Exercises at work space to keep yourself refreshed during the whole day

If you spend all day at work, one easy way out is to do quick workouts in the office. Try the following exercises.

First arch your back up toward the ceiling, like a cat. Increase the movement with a deep inhale. Then exhale, tighten your abdominal muscles, drop your chest toward the floor and lift your head slightly. Repeat 10 times.

Bend your knees bringing your backside closer to the floor. For best results, try bending your knees at a 90-degree angle; hold position, then stand back up. Repeat 10 times. It is called Freehand squats.

Chair push-ups: Lean forward and place both hands on the edge of the chair so the body is at an angle. Perform a push-up by bending elbows and lowering chest. Repeat 10 times.

Shoulder shrugs: Raise both shoulders at once up toward the ears, hold position for a few seconds, and lower down. Repeat 10 times.

Neck stretch exercises: Relax and lean your head forward. Slowly roll toward one side and hold for 10 seconds. Now the other. Repeat three times for each.

Muscle imbalances are common and can lead to poor posture. One studyTrusted Source found that a combination of strengthening and stretching specific muscle groups can reduce musculoskeletal pain and encourage proper alignment. That, in turn, may help improve your posture.
