10 Exercises to Do After a Long Day Sitting at Your Desk

The fact is that many of the activities we perform daily, especially those involving our hands, can cause wrist stiffness and pain. This is especially true for office workers. A few basic exercises can help increase this area’s mobility while also alleviating any soreness.

  1. Remove any items from the surface of your desk by standing in front of it.
  2. Change the position of your hands so that you may place your palms on the desk, fingers facing your body and on the desk’s edge.
  3. With your arms stretched out in front of you, gently press down toward the desk. Check to see that your shoulders are not tense.
  4. To complete, keep your wrists in this posture for a few seconds before moving them in a circular motion.
