Sitting for long hours at your work desk may lead to neck or lower back-related issues. These exercises make it easier for individuals to maintain good posture and prevent discomfort while sitting for extended periods.

Finger and Elbow Stretch 

Typing for extended periods can cause tension in the fingers and biceps, we can relieve some of this tension by stretching our forearms and elbow biceps muscles.

Neck Movements

To maintain appropriate neck mobility and prevent stiffness, move the neck from left to right.

Incline Push-Up

With the help of the table, we can try to touch the surface of the table from the chest by putting our arms on the table which will help strengthen the chest while easing your depressed posture.

Sit-Ups

We can perform chair sit-ups by simply sitting down, standing up, and then repeating this movement multiple times. It will support our lower body's strength.

Shrug Exercise

In this exercise, we raise our upper trap muscles by raising our shoulder, so that it works as resistance, providing strength to our trap muscle.
