I lift weights (sometimes). I use a rowing machine (sometimes). I flap my arms, pretending I can fly (very rarely, and usually after a few drinks). So my shoulder muscles are not completely neglected. But I also sit at a desk (a lot). I’m doing it now, in fact, and my posture is pretty good. One of the reasons for that, I am sure, is the fact I have been doing the blackburn exercise all week and am more aware of my upper back and shoulder position than usual. I am not hunched over, protecting my keyboard as if it were my last bone. The blackburn is the little exercise that could. And did.
