11 Posture Fixes for the Indian Work-From-Home Generation

4. Build a five-minute trainer routine

Celebrity trainers are popular for a reason: they simplify what to do. Yasmin Karachiwala’s gentle routine focuses on mobility and posture-friendly moves you can do without equipment (as reported by The Economic Times). A useful five-minute sequence includes chin tucks, shoulder blade squeezes, a chest opener, a seated cat–cow, and a standing hamstring reach. Do each move for 30–45 seconds and repeat once if time allows. These movements counteract the effects of slouching and improve stiffness from long sitting. You can do this sequence during a tea break or right after lunch, and it works in small spaces like a balcony or a hallway. Over weeks, the routine reinforces stronger alignment and fewer aches, especially when combined with the desk tweaks above.
