When I'm working as a fitness writer, I spend a lot of time at my desk, while in my other role as a fitness trainer, I’m on my feet coaching clients. Both come with their own physical challenges, but combined I'm often left with hunched shoulders, tight hips and stiff muscles. Thankfully, I’ve found that all you need is 15 minutes and a few stretches to mobilize your body.
I’ve recently launched a new stretch and destress class for staff and students at my local university, and these are some of the go-to moves we use to relieve upper-body tension. In the video I’m doing the circuit seated, but it can also be done standing.
