ERGONOMIC AND MOVEMENT-FRIENDLY OFFICES
Ergonomic and movement-friendly offices are designed to improve comfort, health, and productivity by promoting proper posture and frequent movement. They feature adjustable desks, supportive chairs, and workspace layouts that reduce strain on the body. Incorporating standing desks, ergonomic accessories, and space for stretching or walking encourages circulation and reduces fatigue. These offices help prevent pain, boost focus, and create a healthier work environment.

ARE YOU A TEN? - THE 10RM WEIGHTLIFTING METHOD
The 10RM (Repetition Maximum) method in weightlifting refers to lifting a weight that you can only perform for 10 repetitions before failure. This method is often used to assess strength endurance and develop hypertrophy (muscle growth). The 10RM represents approximately 75-80% of your one-rep max (1RM), making it an effective middle ground between strength and muscle-building training. It helps improve both muscular endurance and size, while minimizing the risk of injury fro
