I have found (and this is not to say it applies to everyone nor is it groundbreaking stuff), that due to sitting/inactivity etc we are weak in our anterior chain in a lengthened position eg and weak in our posterior chain in a fully constructed position.

An example of this is hip extension (standing up straight after sitting).

The focus when we have issues like this is to stretch things - an example is stretching the pec/delt tie in b/c we think our pecs are tight. No amount of stretching is really going to improve our posture etc unless we have the strength in the opposing muscles to pull us into good body positions.

Anyway....was that starting to sound rant like?? Apologies.
