Daily stretching routine in order to imrpove your posture:
1) Cat-cow
2) Child pose
3) Some form of thoracic spine extension
4) Dead hangs
5) Shoulder rolls
6) Seated elbow grasp
7) Neck tucks
8) Trapezius stretch
9) Levator scapulae stretch
10) Shoulder blade squeeze (very underrated and not for a good reason)
These are the basics since most people have issues mostly with their upper back.
If you want, you can also add things such as pigeon pose on a bench, single leg glute bridges and so on.
Unless you have someissue i can not be aware of, stretching your quads, hamstrings, adductors, calves, abductors, foam rolling and training your core will also be crucial.
A few years ago this routine would seem like too much to be honest.
But nowadays since i've implemented it for so long and have seen the benefits, i can say that the 10-15 minutes you will spend doing these exercises, have a huge ROI.
Also, start with only a couple of sets on each and if you don't eant your posture to suffer, remember for every 4 sets of a pushing movement, to add 5 sets of a pulling movement.
Fin.
