36) Preparing Desk Workers for Peak Performance with Elev8 Alex

Today's conversation is with Elev8 Alex, a personal trainer with a Bsc Sports and Exercise Science and a NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist. We discuss the commonly found challenges from a sedentary desk job when it comes to performing at our best in the gym.  If you want to start small, we provide key areas you can focus on including your desk set up, little actions you can take throughout your day and 4 movements you can add without disrupting your work. The best approach is one of Prehab instead of Rehab, and we cover the specific movements we can address in the warm up for specific sessions including pressing, pulling, and leg training.  Finally, if you wanted to taking it further and build a more fuller and more regular mobility routine as part of a morning routine or active rest day Alex gives us some ideas of how we can get started.
