Can we talk about that $80 'viral' posture corrector I bought last year? Total waste or life saver?

My physical therapist told me most of those gadgets just treat the symptom. Real posture change takes consistent muscle work.

Guess my posture will stay bad then, because consistent sounds like a lot of work.

You know what's funny about that? I bought one of those posture corrector straps last year after seeing an ad. Wore it twice and it just dug into my shoulders while I typed. Gavin_kim is right, it feels like a lot of work. My thing is I'll do the exercises for like three days, forget for a week, and then my back is tight again. Maybe the real gadget is just setting a phone reminder to stretch.
