercise that straightens out my hunch is to stand back against the wall, raise the hands high against the wall, and let them slide slowly down against the wall. By the time that your hands reach your side, your back is straight.

Then you don't have a "hunched back" Doing the angel wings against the wall is a brilliant exercise, but it doesn't straighten your back immediately, That is USA crapola. With respect.

Thank you for being so clear and able to understand. I also appreciate your caution hints.

Great video, thank you! I just turned 60, and, although I do ballet, I still catch myself sometimes hunching when I’m not in dance class. I try to be mindful of it, but I believe these exercises will definitely help me. I’m going to follow your channel now-and I love your accent ☺️!

Brilliant!! Clearly explained, easy to do, and immediately effective; it's exactly what we oldies have been waiting for!! Thank you so much

Thank you for the first positive advice I have ever gotten. With a bad neck & tailbone, I hadn't realized I was walking hunched over til I went to my new chiropractor in the small town in New Mexico I had recently moved to. She said "you are walking bent over". No solution, nor treatment was given & I never went back. As a 75 yo woman, it was a shock. Having been very active before retirement, I am now fairly sedentary & sometimes feel I am settling into a lump in my chair which I define as just an existence if you really don't need to be there. I wrote down all your tips, have begun to watch your other videos, especially about balance which is a real & terrifying fear of mine. I am a new fan, a new subscriber...You are a blessing

Thank you so much! I have had pain in my thoracic back for years with no relief and now at 65 it's getting worse. After an hour of cooking I have to stop due to the pain in this area of my back. This is the first time I've seen a video showing exercises to help. I'm praying that these exercises will help. Thank you for addressing something different! 💓

Will, thank you for this. As a retired OT, I would often work with PT with our older patients. Now, as a geriatric I am having to "practice what I preached". It really helps to watch the videos while in my exercise room working out at home. I really would love to see you showing a real time full workout.

I am 77 and are fortunate to be healthy. I really enjoy your videos and and would love to,see the one again on better walking for older people who don't pick their feet up when they walk. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. Much appreciated . Joy

Great exercises and explanations of how to do them correctly. Thank you.

I noticed bad habits. I'd changed my footwear to safer flats from lockdown and developed a shuffling hunched old lady walk. And realised this year maybe a heel (and 2 stone weightloss) would lift my spirits and my posture, so started wearing them in the house to practise this December. Its worked. Your video is great for making us think about a bad habit and working in different ways to rectify it. Youre very considerate. I like this production a lot. Thank you x I'm 64 x

Thank you for these simple stretches. I have always tried to do stretching that will help certain body parts, but I had not thought of a couple of these, even though I do something similar. Also much appreciate that they are free!

I didn't find anything irritating about the video. It was very helpful, and I will be glad to add in these movements!

Great little video. If I might add for people new to the rollers - this move can become enjoyable to do and if you start to hold the stretch longer just remember to come out of the stretch very slowly. If you move quickly to get out of it you could pull or strain something because you are all stretched out and relaxed. Just move slowly into it and especially out of it.

Thank you for this, Will! Great idea to have physio aimed at those specifically over 55! Love it!

Thank you very much for your information and exercises, having your study done special for elderly people! God bless you.

In my 20s I was given exercises for these issues. Id been a reader and then desk worker. When laptops came out instead of just hunched shoulders I noticed I started getting an additional curve lower down. No way to ergonomically set up a laptop. Recently read the looking down position we also do on our phones causes face aging too. 😢

Great video. Thankfully I'm 65 and don't walk with a hunch. Get to a yoga or pilates class too. Gives good balance and posture and also confidence boosting.

Exactly what I need right now! My mother would always nage me to hold my shoulders up so I wouldn't be hunched over. Now, at 71, I see myself getting more & more hunched over. Can't wait to try these excercises! Just stumbled across your video. I'm going to subscribe & tell my friends about you, too.

