Anatomical is the perfect alpha stance. How you carry yourself will make you feel the way you do. Standing unconfident for a lot of people makes you unconfident. Standing confident makes you feel confident. Your standing in that way because it is comfortable to your mood. So if you change your stance and your shoulders you should actually end up becoming confident. Your body language can change your mood if you adjust it.
Generally the standard alpha pose is to have a wide stance(territorial) with confident shoulders. You almost want to pull your scapula s together, it will push your chest out. Chin should always be up, DON'T tuck your head into your neck.
Do not slouch you should have good posture, it is an incredibly attractive natural feature. Sounds like a mom talking but it is true to walk with good posture. Good posture just makes you look like a somebody, and feel like somebody.
While you do this walk with your chin up, don't put your eyes down to the ground when your walking, how many times have you seen an alpha guys staring at the ground walking? NEVER. Hiding your eyes from them in an effort to hide yourself doesn't work. Make eye with people contact while you walk, you are not afraid of anyone. No one is better than you and you can convey that through your body language.
Some men, this is a very western orientated style, will grab their belt buckle with their thumb, letting their thumbs sit on the belt letting your fingers go down basically framing your junk. I occasionally stand like this, if I am uncomfortable or unconfident doing this helps me feel more confident. Sometimes I do just stand like that. Sticking your hands in your pockets with your thumbs out is similar but not nearly as pronounced.
Most of being alpha in body language is in the shoulders, stance, and head. The rest is purely the mindset, walk confidently, stand confidently, sit confidently. Don't worry about other people that is why we are unconfident we worry far to much about some strangers opinion of us that in all likelihood will never make any splash in our lives.
Your arms should be fluid, don't try to be fluid because you will look awkward and weird, just be fluid, be yourself. I am not a fan of crossing your arms, it is very alpha but it can come across as unfriendly and definitely not welcoming. I am usually pretty loose, I put my arms out friendly with open arms. My palms are normally facing out.
My advice to you is: Every time you go through a door way. Every time you are standing. When you are home. At work. Anywhere. Practice putting your shoulders straight out by pulling your scapulas together, keep your chest out. Walk everywhere with your chin up not snooty(don't look down your nose at people), just parallel with the ground. Act like your the man everywhere you go. When your home you don't slouch as much, I promise, but when you are out you are not comfortable and your body language probably speaks volumes. This is going to take a lot of conscious effort, it will not come naturally. When your just standing have your feet shoulder width apart. I am literal when I say practice. You can't just say I will do it, it isn't easy to change your body language, you have to consciously do it until it is habit.
