I’ve been having problems while searching for information on certain pages on this site. I believe that this problem occurs because several pages have the same title. For example, many of the previous ‘notes’ pages have the title ‘Notes’.

05/28/06   Announcement

I have decided that it was a mistake to remove the section Weak Hamstring Muscles. This section can now be found again on the Posture page.

     The reason why I decided to remove this section was because I read that many individuals have excessively tight hamstrings (the back of your thigh) and chest muscles as a result of sitting at a computer or desk.

     I believed that further strengthening of these tight muscles would cause even more muscle tension. But, on the contrary, many people have tight muscles because the muscles are weak, and are struggling to maintain a static posture.

 

“It is a fact that stronger, more limber muscles are less prone to these kinds of repetitive motion injuries.

·         You'll want to concentrate on strengthening the muscles of your upper back, rear shoulder (this includes the rotator cuff muscles), spinal extensors, obliques, gluteals, quadriceps and hamstrings.

·         Likewise, you'll need to concentrate on stretching the muscles of your chest, back, hamstrings, hip flexors and neck.

·         Many, many individuals have excessively tight hamstrings (the back of your thigh) and chest muscles as a result of sitting at a computer or desk.

·         The imbalances that result from weak, inflexible muscles can lead to many avoidable aches, pains and injuries. Exercise also helps control your body weight and reduce stress, two additional factors to consider.”
