Get home office strong
Combat classic sitting-induced issues, such as back pain and stifiness, by getting up regularly and performing some of these exercises and stretches, says Anne-Marie Lategan
We‘ve all had to adapt over the last few months. Sitting on different chairs at home may not be as comfortable as your office chair and you might start to feel stiffness or pain in your back.
It’s recommended to get up and move around every 30 minutes. Set an alarm throughout your day and when it goes off, spend three to five minutes doing some of these exercises, to get strong against common sitting-induced issues.
Doing short bursts of movement throughout the day will help you improve your back-muscle strength and flexibility to keep your back mobile and pain free.
Warm up
Every 30 minutes, when your alarm goes off, walk on the spot with high knees for one minute or walk up and down stairs five times.
Sets and reps
Pick two to three exercises for every five minute block. Perform two sets of 20 repetitions of each exercise.
