Is your desk setup really the problem? 🤔

If you have been sore from sitting, you have probably been told your chair, your screen height, or your "posture" is to blame. The research tells a different story.

A controlled trial of 3,000 workers found ergonomic training made no long-term difference to back pain. Big reviews since have reached the same conclusion: tweaking the workstation does not prevent work-related pain.

What does help? Movement and strength. The same research found resistance exercise eased workplace aches and pains.

Your body is not a fragile machine that breaks if you sit "wrong". It is strong and adaptable. Sore from sitting is simply a nudge to get up and move.

Try movement snacks through the day, a lunchtime walk, or a bit of strength work you enjoy.

Sore from sitting at work? Our team gives honest, evidence-informed advice. Get in touch.

This Men's Health Week, here's the stuff blokes tend to ignore.

When something starts niggling, most of us swing to one of two extremes. Flog through it and hope it fades, or stop completely and give up the things we love.

Neither one is the answer. Often a ni**le settles on its own. The skill is listening to your body and knowing the difference between normal soreness and something worth a closer look.

A quick check-in early usually means you adjust and keep going, rather than push into a flare or pull the pin altogether.

If something has been hanging around, let's sort out a plan that fits.

Book a chat. No pressure, just a conversation.

You don’t need to live in the gym for movement to “count” 👏
Movement can look like:

🚶 Walking the dog
🌱 Gardening
🧹 Housework
⚽ Playing with the grandkids
🏋️ Strength training
…and everything in between.

This Exercise Right Week, we’re encouraging people to rethink what physical activity can look like and find something that works for their life.
