Reduce Injuries and Increase Mobility All From Your Desk
Like a lot of people in the business world I sit at a desk a lot of the day. Most of us desk sitters have heard at one point or another that sitting all day has been linked to everything from back pain to heart disease. GET SCARED! Being a pretty active person I try to combat these adverse health risks by putting into action any helpful knowledge that I can attain on the subject. I am an avid “CrossFitter” and thus try to workout using a full range of motion for most exercises. Because my right foot is 2 sizes smaller than my left foot and has a very tight heel cord among other things this poses some pretty big problems with my biomechanics. In an effort to combat this I have been following Kelly Starett’s MobilityWOD in an effort to fix some of my problems. When you combine my natural mobility problems with the fact that I sit at a desk most of the day you can end up pretty tight and thus injury prone. Here is a video that I thought would be helpful for anyone in my situation or just someone who wants to have good biomechanics while sitting at a desk all day.
