Whenever I need to stand up and have a numb foot, I vow to stop doing it, but haven't managed to correct the habit yet. Posture is something I've been thinking about lately though, as I sit at a desk for 9 hours at work, and then usually sit at my home computer for a couple of hours at night. I'm noticing some of the older people in my family developing a kind of hunchbacked look from poor posture, and it's something I'd prefer to avoid for myself.

Driving a car with automatic transmission led to one of my clients having a severe muscular imbalance in his hip flexors (he bent his left leg and kept the right leg straight to work the pedals). This imbalance led to his pelvis moving out of alignment, which led to an overly stretched hamstring and a hamstring tear while running out an infield grounder. It also contributed to his lower back pain. Ignore your posture at your own peril. If Lazy Man doesn't mind, I have some reference info on muscular balance on my blog - http://healthhabits.wordpress.com/2008/04/14/structural-balance/ It’s amazing how much posture / muscle balance can affect your overall physical health.
