What are some office fitness exercises?

Nowadays, many urban white-collar workers are under great pressure at work and are usually very busy. After work, they will feel tightness in their shoulders or neck muscles, and sometimes even soreness. This is actually a common phenomenon among modern urban white-collar workers, indicating that the body has entered a sub-healthy state and is in great need of physical exercise. However, due to work restrictions, exercise is often not carried out in a timely manner. At this time, you can simply do some simple fitness exercises in the office. These exercise methods are introduced below.

Chest lift exercise: Sit on a chair with your arms and legs naturally placed on both sides and your feet flat on the ground. Inhale and gently lift your chest muscles toward the ceiling, keeping your eyes level and your chin parallel to the ground. Hold this position for 10 seconds, then relax. Repeat the same action 5 to 10 times.

Shoulder blade retraction exercise: Maintain the above-mentioned chest lifting movement, but put your hands on your waist instead, and pull your arms back and close together as much as possible. You can feel the stretching force on your chest. Hold for 10 seconds, then relax and repeat this movement 5 to 10 times.

Chin-tuck exercise: Continue to keep the chest rising, with the chin parallel to the ground, and then retract the chin, head and neck inward. Note that this should not be done downward, but parallel to the ground. Hold this position for 10 seconds, relax, and repeat. Tip: Placing your finger on your upper lip can help move your head in the right direction.

Cervical flexion exercise: Still based on the chest lifting movement, the head is slightly tilted forward, as if nodding, until you feel a stretch at the junction of the lower part of the head and the neck. Hold for 10 seconds, relax, and repeat 5 to 10 times.

Through the above introduction, I believe everyone already knows the specific methods of office exercise. In fact, these exercises do not need to last particularly long. For example, after working for a period of time, you can take a minute or tens of seconds to do such exercises. If you persist every day, sub-health conditions will not easily occur, and it will also improve work efficiency.
