Posture
I recently went to the chiropractor and got the old, your spine is out of alignment from heavy lifting speech. My head is forward, I'm hunched over and my pelvis is anteriorly rotated.
But if perfect alignment was the be-all and end-all of performance, how did Usain Bolt and Michael Phelps reach the top of elite sport?
Because “perfect posture” is context-dependent. The body isn’t fragile, and it’s not stupid. More often than not, it instinctively finds the most efficient position to complete the task. That might not look clean or symmetrical—but it works.
Sometimes that path isn’t pretty and far from biomechanical perfection. Yet these athletes perform at insane levels.
Chasing textbook posture at the expense of comfort, output, or how you actually train? Dumb move.
Stop treating posture like it's some holy grail. Function beats aesthetics, especially under load or in performance settings.
