wtf is wrong with my posture (15k depressed)
The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.

Would say 18% bf, as for posture, your shoulders are also rounded,if u want to know how they should be then go stand in front of a door(heels should be touching the door, back should be as well), and pull your shoulder blades back so they are touching the door, bring your chest up as well to fix it, as for the scoliosis part man i have no idea,
Just try to concentrate on pulling your shoulder blades back and bringing ur chest up,and head back and stretched up(should help with straightening ur back but idk tbh,thats what i did)
Your hips also seem to be sticking out too much, try to bring them in if u can, idk a single thing rlly about hips tbh
Also hit ur exterior delts more to counteract the rounded forward shouldersLast edited by Lolnubiwin; 12-16-2014 at 10:51 PM.

I gotcha man
Looks like some a case of kyphosis and APT (anterior pelvic tilt)*. Hold on, I'm about to post some GOAT links that have everything related to how to fix em
Alright, for your lower back, this thread will describe everything you need to do: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=130876763
As for your shoulders, here are some videos showing some thoracic mobility exercises on how to fix them:
Also make sure to do some heavy barbell rowing. Bodyfat reduction won't really help, as the problem is more within your muscular imbalances that have affected your postural and stabilizing muscles. You're probably around 18-20% bodyfat in those pics. I'd probably slow bulk. In a few weeks, you'll see noticeable improvement if you put everything together^^Last edited by Jaywalking; 12-16-2014 at 11:00 PM.

OP I had the same problem as you and it was really depressing but what I did to fix my posture was as soon as I noticed my upper back was rounded I corrected it and would sit in the corrected position and stand in the corrected position and after a while it just became normal that I would stand straight up, as well as that I also started hitting my upper back more with some face pulls and close grip pull downs and I found strengthening my upper back also helped me to stand straight up and not rounded. Hope that helps that's personal experience.
In the pursuit of some sort of aesthetics.

Bro its shoulder posture. Comes from weaknes external muscles of the shoulder, weak trapezius and rhombodies and to strong chest front delts. Might cause some shoulder injuries soon. Strech pectoral muscles and do some heavly back lifts. Shoulder face pulls are very good for this exercise and very important to train rhombodis!!

That's clearly anterior pelvic tilt. Read all the articles and watch all the videos in the above link. It's an unfinished log about getting rid of what you have there. I actually managed to maintain the problem, but I didn't manage to finish the log. It still has loads of useful information only if you read all the articles and watch all of the videos all the way through.

Yep definitely APT. I can already tell you squat and deadlift without equally working the opposing muscle groups... usually the cause of APT in gym-goers. When you squat there is:
Knee extension = Quadriceps
Hip extension = Glutes, Erectors
Ankle extension (to a lesser degree) = Calves
The deadlift is not the “pull” of the lower body. It is nothing opposite of a squat. It still involves all of those above extensions. The true opposite of a squat would be pulling something down into the bottom of the squat. Since that kind of movement isn't really feasible, we must isolate:
Knee flexion = Hamstrings
Hip flexion = Abs, Hip flexors
Ankle flexion (to a lesser degree) = Shins
You need to start making the above movements a priority. Leg curls, Shin raises, Leg Raises, Decline situps with emphasis at the top position, etc....
You should also be stretching the extension muscles like mentioned. IMO, stretching seemed more like a temporary fix. I would always tighten back up a couple days later and have to keep re-stretching. Strengthening the opposing muscle groups was a more permanent solution.
Your upper back is also rounded. Your shoulder looks like it's mostly anterior deltoid. You remind me of when all I did was Squat / Bench / Row / Deadlift / OHP / Chinup. You need to work all the upper back muscles. Lats are not an upper back muscle. They are not included in muscles that you need to emphasize because they, just like the pecs and anterior deltoid, internally rotate the humeri (shoulders). You need to emphasize the rhomboids, middle/lower traps, posterior deltoid, etc. Exercises like:
Band pullaparts
Bent over rear raises
Horizontal cable row shrugs (this one is kind of like rowing only with your shoulders (no arm flexion))
Rows to your neck
Any movement you can actually FEEL those said muscles being worked / used / fatigued.
I'm sure you could also benefit from:
Scapular pushups
External rotations
Lastly, I think there's something wrong with your head...I don't think that one's fixable though..