Stumbling onto your site, Will, nice video, good exercises, such an important issue. I'm 78, fortunate that years of meditation/yoga awareness, and daily attention, are keeping me quite upright, in spite of computer hours. ADDITION: Taught senior exercise pre pandemic: one of the main causes of 'hunch' is SITTING, especially for hours, developing habits that weaken and stiffen us. I purposely sit 'elegantly' and walk that way as well, as a mindful practice, along with exercises like the ones you are presenting herein. --Sta Bene, everyone, thank you

I definitely will do these exercises daily! Excellent explantions and demonstrations of each exercise. Thank you!!!!

Great video, I loved the back stretch over the roller. Thanks 🙏🏽

Thank you for the information, and demonstrations regarding how to do the exercises. I'm 90 and I, and my daughter, have noticed that I've been doing what you described, so I have begun using these exercises, to get myself to a more upright position. God bless.

Will, Thank you. Your demonstrations are easy to follow & to understand. Another exercise I have learned to do to become more sure footed is to balance on one foot at a time for 30 seconds. I now do it first thing every day in my stocking feet before I put on my shoes. Now it is more like a game to see how long I can balance on one foot. Be Well.

Your videos are so good. Plain informative information and proper useful exercises without all of the music and leaping around. My husband is very ill after numerous operations. He got sent home from hospital and was told to get fit, helped by telephone calls from the hospital physio. After several weeks, thank God, I came across your KZread channel. Watching your channel made such an amazing improvement in his ability to walk without aids. Thank you.

I’m so thankful this video appeared on my homepage! I LIKED and subscribed! I’ve battled multiple sclerosis for nearly 20 years, fibromyalgia since 2016, and osteoarthritis since, around 2018. In addition, I deal with severe chronic pain, most of it, is in my back, hands and feet. I’m only 61 but I’ve walked like Quasimodo for longer than I can remember; mostly because of the terrific amount of pain I experience when I’m upright. I am incapable of standing more than a minute or two. Falling is a normal and, regrettably, frequent part of life. I’ve torn both rotator cuffs, while falling, because, I, understandably so, reached out to break my fall. I’m learning to fall better, by wrapping my arms around myself, like I’m hugging myself, and allowing my upper arm (NOT my shoulder!) to break my fall. And yet sometimes, when I trip and fall with a great deal of force behind me, it’s a crapshoot as to how I will land! Most of the arthritis is located in the small of my back and my hands. The vertebrae are horribly affected and most of the arthritic areas are void of cartilage and are bone-on-bone. It is SO PAINFUL! I regularly go to physical therapy and do home exercises, but because of my severe hunching, I almost feel as if it is all for not. What would you recommend for a person such as myself?

Thank you so much for making this very useful video Will. It is very helpful and informative! I very much appreciate it!❤👍

Before the piano tuner arrived, I moved the remaining boxes to the other side. If my place were a boat, it would have capsized! Having clear space (except for near the sewing machine!) was miraculous! I am for sure not a minimalist, but . . . I also discovered that I walk better in my house in socks -- knitted and then washed in hot water to shrink them! A lot of slipper styles would trip a person!

Hi Will Thank you for your helpful videos. The book is great, too. Your comment about walking hunched over to feel safe rings very true. I noticed in myself and others that sometimes the problem with walking huncked over is due to poor eyesight. If you wear glasses you can’t just lower your gaze to look in front of your feet, you actually have to bend down your neck. Also, I noticed a major improvement in posture in both my mom and mother-in-law after cataract surgery.

Thank you. I enjoyed watching this… believe you should have a link to the firm roller you showed in the last episode...

Super information. I’m well over 55, but very conscious of keeping physically fit. I walk a lot, athletically, not just strolling. I do strength exercises as well as ones for balance. I do often catch myself hunching over when I’m walking around my house. When I walk outdoors I maintain good posture. So now I have some new exercises that might help my indoor posture. A big problem for me is as an artist I sit doing drawings and paintings and have problems with my neck. I’ve had trouble for years sometimes neck pain leading to headaches. Simple stretching exercises don’t do much for me and I wish I could get more advice on how to maintain good sitting posture while being absorbed in painting.
