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.

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

All it takes is 5-minutes!?
Have you ever considered what stretching at work for 5-minutes, 2-3 times per day can do for your mood and productivity? Did you know that you can lighten your mood and clear your mind by increasing your blood flow and circulation and releasing endorphins. You can also avoid the 3 o’clock slump by boosting your energy level with stretching. And.. what about a change in your posture…. you certainly don’t want to be permanently “bent-over” because you keep your back in the same
