Era shares some of her favorite quick and easy exercises you can do while sitting at your desk to help improve your posture throughout the day and avoid the slump.

Follow along on the video or read below for a summary!

1️⃣ Shoulder blade squeezes: squeeze your shoulder blades together and hold for 5 seconds. Repeat 10x

2️⃣ Sit-to-stands: just like they sound! Stand up and sit down 10 times without using your hands.

3️⃣ Standing hamstring curls/butt kicks: bend your knee and bring your heel to your butt. Do the same side 10x or alternate.

These exercises are intended as suggestions and do not replace a comprehensive evaluation by a clinician. If you experience pain, please consult with a PT or physician.

The ability to balance on 1 leg with your 👀 closed for 30 seconds SIGNIFICANTLY reduces your risk for ankle sprains! (We're talking more than 60% here 😯)

Making this simple exercise a part of your cross training improves your balance and ankle proprioception, both of which help reduce your risk for ankle sprains.

A couple of tips:

🩰Make sure your working leg is not touching your supporting leg

🩰Keep your weight evenly distributed between the front/ back and inside/outside of your foot

🩰Keep your toes long

🩰Keep your pelvis even

🩰Gently engage your abdominals and squeeze your shoulder blades together without arching your back

🩰Too easy? Try standing on something squishy!

As always, consult with a PT or other clinician if this exercise feels too unsteady or causes discomfort.
