Workout at your desk?

Posted by kathryn in Uncategorized

If you’ve been sat at your desk all morning, you’re probably starting to feel a bit stiff and lethargic? It’s lunch-time, and while I’m a big fan of going outside during your lunchbreak to move around and clear your head, I do realise not everyone does this.

The SMH has put together a list of exercises and stretches you can do at your desk. While they’re not the perfect solution, these simple moves should help to keep you supple, mobile and at least add a smidgeon of activity to your day.

The workout includes the “chair twist”, “cushion squeeze” and “chin tuck”, to both work a wide range of muscles and reduce tension. Take a look at the list and why not add some activity to your life today.
