Forget something?

As a college student, slouching could almost be considered one of my past times. Whether hunching over a keyboard or falling asleep in class, it unfortunately is rare that I am sitting straight up.

What comes along with this kind of behavior? Back pain.

When I go to the gym, however, my mind is far from my back. My goal is to offset my other bad habits at school; I mostly focus on cardio, abs and legs.

I could kill a few bad-habit-birds with one stone if I utilized my exercise time more wisely.

An article in Natural Health Magazine offers some simple exercises to help out our aching backs that are aimed at working those muscles we often forget when we're at the gym: the upper back and shoulder rotators.

The article promises you'll see a "notable difference" in your posture and performance, which sounds like it's worth a try.
