ALBERTA CENTRE FOR ACTIVE LIVING: STRETCHING @ YOUR DESK VIDEOS
 
http://www.centre4activeliving.ca/workplace/trr/tools.html


________________________________

New faster and easier downloading

EDMONTON, AB: New Stretching @ Your Desk videos have just been released by
the Alberta Centre for Active Living. 

The Stretching @ Your Desk and Yoga @ Your Desk (launched in June) videos
are part of the Alberta Centre for Active Living's Physical Activity @ Work
website (http://www.centre4activeliving.ca/workplace/). 

Available both in English and French, each stretching video takes about as
long as a coffee break. Certified fitness consultant Lindsay Wright (Be Fit
for Life Coordinator at Alberta's Provincial Fitness Unit) takes you through
a series of stretches that give you a refreshing active break in the middle
of your day. 

The exercises in these videos are designed to counter the effects of sitting
at your desk by focusing on stretches for your back, neck and shoulders. The
exercises come in stages so that you can work on different parts of your
body.

Most of the exercises can be done right in front of your computer monitor.
No need for special clothes or equipment. 

The Stretching @ Your Desk and Yoga @ Your Desk videos are now streamed for
faster downloading. To make them easier to access, you can play them using
QuickTime, Real Player, VideoLan or Windows Media Player. (Windows Media
Player is best if you have firewall issues with QuickTime or Real Player.)

The Alberta Centre for Active Living is affiliated with the Faculty of
Physical Education and Recreation at the University of Alberta and supported
by the Alberta Sport, Recreation, Parks & Wildlife Foundation and the
Alberta Government.
