http://www.kmaland.com/news/isu-researcher-finds-benefits-of-power-posing-have-no-basis/article_134e9ba0-ec26-11e9-81bb-4fc6a978a993.html(Ames) -- An Iowa State University researcher says the idea that striking a power pose in the mirror can boost your confidence, abilities and testosterone levels is complete bunk.
The most common example is standing like Wonder Woman, your hands on your hips, upright, Crede says.
Some people say before you go for a job interview or give that big presentation at work, go to the bathroom and power pose for a couple of minutes, Crede says. Theres nothing wrong with that and I dont think its going to hurt you, but dont think that you can substitute good preparation for an interview or a presentation with simply power posing for a minute or two.
