Office ladies must know! There is a reason why you can't get rid of your butterfly sleeves. Carrying your bag like this won't work.

For office workers, a bag that is both beautiful and practical should not only be able to effectively store laptops and various office files; it is also an important accessory to show personal fashion taste and professionalism. But, you know? Carrying the wrong bag not only affects a person's appearance, but in the long run, it may also cause discomfort such as shoulder and neck pain, and even cause annoying beating sleeves! Therefore, if you want to avoid butterfly sleeves, it is very important to learn how to carry and hold a bag correctly!

There is a science to carrying a bag and holding it in the right position. If you make a mistake, you may get butterfly sleeves and upper body pain.

Why is the posture of carrying or holding a bag related to the formation of butterfly sleeves? This is because many women, in order to maintain their elegance, often hold their bags by bending their forearms or carrying them in their hands. It is worth noting that when the contents of the bag are heavy and an improper posture is maintained for a long time, it is not only easy to cause muscle strain, stiffness, soreness and other discomforts, but also if the force is not applied properly, it will develop a habit of exerting force with the biceps, which will cause relaxation of the muscles at the back of the arm, causing annoying wiggling sleeves and making the arms become increasingly thick.

Therefore, if you want to get rid of the unsightly butterfly sleeves and regain your slender and graceful limbs, you might as well start by learning how to carry and hold a bag correctly!

NG posture: Postures with protruding chin, retracted shoulders and bent back not only look unsightly. Holding a bag for a long time with a hunched back and shoulders pulled inward will cause a burden on the shoulders and arms. This can lead to upper arm obesity and shoulder pain.

Suggested Posture: Keep your chin tucked in and stand with proper posture. Place the bag on your shoulder and gently grasp the shoulder strap with your hand. Pay attention to the position of your shoulders and wrists. Push your shoulders and arms back and down, and gently bend your wrists outwards.

【Arm bag】

NG posture: When the posture is bad, the bag will be supported by the shoulders and arms, which will often put the muscles in a tense state, thereby increasing the occurrence of muscle soreness and discomfort. Moreover, a bent posture with a crooked back will give people a noticeable sense of aging.

Recommended posture: Place the bag at your elbow, bend your elbow at 90 degrees, push your shoulders back and down, and gently point your wrists outwards. Push your upper arms back as far as possible while holding the bag.
