Staple a wooden plank to your back.
Deadlifting 🏋️♂️
Lookup Strength Side, MovementbyDavid, and SquatUniversity on YouTube and watch their posture videos
Sun salutations every morning

This channel is fun and informative.
But stretching and working on some muscles which carry you the whole day will be the solution. No weird bending tricks like the tiktok trends show you. The problem lies deeper than that.
Start rock climbing
Put your body into balance
Foundation Training, gohkale method, and spending time with belkybagaisnt floor/staniloty ball breathing into it. Give yourself a year or two, but make good progress!
Hang daily! Easy, feels so good and great for spine and posture!
my posture wasn't great and this was the thing that helped me most
Yoga or stretching every 2-3 hours
Imagine there is a string coming out the very top of your head. Hold your body as if someone is pulling up on that string
Any strongfirst program. Simple and Sinister. Really teaches you how to activate the posterior. Among other things. GL
reminds me of the Louis CK bit about getting old and trying to fix his ankle or something. a doctor tells him to stretch for an hour a day and louie asks how long he has to do that for until it gets better. doctor says oh you just do that now, forever
