Thanks for another great reminder for us PC users! I look forward to parts 2+3. Basically: ANY sitting in almost any position causes me buttocks + back pain – substantial after 1/2 to one hour. Working on a PC or reading etc. has become a problem. The get up & stretch routines do help – but as I’m well over 60 yrs they’ve become daily necessities, and some problems don’t seem to ever disappear.
Very helpful. I am recovering from a tight psoas muscle and pains from typing on the computer for several years. I wonder how many folks suffer from desk job syndrome? and don’t know it.
Thanks for the help, Otto
Its a hidden epidemic. However…I will continue bringing it into the light! Thanks Otto for sharing!
