Guide
You do not need a gym to look after a desk-bound body. These five short exercises fit into a break of two to five minutes.
Neck turns
Sit tall. Turn your head slowly to the right, hold for five breaths, then to the left. Do not force it.
Shoulder rolls
Roll your shoulders backward ten times in slow circles, then forward ten times.
Wrist circles
Extend your arms and circle your wrists ten times each way. Gently open and close your fists.
Seated twist
Sit tall, place your right hand on your left knee and turn gently to the left. Hold for five breaths, then switch sides.
Slow breathing
Breathe in for four, hold for four, out for four, hold for four. Repeat four times.
A note on safety
Stop if anything hurts. If you have pain or an injury, ask a doctor or physiotherapist first.
