Posture

Does anyone else pay more attention to their "every day" posture since beginning to lift weights?

I just recently started lifting on the free weight side of the gym. I am very focused on trying to keep the correct form and my posture correct, and now during the day at work, etc. I find myself straightening up and standing taller. I never realized how much I slump my shoulders before!

    Proper posture can make you look 10 lb lighter, too!
