Nowadays, people are striving to get an office job. Whether it is being a lawyer or just call representative in a cubicle, an office job is seen as the best one to get. However, 80% of people who have office jobs that require them to sit for long periods of time have lower back problems and pain. According to my research, lower back pain is predominant among workers in office settings as well as those who are engaged in manual labor. Sitting for long periods of time can alter your spine leaving it with a curve.To avoid lower back pain and curving of your lower spine, get out of your chair and stretch for at least 10 minutes. Take a walk around your office building to stretch out your legs and spine.
In the past, I mainly thought that low back pain mainly resulted from hard labor or from injury. Who knew that the dream office job you want could be a risk to your health. Here are some exercises to help you beat the chances of low back pain and stiffness in other parts of your body from your office job!
