10 minutes of mobility for desk workers

Five moves for your neck, hips and back that you can do every day. No equipment needed.

Sitting all day shortens the hip flexors, closes the chest and rounds the back. Ten minutes a day greatly reduces this.

Five moves

  • Cat–cow: 10 reps
  • Hip-opening lunge: 45 seconds each side
  • Doorway chest opener: 30 seconds
  • Neck side stretch: 30 seconds each side
  • World’s greatest stretch: 5 reps each side

When?

At lunch or after work. Consistency beats duration.
