I've noticed my shoulders pronate forward, could this be from too many pushing lifts and not enough pulling? Could lifting cause this in any way, and if so would more pulling movements fix it? I also broke my left collar bone and separated the right one. This is getting frustrated as it feels unnatural to stand up straight...Can already see my self 20 years down the road with a damn hunch back. brb doing rows

I will say that I think the modern workplace (sitting at a computer, hunched over) is more to blame than the way you work out. What makes more sense, the position you assume in school/work for 8+ hours a day having an impact, or not having quite enough pulling movements?
Not saying you shouldn't pull more, most people probably should. Just saying that you can't fix hours and hours of sitting on your butt by doing 30 minutes of cardio a few times a week, and you can't fix hours of sitting like a neanderthal behind a monitor with a few extra pulls. It is very likely that a bigger, and more comprehensive, change is needed.GoRuck Challenge Journal: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=150446113
