Anyone else noticed an improvement in their sitting posture since taking up erging? My wife has excellent posture & we were in the local hospital waiting area for her to receive her COVID vaccine.
I was startled to discover I was actually sitting at her eye level!! Normally I'm slouched over, butt to the front edge of the chair, sitting on my back pockets, legs crossed & stretched out with arms folded across my chest. I was actually sitting like my mother always told me I should.....smack dab on my ischial tuberosities with feet flat on the floor!!
This "correct" posture has also carried over to watching TV, working at the computer & sitting at the dining room table.
Too bad my mother passed away several years ago. She would be really pleased and say, "how come it took you so long?"

Re: Improvement in seating posture?
yes, definitely! It took me a while to develop the core strength and the habit to keep checking my posture, but it's made a huge difference in my every day sitting posture as well as my rowing.
