NO NO NO NO DONT SIT UP STRAIGHT THATS ACTUALLY REALLY BAD FOR YOU
I MEAN ITS BETTER THAN HUNCHING FORWARD AND THROWING THE DISCS BETWEEN YOUR SPINE VERTEBRAE OUT OF WHACK BUT SITTING UP STRAIGHT CRUSHES THE LOWER DISCS OF YOUR BACK AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TO BE REALLY REALLY DAMAGING IN AS LITTLE AS TEN MINUTES.
YOU GOTTA TILT YOUR SEAT FORWARD SO YOUR KNEES ARE SLOPED TO ABOUT 4-6 INCHES BELOW YOUR HIPS (and then also keep your upper back straight because thats pretty important too)
And if you can’t tilt your seat forward, try reclining at about 130 degrees. This isn’t in the source article but i’ve heard it helps relive pressure on your back as a whole.
