Health@Google: Deskbound by Kelly Starrett
Posted on 12. Feb, 2012 by admin in Brakes
Health@Google presents: “DeskBound” by Kelly Starrett Everyone knows that prolonged sitting at a desk is hard on your body and health, and an inevitable part of being a functioning modern human. The problem is, sitting is a high-skill and creatively demanding activity. Everyone should be able to perform basic maintenance on themselves. This includes knowing how survive the high risk, high stakes game of being “desk bound”. Armed with a pinch of game theory, a dose of anatomy, and a picture of one of the all-time best sitters, you can transform any desk into a platform for thriving. Kelly Starrett founded San Francisco CrossFit with his wife and fellow athlete Juliet. Since opening its doors in 2005, this athletic training center has become one of the prime coaching resources for reigning Olympians, strength athletes, national and world champions, tri-athletes, runners, recreational athletes, and coaches alike.

@MrZerofate I had the same problem. Google “Zenith Sports”. £2. 90 each plus £2. 00 p+p. The Lacrosse Balls are NCAA regulation balls. DO NOT buy from Newitts, they only sell training balls which are useless. Enjoy!

why does Youtube post full names of people without there permission and when flagging them they seem to create a new search link instead of deleting it. . . . i’ve seen nice peoples names defamed by this site so becarefull check your own name on google search link it might be used on youtube and if it is they will never take it down !!!

Thanks for the talk, what alternative product can I use instead of a lacrosse ball? I’m based in the uk and it appears quite difficult to obtain one!

Kelly is awesome.
I started doing the couch stretch after seeing him for physical therapy for a bad knee (which was caused by my tight hips).
My knee hurt every time I had cycled for the 3 months beforehand. The pain disappeared the same day I started stretching properly.
Thanks Kelly
