Some eye, wrist, hand/finger, shoulder, upper back, lower back, hamstring and neck exercises that you can do while you're working at a desk! Don't forget to get up and walk around throughout the day to give your eyes a rest and the rest of your body a good stretch!

2. Wrist exercise. To exercise your wrist, extend your arms in front of you and raise and lower your hands several times (i.e., flap your hands and wrists up and down). Then rotate your hands 10 times-alternating palms up and palms down. Repeat this sequence five times.

3.Hand and finger exercise. To exercise your hands and fingers, make a fist and hold it tight for approximately two seconds. Then, place your palms down and spread and hold your fingers wide apart for five seconds. Repeat the sequence five times.

4. Shoulder exercise #1: To exercise your shoulders, lift and roll your shoulders forward five times and then backward five times. Use a wide circular motion and try to keep your head straight and motionless while moving your shoulders. Repeat this sequence as desired.

5. Shoulder exercise #2: Another way to exercise your shoulders is to shrug your shoulders up toward your ears. Hold the position for approximately two seconds and then recover to the starting position. Repeat the sequence five times.

6. Upper back and shoulder exercise. To exercise your upper back as well as your shoulders, reach your arms up overhead, alternating right and left arm in a climbing motion. Repeat the sequence 10 times on each side.

7. Lower-back exercise. To exercise the muscles in your lower back while in a seated position, bend down between your knees toward the floor, reaching as far as you can ( palms flat).

8. Hamstring exercise. To stretch your hamstrings while in a seated position, lock your hands together around your knees and pull your knees to your chest and hold for approximately five seconds. then release your hands and return to the starting position. Repeat the sequence five times.

Then, turn far to the right and hold for three seconds. Next, drop your chin gently to your chest before returning your head slowly to the upright (starting) position. Repeat the sequence five times.
