A two-minute desk reset

Start by rolling your shoulders back and gently tucking your chin to lengthen the neck. Clasp your hands and reach overhead to open the ribs and upper back, then do a slow seated twist each way to ease the spine.

Stand up and do a gentle backbend with hands on your hips to counter all that forward hunching, and stretch each hip by crossing one ankle over the opposite knee. Set a reminder to run through these once an hour, and the end-of-day stiffness largely disappears.
