If you sit all day - or for a good portion of the day - and are starting to feel your shoulders get rounded forward try doing Scarecrows a couple of times throughout the day.
To do Scarecrows (aka Wall Slides) stand with your feet about 6" away from a wall. Lean back so your upper back is against the wall Put your hands in the 'goal post' position with a 90 degree bend at the elbow.
Reach up overhead by extending the arm and keep the EVERYTHING flush against the wall. Your upper back, shoulders and arms should be in contact with the wall at all times.
Do 15-20 of these a few times each day and you will start to notice a difference in your posture after just a few days.
