Computer professionals face many threats to their health. Their eyes, fingers and back being most vulnerable as most of their time they are at their desk which, many a times, leads to the increase in their weight. This article is meant for people who have very long sitting at their desks and don’t time to exercise at home or a gym. The true advice for them is that they should take 5-7 (not 10) seconds to keep their bodies fit (to some extent). All of the following exercises can be done while sitting at your desk and you are not at all required to move from your desk but the main point is that you should exercise your body parts frequently to keep yourself fit and in shape.
Eyes
Computer professionals keep looking into the monitors of their PCs for longer hours sitting at the desk and this results in weakening their eyes as they keep staring at the same screen and from the same distance for long hours. This may also result in dryness of their eyes. To keep yourself from such a situation give an exercise to your eyes while sitting at your desk. Atleast, 5 times in a day keep staring anything for at least 10 seconds that is 50 meters (or more) distant from you. The more the distance, the better it is for your eyes. What this whole exercise does is that when you are looking into the computer monitor, the eye lenses become smaller as the object you are looking at is closer but when suddenly you look at something that is far from you, the eye lens opens wide which is an exercise for the lenses.
Also, what you can do is 5-6 times in a day, just close your eyes, put your index fingers on your eyelids & rotate eyelids 5 times clockwise and anti-clockwise as well. And you have to do all this while sitting at your desk, no need to get up to get the eyes fit.
Shoulders
The shoulders of computer professionals are another body parts that get affected for a long time desk sitting job. Raise your hands or rotate shoulders & hands clockwise and anti-clockwise to charge them. You can also put something like dumbbell (say a paperweight on your desk) to give the same effect. Just remember that when you raise both of your hands, you keep them upwards for atleast 10 seconds.
Other tips:
- Eat plenty of water. Its best for your well being.
- 2-3 times breath heavily like you are running.
- Never eat at your desk ‘cos if you start eatiing at your desk, you won’t get up to eat.
- Eat food that is nutrient and not has much fat.
- Take a long walk (morning or night) on weekends or go to gym.
