How to train sloping shoulders into flat shoulders

I don't know if you have noticed the shoulder shape of others and your own in life. In fact, most people have sloping shoulders. Sloping shoulders have a great impact on a person's temperament. It makes a person look worse in clothes and makes a person's shoulders look more majestic. So for people who have sloping shoulders, how can they train them to become flat shoulders?

1. Causes of shoulder slip

Sloping shoulders refer to a large angle between the shoulders and neck. The main reason is that the various muscle groups attached to the clavicle and scapula of the shoulder are underdeveloped and weak, causing the distal end of the clavicle and scapula to sag. Some people are born with this condition, while some others just ignore it for a long time, which leads to "muscle weakness" in the muscles around the shoulders, so the angle of the "sloping shoulders" and neck becomes larger and larger.

2. Disadvantages of sloping shoulders

Sloping shoulders do not have any serious adverse effects on human health, but the most obvious disadvantage of sloping shoulders is that they will affect a person's temperament. People with sloping shoulders will look old and listless. Acquired sloping shoulders can be corrected by increasing exercise and using appropriate methods.

Lateral raise: Stand with your feet apart, let your arms hang down, make fists with your fists facing forward, or hold a heavy object, then raise your arms to the side, keep your arms level with your shoulders for 3 to 4 seconds, then return to the original position. Do 3 sets of 12 to 15 times per set.

When crawling, the arms are straight, the legs do not collapse, and the hips cannot swing left and right. Stop when you can't crawl anymore. Practice 3 sets.
