iPosture Review
Everyone slouches from time to time, but it always seems even harder when on a computer. Or for me, i sit on the couch most of the time and write from my laptop, which in my opinion is a huge no no for slouching, it just makes it too easy!
I was really happy when I was informed I was going to be able to review the iPosture. So what is it you ask? It is a about a quarter in diameter, but slightly thicker and it vibrates when you lose your proper posture. It comes along with two spare 3-volt Lithium batteries, a Quickstart Guide, two sheets of double-sided adhesive stickers, a red velveteen carrying case, a tool to help with getting out batteries and of course, a copy of Young, Sexy and Healthy. The device itself is about a 1-inch diameter of white plastic with a pressure sensitive front, it comes loaded with a battery, and is outfitted with a wire clip for fastening.
The iPosture can be worn three ways: clipped onto the clothing or a necklace via the aforementioned wire clip, or adhered directly to the body using the included stickers. I personally like the adhesive method most it works really well. It really doesn’t work well with most of my necklaces, I don’t have a simple chain, but the bra strap method also worked really well. Now if you are only wearing a tshirt you would need to find another way to wear, you have to have it close to your body, not on loose clothing. All three methods actually seem to allow the device to function about the same.
First you stand or sit on the proper position then press the device, it should vibrate once, letting you know it is ready. It does warn not to be too proper the first couple times around! Then whenever you have been out of proper alignment (the one you set!) for 60 seconds it will vibrate to remind you to sit up!
This device is great! Yes at times it can be pretty annoying to be told to sit up straight but this is for a good cause, your health! back and body! Not to mention it will strengthen belly muscle it you have been a big ol slouch like me. No it will not give you six pack abs but it will help!
A few facts about Posture: Waist size is reduced by about 2 inches on Women who improve their posture! WOW! And Men with good posture are seen as more successful!
Women with good posture are less likely to end up with Osteoporosis Fractures. (now if that isn’t a reason to straighten up I don’t know what is!)
People with good posture are generally happier and more confident.
Overall I really am loving it. It would be great for piano teachers to use on students. ha! It does what it is supposed to and is VERY easy to use, plus with extra batteries it is really nice deal.
They are running a special right now, and you can get an iPosture for $64.95. Overall a good investment if you have the cash to spare right now, or if you have really bad posture and back pain.
