Is it possible that as you gain muscle in your back, it atcually begins to correct your posture so to speak? Generally I dont have the best posture, especially when sitting, but lately any slouching causes pain and pushes my spine into the chair, wall that I am sitting against. Anyone know of any legit info to help explain this?

    When you're lifting weight, you have to correct your posture to not injure yourself, right?

    So it's possible that you're being ever-mindful of posture because you're creating the habit by working out. And yes, it CAN help posture!

    I've always had a good posture b/c I went to Catholic school as a kid lol
