Desk body reset: 5 moves for people who sit all day
Tight hips, stiff upper back, heavy neck? Five moves, ten minutes, no mat required.
Sitting is not the enemy — sitting without moving is. Do these five moves once a day, and twice on long days.
1. Standing hip flexor stretch
One foot forward, tuck the tail bone, reach the arm up. Five breaths per side.
2. Thoracic twists on a chair
Hands behind the head, rotate slowly. Ten each way.
3. Doorway chest opener
Forearms on the frame, step through gently. Thirty seconds.
4. Chin tucks
Pull the head straight back, as if making a double chin. Ten slow reps.
5. Deep squat hold
Hold a table if needed. Breathe for one minute.
