What did you do over the holiday weekend to help your posture?
I want you to sit back (you probably already are) and just think of all the things that you do in a day leaning forward with your arms out in front of you… for example, eating, working at a computer, cleaning, gardening, among many others. Now, what is your sitting posture like? Do you slouch on the couch at night to watch TV because your couch is actually too big for you? Or what about sleeping… do you sleep on your side or use 2 pillows if you are on your back? So looking a

Have you ever thought about what sitting and staring at a screen all day does to your eyes?
We, at FitTime5, have been trying to educate you about all the dangers of sitting all day behind your desk. Hopefully, by now, you realize it is not good for your back, your legs, your circulation and a myriad of other concerns. But...have you thought about what you are doing to your eyes when you sit all day and stare at a screen for hours at a time? According to the American Optometric Association (AOA), the average American employee spends seven hours per day on the comput

Are you sitting correctly!?
Have you ever taken time to think about your sitting position? As you are looking at office chairs, or your own chairs in your living room, there are a few things to consider. First, if you sit all the way back in the chair, do your feet touch the floor? They need to be well-supported. If not, the chair is probably too big or too high for you. This can lead to pain in your lower back or legs because they aren’t supported. There a couple of things that might help: 1) try a low

Look UP!
So let’s ask you a few questions… How is your posture? Do your neck muscles feel sore or tired throughout the day? Do you ever get headaches throughout the day? All day long, gravity pulls us forward and down towards the ground. This can be very damaging to your neck, shoulders and back, as well as can lead to headaches, organ failure, and a long-list of injuries and disfunctions. As we look down, the muscles in the back of our necks lengthen (and actually weaken), whereas th

FitTime5 is set to launch to over 120,000 people!

We want to get people to understand why this app is important for them to add into their daily routine

Great feedback so far!
We are getting great feedback about our app to help people move and stretch during the day! Marsha realized that she was not aware of how many people sit at their desks for more than 4 hours at a time without moving at work! Don't people realize that at a minimum they are entitled to a 15 minute break every 2 hours? Wow...Are those office chairs comfortable enough to stay sitting that long?? The FitTime5 team is ready to get this app rolling! Just keep wondering what is going
