Does this sound like a typical day for you…You sit in a car to drive to work 30 minutes or longer. You arrive at your office to sit in your desk chair for the next eight hours and then drive home sitting once again in your car for another 30 minutes or longer. You walk into your home to sit down at the dinner-table and after you’ve enjoyed the meal, you sit or lay down on the couch to watch television!
That is a recipe for disaster for our bodies. We are increasing our risk for obesity, back pain, leg cramps and tense muscles. Here are some easy tips and exercises you can do right at your desk.
-
Firstly, ensure the desk chair is at the proper height, reducing the strain on your back.
-
Check your posture at your desk. Your lower spine should be flat against the back of the chair. A pillow inserted can be a tremendous aid for you to maintain proper curvature.
-
First exercise tip is to cross your legs in the chair with your feet on the seat. Placing your hands on the armrest, hold your tummy in, and raise yourself in the air and hold for 10-20 seconds. Rest for 30 seconds and then repeat five times. This will work your core and arms.
-
For lower body strength, sit in your chair with one leg extended in front of you. Hold this position for two seconds and then raise your leg up as high as you can and hold it for another two seconds. Do this for both legs fifteen times.
-
Instead of using email to send a message to your co-worker, get up and walk to their desk and give them a personal visit. The change in position will be good for your body.
Instead of having another doughnut from the coffee room, encourage your co-workers to join you. That may also stop they funny looks you may receive from them! They will be glad they did when their bodies begin to feel better!
