Will RC/PE1>iM encourage my kyphosis?

When I perform the upright lat lean stretch, I feel like it's stretching the wrong muscles. It feels as if it's pulling my shoulder forward although I do still feel a stretch in the lat. My I get neck pain when I do this because my shoulders already try to round when I'm not stretching. What should I do?

this is a really good question and to be honest, i do pec stretch instead of RC/PE1>IM because i have somewhat kyphotic posture with head forward and this stretch seems to further facilitate this imbalance.

i'm curious, what more experienced members are going to tell you.

I feel better since you have a similar situation. We shall wait and see.
