Beat Office work Fatigue: Pilates Solutions For Sedentary Desk Workers
How sitting 8+ hours daily slowly damages your muscles, joints and energy levels
Millions of office employees spend most of their working week seated behind a desk. Long hours of continuous sitting gradually shorten hip flexor muscles, tighten the lower back, stiffen the shoulder neck area and drain your daily energy levels. Many desk workers finish their workday feeling physically exhausted even though they did not complete heavy physical labour. This tiredness comes from muscular tension, poor blood circulation and locked up joints caused by static sitting posture. Short pilates inspired movement breaks throughout your workday can fight these negative sedentary effects.
Quick desk friendly and after work pilates sequences to refresh your tired body
You can complete simple seated pilates stretches right at your desk without any special equipment. Once your workday ends, a longer 15-20 minute mat pilates session releases built up muscle tension and restores healthy blood flow to your hips, spine and shoulders. Adding these small movement habits to your weekday routine will noticeably reduce end of work fatigue and improve your overall comfort.
