Do you suffer from a desk job derrière??
If the majority of your day is spent sitting and staring at a computer screen, you may not realize it, but you could be suffering from something called atrophy of the gluteal muscle group – or more commonly known as "office chair butt." If instead of a round, firm booty that looks like a peach you have something that resembles a soft pillow or a melted candle, your office chair could be to blame.
Michael Milicia, an occupational therapist at the Cleveland Clinic, says, "A lack of conditioning in your gluteus maximus and surrounding tissue leads to weakness, making it build up fat tissue and appear flatter or saggy." But don't go out looking to buy a new chair. It's not the chair's fault ... it's yours. You're sitting too long.
Experts say office workers need to get up and move around throughout the course of the work day because it's best for their buns.
