Sitting for 10 hours a day doesn’t just make you tired it reshapes your body.
From neck stiffness in the first hour to gluteal amnesia and spinal compression later on, your body adapts to stillness in dangerous ways. That tight hip flexor? It's from your desk. That sore neck? From a slouched spine. Even your alertness drops as blood flow slows.
If you work a desk job, you’re probably facing postural imbalances without even realizing it. Over time, this sedentary lifestyle leads to chronic neck and shoulder tension, weak core muscles, and compressed spinal discs. This isn't about looking stiff it's about long-term health risks.
The fix? Micro movements. Small stretches, brief walks, even placing your water bottle farther away can reactivate your nervous system. This simple mobility routine can prevent pain, improve alignment, and give your body what it needs to recover from sitting.
You don’t need a full workout just consistent motion. Your spine, hips, and brain will thank you.
