Desk Body
How to Undo the Damage of Sitting All DayBy Adrian West
Length54m
About this audiobook
By mid-afternoon your lower back is stiff, your neck aches, and your hips protest every time you stand up. Your shoulders curl forward, and the headache that shows up from nowhere probably starts in your neck. Sitting for most of your waking life has a cost, and you feel it daily.
Desk Body is a practical maintenance manual for people who work in chairs. It starts with a short desk reset routine you can use right away, then goes part by part: what is really going on with your back, how to deal with neck tension and a forward head position, and how to get your hips working properly again. You will get an honest look at standing desks, ideas for fitting movement into your day in small bursts, and a clear guide to setting up your workspace.
The book ends with a 30-day plan to put it all together. It is not a gym program, just simple habits to help your body cope with the desk.
