SIMPLE ROUTINE FOR GAMING HEALTH & FOCUS - 7 MINUTE WALKTHROUGH
By Dr. Matthew Hwu, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS·
Quick answer
A 7-minute full-body routine you can do at your chair as a warm-up before gaming. It aims to improve focus by increasing blood flow, help prevent injuries with a dynamic warm-up, and maintain posture with anti-sitting exercises. Done as a regular habit, it may also give you more energy during sessions. The goal is to start building healthy habits with one short daily routine.
PREVENT INJURIES, IMPROVE FOCUS AND IMPROVE POSTURE IN GAMING
Hey guys!
This is an older walkthrough I haven't posted yet but is a great full body routine you can perform as a great warm-up for your gaming session. It aims to help you with three things
- Improved focus with increased overall bloodflow
- General Injury Prevention through dynamic warm-up
- Postural Muscle Maintenance with Anti-sit muscle exercises
What's great about this routine is that you can do it right in front of your computer at your chair as I mention in the beginning of the video. If you adopt this as a regular habit you will likely notice the overall increase of energy you have during your sessions. This is often found with those who exercise regularly. For me it is about helping you guys begin to adopt healthy habits and if it means starting with a daily 7 minute routine then hey. I'm happy with that.
