Spot jogs | Seated overhead

Hours of sitting on a plane can cause discomfort and even strains due to bad posture. Here’s how to be a confident frequent flyer with improved circulation!

Spot jogs Muscles/areas activated: hamstrings, glutes   Place ankles through Loopz at desired tension, stand with feet apart enough to feel resistance in band. Hands can hold onto stable surface or wall for support, or place hands on waist to also develop sense of centering. Inhale.   Exhale and lift right heel behind body towards butt. Knees are bent and hips facing squarely front. Hold position 2 counts.   Inhale and place right foot down. Exhale to lift left heel towards butt. Repeat ‘jogs’ 20-30 times on alternate legs. Note: Can also ‘double’ up by exhaling for two jogs and inhaling for two.   Seated over head Muscles/area activated: shoulders, delts and cervical back   Sit on chair, posture erect. Place Loopz under shoulder blades, position under armpits and slip thumbs through ends of band. Bend both arms at side. Inhale.   Exhale and stretch arms overhead, drop chest downwards to prevent overarching in lower back, pressing navel to spine. Hold position 10 counts.   Inhale and return to starting position. Repeat 5-15 sets.
