"We make hundreds of movement choices all day long, whether we know it or not: Sit or stand? Hip to the right or to the left? Heels or flats? So how can we make the choices that leave us feeling and moving our best? It starts with alignment-how our body is positioned throughout the day, whether working, exercising, or resting. Rethink Your Position is every body's guide to everyday alignment. Daily aches and pains can feel unavoidable, but we can start feeling better by moving better. And moving better starts with the positioning of our individual body parts, and the relationship between and among those parts and the forces or loads they experience. Professionals, experienced exercisers and new-to-movement newbies alike will discover the big and little ways our body parts move. Rethink Your Position explains how to check the way different areas are moving now, includes precision exercises to get important parts moving better, and shows how making small changes can increase your physical activity all day long-not only at the gym, but at the office, in the kitchen, on a walk with friends....even while you're sleeping"-- Provided by publisher.
