Neck Pain, Neck Exercises and Neanderthals

Is this you? I have just read an article from the NY times that says that we now have genetic proof that man had sex with neanderthals. I didnt need a geneticist to tell me that. A simple look around you at the office, bus stop, factory, restaurant or city streets will give you enough indications. Have a look at the photo. See how his spine has a large rounded curve and the head is forward. Do you walk like this? Do you stand like this? Do you sit like this?

Just keep your focus on his upper body, and imagine him seated. Now imagine bending his elbows as if they were typing a computer keyboard. Look familiar!?

All day everyday you will see people as neanderthals when sending text messages, typing, reading, driving and even eating. This forward head posture not only makes you look like a neanderthal but it also is the main cause of you neck pain and upper back pain and if you have back pain from sitting-look no further.

And it is all completely avoidable! Check the major cause of neck pain:
