Working from home full time along with the stay at home orders mean I am sitting more than ever. And it’s not as interrupted as it once would have been. Gone is my cycle commute. Gone are the interruptions of walking to a printer, standing up to talk to a co-worker, or sneaking out to get a coffee.
As a result I’ve found that once a day exercise isn’t enough. I need micro-movements to interrupt the hours I’m spending in the same chair, staring at the same screen.
So I decided to make list of my top 5 yoga stretches or movements. Things I could do without changing my clothes, that will get me to stand up and move. I’ve also tried to hit the usual tight problem areas – shoulders, wrists, neck, hips, glutes, thighs and back.
My top 5 list of standing movements:
