“How to Prevent Flat and Sagging Buttocks in Middle Age from Sitting Too Long”

Middle-aged office workers who sit for long periods of time flatten their buttocks without realizing it. According to related studies, if you work mainly sedentary for about 5 years, the lower body muscles are damaged and weakened. In particular, blood flow is insufficient and hip muscles are weakened, which affects pelvic stability and rotational power. This means that if you work sedentary for five days a week, it is difficult to prevent a flat butt even if you exercise on the weekend. Find out why and how to prevent sagging flat buttocks in middle age.

◆ Caused by prolonged sitting in the wrong posture

Working while sitting in one position can cause your pelvic rotation to lean forward and put pressure on your spine. In particular, if you sit in the wrong posture, you can hardly activate your buttock muscles. As a result, the hip muscles lose their shape and become sagging. Usually, if you sit down for about 5 years and do your work, the muscles of the lower body, including the hip, will greatly atrophy.

◆ Slow blood flow also adversely affects the buttock muscles

When you sit for a long time, the flow of blood, that is, the blood flow slows down. This is why your head gets blurry when you sit and work, and when you lie down and sleep for a long time, your muscles don’t move well. When blood flow slows down, it also affects the buttock muscles.

◆ Get up and move, even for 30 seconds

To prevent your hips from flattening, you need to get up and move, even if it’s only for 30 seconds. This will circulate your blood and activate your muscles. It’s good to do this every 15 minutes if possible and at least once every 30 minutes. Try pacing down the office hallway or moving around in the break room. Your head will also clear up.

◆ Do not sit still let’s stand up

If possible, working standing up at a standing desk will not only prevent flat hips, but it will also improve your overall health. Standing desks are allowed for office workers in Scandinavian countries such as Sweden, Denmark and Norway. Studies have shown that standing at a standing desk increases productivity and significantly lowers the incidence of obesity, heart disease and diabetes.

◆ Massage with a foam roller

You can see foam rollers in gyms and gyms. A foam roller is a cylindrical shaped device. You can use it to massage and relax your muscles. Athletes also use this device a lot. One thing to note is that it is effective if you massage each body part for about 30 seconds using a foam roller every day.

◆ Diversify the type of exercise

If you do the same exercise every day, your muscles adapt and become less effective. Experts say, “It is good to strengthen different parts of the body evenly by diversifying the exercises.”
