A mobility pair targeting hips, ankles, and shoulders. Ideal for desk workers or anyone feeling stiff from sitting too long.

You'll start in a deep squat sit – not working, just resting there and letting gravity open up your hips and ankles. Then you'll stand and roll your shoulders backward, reversing the forward hunch that creeps in throughout the day. It's gentle, but you'll notice the difference.

Both movements counteract common posture problems from prolonged sitting. Research shows deep squat holds can improve hip and ankle mobility over time, while shoulder rolls help release tension in the upper traps and restore range of motion.
