Office Yoga

Spending countless hours a day working at a desk can inevitably leave you achy, stiff and tense. Banish those backaches, and beat the stress with these easy poses from celebrity yoga instructor Kristen McGee. Tone up (and calm down) right in your office or cubicle—no mat or yoga clothes required. (Looking for more moves? Go to yogaworks.com to sign up for a class with Kristin or another YogaWorks instructor.)

Eagle Arms

Combat carpal tunnel syndrome, and help tone your triceps, shoulders and back muscles
When we sit at our desk all day long, we hold tension in our shoulders. Sit erect and place your arms in front of you at a 90-degree angle. Cross your arms so that the right arm is above the left. Interlock your arms and press your palms together with the tips of your fingers pointed upwards. If you can't press your palms, you can always just press the back of your hands together. Feel yourself contracting, and take three to five breaths if you can.
