Tim Pawlenty Is Trying To Revive His Campaign Using Minnesota’s Budget Headaches. Does He Get Headaches As Well?

Does Tim Pawlenty's posture give him headaches?

Tim Pawlenty has chimed in on Minnesota’s budget woes, hoping to get some of the spotlight and ignite his presidential 2012 run.  If you did not know this, he was the governor of Minnesota for two terms and was involved with similar budget standoffs and was not afraid to shut down the state’s government.  This is a huge headache for the people in the state’s government.

Upon looking at Mr. Pawlenty’s other posture (body style, not political), I noticed a number of traits that can surely cause headaches, neck pain, back pain, knee pain and give him a poor standing posture. Notice on the left photo in the collage his right arch falls in, and both sides flare out, which will make his shoulders roll forward, something seen in all photos.

He is likely quite inflexible based on his body style (people with feet that flare out have flexibility issues due to inefficient body mechanics), and also probably suffers from left hip pain.  This is because his structure will cause his right hip to tighten up and his left side will strain, causing pain.  He will also likely have a heavy heel strike, because this type of asymmetry will torque the pelvis and his legs will be tight.  I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets left-sided knee pain because with he understrides on the right, he will overstride on the opposite side which will result in tightening of the left quadraceps affecting the kneecap and the left hip flexors. Ultimately, he may even have disc problems from this type of posture. Shoulder blade pain and neck tension with headaches is certainly within the realm of possibilitys as well.

I bet his mother was always on him for slouching, however, this type of body style will actually cause you to slouch naturally, as well see in all his photos.

Eventually, I would love to speak with Mr. Pawlenty, if he is so inclined and find out if my analysis is correct. This is of course, following the many clues in the public domain photos I have been able to find.

Good luck on your presidential aspirations for 2012.
