I have the same problem. You need to go someone qualified in sports massage, they helped me alot, although I havent tried all the tips yet.Quote:

My glutes dont fire when I extend my hips, my hamstrings do first, pulling my pelvis back. Which makes it look like my shoulders are more arched than they actually are.
I have to stretch my traps and chest often (especially when working out). I do stretched inbetween sets now too and have been extreme stretching a few body parts.
Go see someone thats qualified and they will feel around your back, glutes, hamstrongs, neck etc...I've also been told to do certain stretches and holds.
Unless you have some sort of disablilty or abormal spine (at any part; Lumbar, Cervical etc...) I'm 100% sure it can be put right.
yeah i dont think ive got an abnormal spine,like you said it should be able to be corrected,i might ask the girls at the gym next tym i go.
