SIT UP STRAIGHT
Future-Proof Your Body Against Chronic Pain with 12 Simple Movements
From an innovative physical therapist and social media star who coaches dozens of celebrity clients, an easy-to-perform set of daily stretching and exercise routines that future-proof your body and promise relief from the chronic pain resulting from sitting, slouching, and other harmful lifestyle habits.
What if we could easily acquire long-lasting protection for our bodies and escape the chronic pain caused by our sit-all-the-time, slouch-too-much lifestyles?
Vinh Pham is a world class physical therapist - a member of a new breed that dissects how people really move. He has worked with a broad range of clients, from Olympians to NBA stars to MMA fighters to Golden Globe and Grammy Award-winning artists. Early in his career, he discovered a disappointing truth: most of his patients came to him already in pain. They had poor, deeply ingrained lifestyle habits that misaligned their joints and tightened their muscles.
And the recent epidemic of non-stop sitting, which represents an all-day assault on the body, has only made things worse. If you're sitting for more than 30 minutes at a time without getting up, you may be heading toward a world of hurt.
Vinh's answer to the host of muscle maladies that ails us has been a revolutionary concept: why not future proof? Instead of reacting to chronic pain after it flares up, what if we focused on a "movement discipline" that not only prevents injuries but leads to longer lives, healthier bodies, and a clearer mind?
The process revealed here starts with installing a daily posture hygiene regimen. Performed correctly, Vinh's "Big Twelve" exercises, which can be completed in 20 minutes, will lock in protection for the rest of the day. But Vinh goes further. He provides stretching and exercise prescriptions for many of the specific ailments that bedevil us - from hamstring pulls to sciatica to rotator cuff problems - and, best of all, he offers a series of customized self-adjusting routines that are based on age, gender, and the kind of work we perform.
A compact tool box for tweaking the way we move, or refuse to move, Sit Up Straight shows that the solution to becoming pain-free is easier than we think.
Vinh Pham is a licensed physical therapist with over a decade's experience working with industry-leading health and wellness brands and treating top athletes, celebrities, and entrepreneurs. He is the founder of Myodetox, a group of design-forward manual therapy clinics that are reimagining the traditional therapy and rehab experience. Using his unique system of manual therapy, Vinh posts daily educational videos that help millions of people learn how to take care of their bodies. Vinh is a graduate of McGill University in Montreal, Canada.
