Unfortunately, you may be suffering from a well-known but (too) often overlooked ailment: a muscular imbalance in your back.  <\/p>\n\n<p>To sum up, our bodies were developed over the centuries to be in motion, running, carrying loads, jumping, throwing&#8230; and then came the sedentary life. Where we human beings used to spend 12 to 16 hours a day in movement and action, we&#8217;ve now moved on to a life where we sit for between 6 and 8 hours a day. And when you do more than 4 hours of sport a week, you&#8217;re now considered super-sporty. See the discrepancy?<br\/>Translated with DeepL.com (free version)    <\/p>\n\n<p>Sitting is comfortable, isn&#8217;t it? So our bodies relax and our muscles rest. Which is fine for a short time. But when it becomes the majority of our day, our body adapts to this new lifestyle. The result is reduced range of motion in joints, hips and shoulders.    <\/p>\n\n<p>Maintaining the same position will create muscular imbalances, with the same muscles always in extension and their antagonists (on the other side) always at rest because they are supported.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>So what are the solutions? <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n<p>If your job requires you to stay behind your desk, the ideal solution would be to have an ergonomic workstation: like an ergonomic chair or a sit-stand desk that allows you to get up regularly. The transition may be a little painful, as your little muscles that used to sleep for 8 hours at work will have to work a little harder. But after a month, you&#8217;ll feel fitter, both physically and mentally, after just one day!  <\/p>\n\n<p>Otherwise, try to get up as often as possible and walk a few steps.<\/p>\n\n<p>You could choose a physical activity that&#8217;s good for you. Yoga, for example, is great for taking care of your joints, flexibility, spine and abdominal muscles. <\/p>\n\n<p>Of course, I&#8217;m going to tell you all about our fabulous yoga studio, which offers a wide variety of yoga, fitness and mobility classes! But here we&#8217;re not just promoting our services, we&#8217;re also trying to invite you to do something good for yourself. <\/p>\n\n<p>There are a plethora of yoga postures that can help, but here&#8217;s a sequence you can practice to lengthen and relax your back. You could do them every day in the morning or at bedtime, or both. Whenever you want.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yoga postures to relieve back pain<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"yoga for the back - The cat stretch (Marjar&#xE2;sana) or cat-cow stretch\" class=\"wp-image-19519\" style=\"width:165px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-768x961.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19519\" style=\"width:165px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min-768x961.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zero-gravite.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSCF4940-min.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.
