Quick Stretches for Desk Workers

Sitting for long periods can lead to muscle stiffness and poor posture. Incorporate these quick stretches into your workday:

Neck Stretch:

Gently tilt your head towards one shoulder, hold for 15-20 seconds, repeat on the other side.

Shoulder Rolls:

Roll your shoulders forwards and backwards 10 times each to relieve tension.

Torso Twist:

Sit tall and gently twist your upper body to one side, using the chair for support. Hold for 15 seconds, repeat on the other side.

Wrist Stretch:

Extend one arm, palm facing up. Gently bend your wrist down with your other hand. Hold for 15 seconds. Repeat with palm facing down, and then switch arms.

Try to do these stretches every hour or two to keep your body feeling better.
