Stretching after a hard day at work is essential to rebalance your body weight and release the tension that builds up in the back, which can end up corbando the person if they lead a sedentary life. In addition, it increases the risk of injury.
Before starting, you will need an elastic band. You can find them in almost any sports store from 5 euros. Hold it in front of you, with your fists facing forward. It is important not to grasp it by the ends, but rather in the center, so that when you stretch it, it offers more resistance.
Now pull your arms out to the sides, gradually increasing the distance between them. Keep them perpendicular to the ground. Make sure to use your back muscles, especially those between your shoulder blades, as you bring your arms and shoulders back to form a cross with your body.
Perform between 15 and 20 repetitions, slow and controlled. Naturally, if you feel that you still have stress to release, you can increase that number as much as you need. By practicing this stretch with an elastic band on a regular basis, you will return your body to its natural position, which loses its balance when you spend many hours sitting in front of the computer. Plus, you will leave behind those days when you felt drained, tense, stiff, and even sore when you got home from work.
