Have you ever been concerned about your posture while playing games? I've noticed that my back is rounded. I found a product on Amazon that was perfect for me, so I bought it!
The product in question is Dunlop's "Gaming Muscle Posture Assist Innerwear". In this article, I'll summarize the features of the "Gaming Muscle Posture Assist Innerwear" and my impressions of wearing it. If you feel like your posture is getting worse while playing games, this is a must-read article!
It's easy to develop bad posture while playing games
I think many people, including myself, have poor posture while playing games. Even if you notice that your back is rounded and straighten it, it will go back to the way it was when you start concentrating on the game, or your back will get tired if you keep straightening it, so you will end up rounding it again.
I think there are many people who have poor posture whether they are sitting in a gaming chair or sitting cross-legged on a cushion. Furthermore, some people may have experienced body pain after playing games for hours in the same position.
The "Gaming Muscle Posture Assist Innerwear" was created for people who have felt that their posture has deteriorated while playing games.
Innerwear that improves your posture just by wearing it
"Gaming Muscle Posture Assist Innerwear" improves your posture, which tends to deteriorate when playing games. As the name suggests, simply wearing it improves your posture.
It forces the back muscles that are not used when the back is rounded to work. Specifically, it increases the activity of the erector spinae muscles by 281 TP3T.
There are four sizes available, from S to LL, and the price is about 9,000 yen.Amazon product pagePlease check the image on the website.
The cross belt on the back is effective
The reason why wearing the "Posture Assist Innerwear" improves your posture is because the cross belt on the back pulls on your shoulder blades. The compression also tightens your stomach a little. Pressure is applied from both the front and back of your body, improving your posture. The photo on the left shows the front, and the photo on the right shows the back.
It is said that better posture makes it easier to breathe, allowing players to stay calm and concentrate more on the game.
Sweat-absorbing, quick-drying material that feels smooth against the skin
The material used is sweat-absorbing and quick-drying, so it absorbs sweat easily and dries quickly. The fit is so good that I was worried it would get stuffy, but the sweat-absorbing and quick-drying material makes it less stuffy and less stressful to wear for long periods of time. If you're wearing it at home, this alone is fine in the summer, and in the winter, it's also good to wear a sweatshirt over this inner layer.
It's also smooth to the touch, which I personally like. When I'm wearing it, I sometimes find myself touching my stomach area.
My impressions after trying on the "Posture Assist Innerwear"
My impression after actually wearing the "Posture Assist Innerwear" is that it improves my posture compared to when I'm not wearing it. When I wear it, the cross belt pulls my back, and I feel like my back is stretched more naturally than usual. Even though I'm not aware of it, I sometimes feel like my back muscles are tired when I wear it, perhaps because my erector spinae muscles are tense.
Because the pressure is so strong, you have to use a bit of force when putting it on or taking it off, which can be a bit difficult. However, without that pressure there would be no point in wearing it, so you just have to put up with it.
Compared to regular short-sleeved shirts and undershirts, the fabric is thicker, so it would be too hot to wear in a room without air conditioning in the summer. In the winter, you can wear a sweatshirt or hoodie over it, so it's not a problem.
Precautions when using "Posture Assist Innerwear"
I thought that if just wearing it improves posture, it would be okay to wear it while sleeping, but the instructions for use said, "Do not use while sleeping." So, you can't wear it while sleeping.
Also, there are some things to keep in mind, such as not being able to use bleach when washing, so if you are concerned about this, we recommend that you check this before purchasing.
summary
This concludes our introduction to Dunlop's "Gaming Muscle Posture Assist Innerwear." This is a product that should be tried by anyone who finds themselves leaning forward while playing games. Although the price is a little high at around 9,000 yen for something that you just wear, why not try buying one to try it out first?
