This is actually a great stretch routine to do in the office! There’s no bending over or other awkward moves, so you could freely do them in your cubicle or in an open-plan room without feeling embarrassed. The only thing I recommend, for the ladies, is perhaps not doing them in a skirt.
These stretches are particularly good to do at work because they are specially targeted to bring blood back to all the parts of the body that get stiff from sitting in a chair, like your neck and shoulders. They’ll really help you loosen up when you’ve been slouching over a keyboard all day.
They’re pretty light stretches that mostly target the upper body, so they’re not an especially good set to use for a cool-down. But they’re perfect for the middle of the day, when you’re feeling stiff at work!
