If you’re anything like me, you’ve thrown a heap of work, training, and life into a body that’s been around the block a few times.

.

Add long stints of sitting, driving, plant rooms, desks, or cabins, and before you know it…
your back starts feeling jammed, stiff, or just “not right.”

.

Nothing dramatic.
Just that dull “something’s off” feeling.

.

My go-to fix (when the back feels cooked):

.

Below are my three favourite, low-risk, 2-minute back-unwind movements.

They’re:

• Conservative

• Joint-friendly

• Nervous-system calming

• Designed to restore movement, not smash you

 

How to use them onsite!

∴ Break up your day

∴ Find a 1 × 1 metre space (beside your desk, room, or site office)

∴ Run through one or all three

∴ Spend 1–2 minutes, not 20

∴ Little resets done often beat one heroic session done rarely.
