How to use Posture
1. Place the Puck on your upper back
Attach the Puck over the upper-back muscle shown below, between your shoulder blade and spine. Make sure the Puck is oriented as shown.
2. Select Posture in the app
Open Posture and select your connected Muscle Puck. Choose how long you'd like to be in poor posture before receiving a vibration reminder.
For example:
- 1 minute - frequent feedback when posture really matters, such as during a presentation.
- 15 minutes - a good everyday reminder while working at a desk.
- 30 minutes - gentler, less frequent reminders.
Posture also comes with three preset daily goals for how much of your wear time to spend in good posture: Downtime (25%), Desk Focus (50%) and Showtime (90%), for when posture matters most. You can also create your own goal at any time.
3. Go about your day
That's it. Muscle Puck will monitor your posture in the background. A minute of good posture combines:
You don't need to consciously flex your back every minute. Normal movement and periodically using your back muscles can provide the engagement Muscle Puck is looking for.
4. Feel a vibration? Move and reset.
If you go for your selected reminder period without a good-posture minute, your Puck will vibrate. Use it as a cue to straighten up, move and re-engage your back muscles. Then continue with your day.
