How to Fix Bad Posture At Work

I think I need a little break

The best thing you can do to alleviate the muscular woes of working at a desk all day is to (shocker!) move more.

To do that, start a “change of position” schedule, according to Kastan. For every 45 minutes of work you do sitting down, get up and move in some form. That can be a quick walk around the block, doing a few quick posture correcting exercises (see below for a list of our favorites), or merely standing by your desk to read emails if you can’t afford the break.

“It’s difficult to avoid sitting for prolonged periods when so much of our work has evolved to being forward facing at the computer, but taking a few minutes for a posture break can help combat some of the long term effects,” Kastan says.

Incorporating regular static stretches into your everyday life will help stretch and lengthen muscles that can become tight as a result of excessive sitting and computer or phone use.

Consider adding these stretches to your routine after a shower or a walk, when your muscles are warmed up.
