The Healthy Webmaster

Just curious what some of you do to keep fit and avoid work related injuries(hahahah - I'm actually serious).

Personally I don't do anything and my wrists / elbows / fingers often throb after a LONG day of work. I should start stretching and I"d like to and hopefully I will soon. Just curious what some of you do to keep fit and not pay the price for excessive hours on a computer.

Thanks

 

I dont do anything
I sit on PC continuously for 13-14 Hours a Day ya I get all sort of pain in my Wrist and also Ass

 

I run a few miles a day, and my wife and I eat very healthy (she is pregnant)...I used to ride my bike several miles a day, but a lack of trails where I lived forced me to turn to running...

 

LOL! I have a feeling alot of people are going to admit the same thing lol. It's just to easy not to get up and do anything and suddenly it's sleep time.

 

seriously, a good idea to avoid RSI is to buy a pair of those squeeze plier thingies, they help a lot

in fact, I'm going to use them right now!

 

I usually bike to the gym a few times a week.. Other than that I don't really usually do anything.

 

I know what you mean

 

I don't do anything

 

I play football occasionally. That takes away all my pains.

 

I used to ride my bike and play basketball, but not any more, i tell myself I should get back to it, but there is always something in the way. I will do it though, during the next couple of months.

 

get few different types of mice and keyboards

switch them around, use the opposite hand etc

also, don't stare at the screen all the time, give yourself 5 minute break every hour, look at something far away so your eye ball can relax

I replaced my chair with a fitness ball and my back pain is gone
