A free 5 minute sample
Change position, then move gently
Use this as a general movement break, not a personalised exercise prescription. Keep the range comfortable and skip any movement that does not suit you.
- Stand or walk for a minute. Step away from the screen if you can, and let your arms relax.
- Roll your shoulders slowly. Make a few comfortable circles in each direction without forcing the movement.
- Turn your head gently. Look to one side, return to centre, then look to the other side within a comfortable range.
- Move your wrists and hands. Open and close your hands, then make a few easy wrist circles.
- Walk or change position again. Take a moment to notice how you feel before returning to work.
The five steps are a sample, not five minutes of prescribed repetitions. Set a comfortable pace. Take regular short breaks from computer work when practical.
