Create a 10-minute stretching and mobility routine for someone who sits at a desk all day.

Where I feel stiff: [e.g. neck, lower back, hips]
Where I can do it: [e.g. at my desk / on a mat at home]
Any pain or injuries: [DETAILS OR NONE]

List each move with how long to hold it, simple step-by-step instructions and what I should feel. Add three one-minute moves I can do between meetings. Keep every move gentle, and tell me which signs mean I should stop and see a doctor or physiotherapist.

Set a reminder to stand up every hour. Short breaks through the day help more than one long stretch.
