Sitting too much is wrecking your body, but what if you could sneak in movement while stuck in the car?

Whether you're commuting to work, driving the kids around, or just sitting at your desk, too much sitting can lead to stiff joints, back pain, and tight hips. But you don’t need a full workout to feel better.

Movement snacks (small, intentional movements throughout the day) can be more beneficial than a full length workout - especially if keeping it simple means you actually do it!

In this episode of The Body Nerd Show, I sit down with Hope Zvara, founder of Mother Trucker Yoga®, to talk about simple ways to bring mobility into your long drives and improve your flexibility in just a few minutes a day.

Hope’s super practical tips will help you feel your best… even on your busiest days. 🙌

You’ll learn:

• How movement snacks can be more beneficial than exercise
• How to bring mobility into your long drives
• How to improve your health and flexibility in just a few minutes every day
