6. Outer thigh pain

Exercise: The heel bend stretch

Pain in the thigh region is quite common, and can often be solved through exercises that increase your flexibility without having to see an orthopedist. Try this exercise for a couple of weeks and you’ll notice the difference too.

Instructions:

Lie on your stomach, while bending one leg up.
Wrap the raised leg in a towel.
Gently pull the towel back to help you bend the heel down towards the buttocks.
Maintain the stretch for 30 seconds, then switch legs.

7. Slouching

Exercise: Resistance stretch

If you feel you’re slouching and have a hard time holding your back straight for a prolonged period of time, this chest-expanding exercise may be what you need.

Instructions:

Stand by a doorway or a tree (if you’re outdoors).
Place one hand on the tree or doorway to maintain balance, and turn your body away from it until you feel the stretch in your arm and chest.
Maintain this position for 30 seconds, then switch hands.

8. Prolonged sitting damage

Exercise: Sideways roll stretch

This exercise is perfect after a long day at the office, and will help prevent pains in the lower back and buttocks. You will need a long, hard pillow, or a rolled up yoga mat or towel.

Instructions:

Lie on your back and place the pillow/towel under your buttocks.
Stretch your hands to your sides, and lay them on the floor.
Bend and lift one knee, and turn the other leg away from it (If you’ve lifted the right knee, turn your left leg to face left) until you feel a stretch in the buttocks, as well as a slight twist in your spine.
Hold this position for a few seconds, then return to lying down.
Repeat three times per leg.
