Get Fit: I want a folding vegetable.

[caden_varn]

Hello all, looking for help here.

I hate exercising but I realized that working on the computer and spending my entire free time on the computer is running my back.

Any tips for exercises that will help me not look like that Victor Hugo iconic character?

Thanks.

As someone with similar habits, I sympathise. A few good basic low-impact options are walking, cycling & swimming, although you may find cycling puts other strains on your back. If you can get into some green space for an hour or so and walk, it can do wonders, not just for your back, but general mood too. If you can, drag a friend out with you.

While they are not needed, you can look at getting a walking pole (or pair). I have rheumatoid arthritis, and when it is flaring up and my ankels are stiff, or I've just strained a muscle or something, it can make a real difference. Also helps you go further & work more muscle groups.
