Author and fitness expert Cindy Whitmarsh has a new desk exercise for us today. You might want to consider doing this in a chair without wheels, or back your wheely chair up against your desk or a wall so it won't slide out from under you. In any case, I think you'll agree that this exercise is a bit more exerting than some of the others we've tried. It's Monday – time to get serious about stretching.
