I’m a personal trainer – this is the one move I recommend to anyone who works at a desk

Businesswoman having neck ache due to work over load and bad posture.

Ever heard of a personal trainer who spends more time at a desk than she does training clients? That’s me. I have clients, yet my main job is as a fitness journalist, which has many positives, the main one being that I can totally empathise with people who love training but have desk jobs.

As a result, most of my clients come to me feeling stiff, and I can see why. If there’s something we can all agree on, it’s that we probably spend too much time sitting. Too much sitting causes your thoracic spine (or T-spine, the mid-back) to round, whether that’s over your laptop, phone, or steering wheel, placing extra stress on your neck and shoulders.
