Yeah Kayla! You did it…thank you for the video…very helpful! No more slouching…now I will hear your voice throughout the day. 🙂
Thank you, Kayla, for this video! It was very helpful, I’ll love to get more form you soon!
This is great Kayla. I have a teen that slouches a lot. I am going to show this to the kids tonight and maybe this will help him.
Thank you, Kayla, for the awesome vid♥
Enjoyed the video. Hope you’re healed very soon!!
Thanks for the video! I think I was definitely straining my traps….was trying to force shoulders down.
thanks for the reminder!! I think I’ve also been tiring my traps out..they’re always sore and I still slouch anyways. Will start practicing this right away!
Thanks Kayla. My daughter and her husband (and my grandson!) are coming tonight. I will show this to Karen when she comes
Great Kayla! Thanks for sharing! I hope to use this with some in my class–I know a few of them still aren’t getting the shoulders back correctly so this should really help!

Thanks Kayla! Great video!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing these tips!
Awesome video Kayla!!
AWESOME! I see that I have been not relaxing my shoulders! THANK YOU!
Hi, I am a hairstylist, been one for years, and I have noticed a trend in recent years….which is more and more clients are slouchers….I think it has to do with the use of computers and cell phones (texting/gaming,etc.) I constantly struggle with continually asking people to sit up straight in the chair. I am short,so when a person slouches, it is very challenging for me to reach the correct way, thus causing me to have to slouch…..We need to educate our kids not to slouch again….there is a whole new generation coming up that is going to have terrible neck/back troubles.
I am doing this along with you and when I lifted my ribs it began to ache in the middle of my back. What does this mean?
Hey! You are probably trying to squeeze the shoulder blades together a little too much. Aim to activate down the sides of the back—does that make sense?
Wow, that was amazing. I finally get it. Thanks.
This video was so inspiring. I’ve been trying to ribs up all day today and yesterday. My back gets tired after a while though. 😀
Kayla, I did a two week challenge of focusing on my posture and I wanted to share my results! I lost a total on 1.25 inches everywhere by focusing on my posture and doing a few simple floor exercises almost every day (ESLA, OIPHF, LB, CC). So excited!
Kayla, I just signed up for your program, and this video is very instructive. As I was following your instructions, I did feel some ache (not really pain) in the right where you showed the position of the lats. Is that feeling those muscles being activated?
Thank you Kayla for such a great vimeo!! I slouch way too much 😉 and will work on this!!
Kayla, I'm a new T-Tapper and after 6 weeks just now figuring out the "lift ribs" move and that my traps are not my lats. You gave such great visual demos. That helped because I'm not much of a science or anatomy person.
Hi Kayla, Im a newbie to t-tapp and I couldnt see the video past the first few seconds. I have just finished day 4 of the Instructional #1 Basic Workout Plus; I have had so much energy since I began that I over did it in doing alot of deep cleaning around the house…so this morning I woke up to a swollen knee! Common sense is telling me to rest it and see how i am tomorrow? Also, Is there a posting of the word meanings used in t-tapp: BWO, PBS, eod, etc. Thank you for your blog(-:
Kathy, good question!  Yes, you should rest it.  Be sure to head over the the T-Tapp forum at http://www.T-Tapp.com and you’ll find TONS of great info there!! Wishing you the BEST with your T-Tapp journey!!
Kayla
