THE INFLUENCE OF PHYSICAL EXERCISES ON THE FORMATION OF CORRECT POSTURE

Abstract

Introduction. Posture is the natural position of the human body while standing, sitting or moving. It is formed under the influence of genetic factors, habits and physical activity. Correct posture ensures an even load on muscles and joints, which helps prevent pain and injuries. Correct posture is established in children from an early age and continues to form during the growth and development of the body.

The aim of the study – to substantiate the use of physical exercises for the formation, maintenance, and correction of correct posture.

The main part. To maintain correct posture, it is important to strengthen the muscles of the back, abdominal press, pelvic part and hips. Performing physical exercises aimed at strengthening these muscles will significantly improve your posture. These exercises include swimming, plank, hyperextension, pull-ups, deadlifts, squats, and stretching to maintain flexibility. It is also important to monitor the technique of performing exercises, because incorrect execution of them can be harmful and lead to negative consequences. Hyperextension is an effective back strengthening exercise that can significantly improve posture. When performing this exercise, the main emphasis is placed on the extensor muscles of the spine, which play a key role in maintaining the vertical position of the body. The deadlift is a basic exercise in strength training that involves lifting a barbell or dumbbells or kettlebells from the floor to a standing position while holding them in front of you with outstretched arms. It engages a large number of muscles, including the muscles of the back, thighs, buttocks, arms and shoulders. This exercise helps to develop strength, improve coordination and stability of the body.

Conclusions. To maintain good posture, it is important to strengthen the muscles of the back, abdominal press, pelvic part and hips. Performing physical exercises aimed at strengthening these muscles will significantly improve posture. Such exercises include: swimming, plank, hyperextensions, pull-ups, deadlifts, squats and stretching muscles to maintain flexibility. Regular performance of these basic exercises and correct execution technique will lead to the formation, correction and maintenance of correct posture.
