Spine Affecting Speed

You will see the difference between a 200 lb. man with proper and improper posture in the act of walking or running.

 

Proper Posture

Improper Posture

The proper S-shape spine is a dynamic (moving) machine.

 

The straight spine is a postural maintenance machine.

 

The amount of effort expended by the hamstring muscle in the planted leg at a 60° angle during movement:

With proper posture:

zero

With improper posture (trunk mass 4" forward)

400 lbs.

 

The amount of forces present in the same individuals as the hip joint:

Mechanical advantage demonstrated improper posture will have poor ability, will fatigue and will suffer injury and degeneration.
