Tend to hunch over while working at a desk all day? It’s easy to develop poor posture – where you slouch in your seat with your head forward. This type of posture can create tight muscles, with weakened back muscles.
Point Performance’s therapist Michal Tekle demonstrates a simple exercise that helps relieve the stress and straighten posture. Every few hours, stand up straight with your arms at your sides. Shrug your shoulders upwards and bring the shoulder blades back. Turn your palms up. Bring your shoulder blades back and hold for ten seconds. Repeat ten times. You can also do this exercise several times throughout the day.
