it’s the third day of the national day holiday. how is your holiday going? have you eaten well, slept well or played well?
however, we just guess that most people are still paralyzed from anywhere at work to the sofa or bed...
of course, there may also be a group of friends stuck on the road or in a scenic spot. let me ask you secretly: how are your waist, shoulders, and neck?
when the body is in the same state for a long time (sitting for a long time), it is easy to cause excessive muscle tension, soreness in the shoulders and neck, and tightness in the waist and legs.
they may be shouting for help frantically now, why don’t you give them a break!
the considerate dingxiang has prepared 6 small movements for stretching the whole body for everyone. 5 minutes is enough! get up and move quickly, your body will thank you.
read ahead
➊ everyone’s muscle tension is different, so the stretching range varies from person to person;
➋ stretching movements should be slow and controllable, and the muscles should feel moderately stretched. do not exert excessive force;
➌ keep the stretching feeling for 15 to 20 seconds and repeat for 2 groups., breathe normally and don’t hold your breath; the general recommendation is to inhale before starting the stretching exercise, exhale slowly as the stretching range gradually increases, and feel the muscles relax;
➍ if symptoms such as neck pain or dizziness occur before or during head and neck stretching, stop stretching and seek professional medical help;
➎ please do not stretch on your own if you have joint diseases that result in limited mobility or trauma.
the following movements from head to toe are all performed on one side. when doing it by yourself, do one set each on the left and right sides. you can do it in this order.

stand facing the wall
take a step forward with your left leg into a lunge
support the wall with both arms to maintain stability
keep your right heel firmly on the ground
feel the stretch in the hamstring muscles for about 10 to 15 seconds
then step forward with your left leg,
feel the stretch in the posterolateral muscles of your right calf for about 10 to 15 seconds
finally, cross your left leg and step forward to the right of your body
at this time, the heels are still touching the ground.
continue to feel the stretch on the back and inner side of your calf for about 10 to 15 seconds.
after pulling in three directions, feel your loose and light calves again
maybe you can still feel a little bit thinner.
okay, when you've finished stretching,feel your body again,isn't it a little lighter?
some final warm notes:
there are many stretching movements, and most of them can be performed while lying on the ground or on your stomach, which does seem easier.
but for those of you who like to slump (sit for a long time and move less), i still hope that everyone will stand up first! this isthe best way to combat sitting for long periods of time is to add appropriate physical activity through walking, followed by stretching.
in view of the muscle tension and joint stiffness caused by sitting for a long time, sudden exercise of greater amplitude and intensity may lead to the risk of muscle strain.
start with relatively gentle and gentle stretching exercises, which will help your body get back into better shape.
