If we are not careful, muscle imbalances can creep up on us over time, especially since we spend a lot of our lives working. This is likely done often in a seated position. When you are in that position, what tends to happen is your back muscles get stretched, while your chest gets tight. Your upper traps may also get quite stiff. This can lead to issues like shoulder and neck pain, as well as possible injuries.
To help prevent this from happening, there is a great exercise you can do. This is an easy office workout that you can do anywhere at any time, as it doesn’t require any equipment.
What you do is retract and depress your shoulder blades. When you do this, you are utilizing your back muscles, while stretching the top of your shoulders, as well as your chest. When you do this throughout the day, you’ll be helping to prevent bad imbalances from slowly taking hold of your body.
As you are doing this exercise, you can also throw in another exercise known as the chin tuck. This is a simple desk exercise you can do where you bring your head straight back. You should have no pain with this. In this way, you are correcting muscle imbalances in your neck.
In conclusion, this is a very simple chair exercise you can do while sitting and is an amazing posture corrector. Doing this will help to engage muscles that you likely aren’t using enough. This will help to protect your body from bad posture changes and other issues occurring.
