Sitting for eight hours stiffens the hips and rounds the shoulders. This circuit hits the muscles a desk job ignores: glutes, hamstrings, back, and grip.

Run the four moves back to back, rest a minute, and repeat four rounds. If you finish feeling like you had more in the tank, go up a bell size next time.
