10 MIN STRETCH AFTER SITTING ALL DAY (Desk Job Relief)

Stretch after sitting all day is exactly what your body needs to undo the tension built up from hours at a desk ✨ This 10-minute stretching routine targets the four areas sitting tightens most — hip flexors, hamstrings, chest, and upper back. Whether you work from home, sit at an office, study for long hours, or just had a heavy commute — this routine helps your body decompress, release stiffness, and feel like yourself again. Sitting locks your body into one shape. This stretch undoes it. No equipment needed. Beginner friendly. Perfect for after work, lunch break, or whenever your body asks for relief. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro & breath 0:15 Standing side stretches 0:45 Standing chest opener 1:20 Ragdoll 1:55 Low lunge with twist (right) 2:25 Low lunge with twist (left) 3:00 Cat-cow 3:30 Thread the needle (right) 4:05 Thread the needle (left) 4:35 Downward dog walks 5:10 Cobra pose 5:45 Child’s pose 6:20 Child’s pose with sides reach 6:55 Supine twist (right) 7:25 Supine twist (left) 8:00 Reclined butterfly 9:00 Closing & gratitude 💫 WHAT YOU'LL FEEL AFTER Open chest and relaxed shoulders Released hip flexors and longer spine Less tension in the neck and upper back Decompressed lower back Calmer, more present, ready for the rest of your day 🎯 Focus: Desk job recovery, posture, full body decompression 🧘‍♀️ Level: All levels ⏱️ Duration: 10 minutes 🪷 Equipment: None 🌸 MORE ROUTINES Post Pilates Stretch →    • 10 MIN POST PILATES STRETCH (Cool Down & R...   After Walking Stretch →    • 10 MIN STRETCH AFTER WALKING (Lower Body R...   Morning Stretching →    • 8 MINS MORNING STRETCHING FLOW [ + AFFIRMA...   ➤ Subscribe for new stretching routines every Sunday. ⚡️ FOLLOW ME Instagram →   / anastasia_derban   TikTok →   / anastasia_derban   📩 [email protected] #stretchaftersitting #deskjobstretch #stretchforofficeworkers
