Article Source: HealthSnare.com
Computer related jobs topped the line of the work industry nowadays. More and more people are spending more than 8 hours of their time per day sitting in front of their computers. Knowing our bodies are not design for such static positions, we have to think of means to release muscle strains or tensions that we get for working long hours in such situations. A few good slimming exercises which you can execute while you are in front of your computer will help you stay slim and healthy. You can try on the following exercises:
1. While seating on your chair and typing on your keyboard, you can wiggle your hips. Do it in a mild way for at least few minutes.
2. If you are using a swivel chair in your office, you can twist your body. This is syninymous to doing the dance called "The Twist" just in a seating position.
3. You can perform a leg lift while working. Put your knees together and raise your heels upward and down. Repeat the exercise for a couple of minutes.
4. You can also lift your legs similar to marching in place.
5. Swaying to the left and right while working also helps you relax your back.
6. Roll your ankles regularly. This aids blood circulation.
7. Roll your wrist regularly which is good in preventing carpal tunnel syndrome which you can get if you spend long hours of typing.
8. Contract your abdominal muscles, hold them for a few seconds then release. Repeat this for minutes.
9. You can also execute spine and chest stretch. You can do this by having your lower back rest on a chair. Put your hands behind your neck and lean back. Hold it for few seconds and look up at the ceiling. You can repeat this a few times during the day.
10. Finally, once in a while stretch you're your arms, neck and torso.
