Summary:
Sitting
can wreak havoc on your health, and not just in the form of minor aches and pains. Too much
sitting
contributes to a host of diseases - from obesity and diabetes to cancer and depression. The typical seated office worker suffers from more musculoskeletal injuries than those workers who do daily manual labor.
Sitting
is as much an occupational risk as is lifting heavy weights on the job.
Sitting
literally shortens your life. Your chair is your enemy, and it is murdering your body. Physical therapist Dr. Kelly Starrett, author of Becoming a Supple Leopard, unveils a detailed battle plan for surviving our chair-centric society. Creative solutions for reducing the amount of time you spend perched on your backside, as well as strategies for transforming your desk into a dynamic, active workstation that can improve your life. Learn how to: Easily identify and fix toxic body positions. Eradicate back, neck, and shoulder pain. Mitigate carpel tunnel syndrome forever. Organize and stabilize your spine and trunk. Walk, hinge, squat, and carry with peak skill. Perform daily body maintenance work using 14 mobility templates for resolving pain and increasing range of motion. Dr. Kelly Starrett is the author of the New York Times bestseller Becoming a Supple Leopard, which has revolutionized how coaches, athletes, and everyday humans approach movement and athletic performance.
