Sit up straight! How to improve posture isnt just an annoying thing our parents and teachers taught us its good for our health. The term posture refers to the position in which we hold our bodies. We rely on our postural muscles to maintain balance, prevent the forces of gravity from pushing us forward and move in ways that place the least strain on supporting muscles and ligaments. 1 Many of us spend our entire workday in a relatively static position, so our bodies must be positioned correctly.
