Here’s how:If we aren’t getting to the gym or doing our morning and evening commutes, we’re essentially moving from bed, to our working from home desks, and back to bed.
Tim Kayode, from stretch clinic Flexology, recommends doing activation moves rather than static stretches before jumping into a workout. “Activation work is important to make sure we’re looking after our posterior chain, so the muscles in the back side of our bodies, which often get short and tight.”
The most essential part of our body to activate is our glutes: “They’re the most important place to keep mobile because we use them for everything,” says Kayode. “But we sit on them for such long periods of time nowadays. Also, our glutes and hips connect the upper half to the lower half of our body, so if they’re off that’s going to stimulate other parts of the body to go wrong too.
