I sit at a desk eight hours a day and my hips used to feel locked up by 3pm. The routines here are short enough that I actually do them, and my lower back stiffness has noticeably eased. The posture cues during the sitting segments were the part that clicked for me.

Llevo semanas sentada frente al ordenador y las rodillas se me quedaban rígidas al levantarme. Las rutinas son cortas y fáciles de seguir sin equipo. Solo me hubiera gustado más ejercicios enfocados en la zona lumbar.

As rotinas são curtas e fáceis de encaixar entre reuniões, só senti falta de mais variações para os quadris.

Saya kerja di meja lapan jam sehari dan sendi lutut selalu terasa kaku waktu petang. Rutin dalam kursus ini ringkas dan mudah diikuti, jadi saya benar-benar buat setiap hari. Lepas dua minggu, kekakuan bahu dan postur duduk saya jauh lebih baik.

Die Übungen sind kurz genug für die Mittagspause und meine Schultern fühlen sich nach zwei Wochen deutlich lockerer an.

यह कोर्स डेस्क पर बैठे-बैठे जकड़े हुए जोड़ों के लिए बहुत मददगार साबित हुआ। हर सुबह बस दस मिनट की रूटीन से कंधों और कमर की अकड़न काफी कम हो गई है। पोस्चर पर दिए गए सुझाव भी रोज़मर्रा में लागू करना आसान है।

Als jemand, der acht Stunden am Schreibtisch sitzt, war ich skeptisch, ob ein paar Übungen wirklich etwas bringen. Aber die Routinen sind so kurz, dass ich sie zwischen Meetings einbauen kann, und meine Schultern fühlen sich deutlich lockerer an. Besonders die Erklärungen zur Haltung haben mir geholfen, schlechte Gewohnheiten zu erkennen. Ein paar Videos hätten etwas langsamer sein dürfen, damit man besser mitmachen kann. Trotzdem eine klare Empfehlung für alle mit Bürojob.

The hip mobility drills alone were worth it, my knees stopped aching after long sitting stretches.

ปกติทำงานหน้าคอมทั้งวันจนไหล่และคอเริ่มติดแข็งเป็นประจำ พอมาลองทำตามคอร์สนี้ทุกเช้าประมาณสิบนาทีก็รู้สึกได้ถึงความเปลี่ยนแปลง ท่าที่สอนไม่ยากเลย เข้าใจง่ายและทำตามได้แม้ไม่เคยยืดเหยียดมาก่อน ที่ชอบมากคือมีคำอธิบายเรื่องท่านั่งที่ถูกต้องด้วย ไม่ใช่แค่ท่าออกกำลังกายอย่างเดียว ผ่านไปสามสัปดาห์อาการปวดหลังส่วนล่างที่เคยเป็นประจำหายไปเกือบหมดแล้ว

하루 종일 책상에 앉아 일하다 보니 어깨랑 고관절이 늘 뻐근했는데, 자리에서 바로 할 수 있는 동작들이라 정말 실용적이에요. 일주일쯤 따라 했더니 오후만 되면 굳던 허리가 한결 편해졌고 자세도 자연스럽게 신경 쓰게 됩니다.
