Do the StraightenUp exercises work?
An American study showed after just five weeks of daily StraightenUp exercises, 83% of participants reported a postural improvement. Approximately 80% reported that their backs were more comfortable and that they could sit and stand more upright, and 78% said they felt stronger in their core muscles (Figures from StraightenUp America).
The people who have tried it don’t need persuading that it works. Why don’t you just try it and see for yourself!
We look forward to hear from you!
