Round Shoulders!

[TURBOBERT]

I am afflicted with these! Stems I think from being tall when young and big boobed! Has anyone tried the shoulder 'brace' type things you can buy - I wondered if the 'reminder' would mean my instructor did not have to nag me all the time

Snap - hope someones answers because I keep toying with the idea of getting one too.

I'm round shouldered too particularly when I'm schooling - only way it has started improving has been to concentrate on walking round with good posture and to raise my computer screen so that I look straight forwards rather than hunch. I'm optimistic this is starting to rub off on my riding position.

I got the sportabac shoulder brace because I have a lot of trouble with my shoulders.
I found it very restrictive to ride in, and it caused me pain, probably due to my injury being compressed, but I only ended up using it a couple of times.

I do it too!!! I wish I could stop

My instructor gets me to imagine a big smily face on my chest (yes I know it sounds very kiddy but it works), it sort of makes you bring your shoulders back and open your chest, then to ride with reins in one hand and stretch your other hand to the sky to make me sit up tall.
