  Posture

  Posted by hmhall85 on November 28, 2025 at 9:25 am

  I never realized how important posture is. I have been attempting to play guitar a LONG TIME. The posture recommendations in the 30 Days to Play series provided some immediate improvements in comfort and capability. I added a strap to help me maintain a correct posture and instrument position ( I had multiple hand and wrist surgeries four years ago and still struggle to recover strength in my hands and wrists). Major win!

  Absolutely correct, posture is very important. You many want to have a look at the stretching exercises in the skill courses, one of many great series in there.

  I always play with a strap for this very reason. Well, sometimes I like to try and stand while playing too. Crazy how much more difficult it is.
