Sitting Tight

Tip of the Day:
A very common problem for people with desk jobs or spend a lot of time sitting/driving is tight muscles resulting in a loss of flexibility over time. This is particularly true for the hamstrings, hip flexors, upper trapezius and pectoral (chest) muscles. To prevent this from happening to you, get up and move around at least once every hour and stretch daily.

Try these stretches for 4 sets of 30 second holds.

1) Seated Hamstring Stretch














2) Seated Piriformis Stretch














3) Hip Flexor Stretch














4) Upper Trapezius Stretch













5) Pectoral Stretch
