1) Cobra/ Prone Press Up This position is great for resetting the spine after sitting. To do the exercise: • Keep low back & hips in contact with the ground • Only press up to where you’re comfortable • Don’t worry about speed • Repeat 10-15 times • Breath deeply

2) Foam Roll Pec Stretch This a great exercise to open the chest for those who sit a lot. If you’re a beginner, keep the arms extended for a deep stretch. Inhale on the way up, and exhale on the way down. Complete 10-15 reps, breathing slowly and deeply.
