Trying to get the clip, but talking Back to School, especially for the sports-minded on SportsRadio 92.9 The Game with Sam and Greg on a Sunday morning.
Here's what we discussed:
1. SmartSeat
www.physicalmindinstitute.com/smartseat
Retrain Your Sitting Muscles
“Sitting is the New Smoking” but maybe HOW we sit, with crossed legs and the pelvis tucked, is why 80% of us will experience back and hip pain. PhysicalMind Institute has a solution, SmartSeat™ is designed to retrain your body so that you can undue the damage from poor seated posture.
SIT Smarter to Correct Your Posture!
The common crossed-leg seated position has been implicated in back, hip and knee pain because sitting this way compresses the spine and lumbar discs, inhibits abdominal muscle support, and unbalances the pelvis and may restrict circulation (spider vein alert)!
SmartSeat™ is a tool that also:
· Improves Standing Posture
· Lifts & Lightens the Upper Body
· Energizes the Breathing
· Activates the Core Abdominals
Just 30 minutes of daily use will retrain your body so that you can sit comfortably with legs uncrossed. SmartSeat™ weighs just three ounces but supports the weight of the torso, its design lifts only the SITTING bones, not the seat. SmartSeat™ is made of a suede-like foam and comes in a protective bag with two portable wedges so that you can take sitting well with you anywhere.
SmartSeat™ is 19” long with a 3” pommel at the front and flares to 7” at the back of the model. Wedges are 7”x 7”.
